[MiNT] PLIP
hello,
does anyone know how to establish a PLIP connection between two
Ataris, with the new plip.xif and sockdev.xdd?
I have a Falcon and a MegaST4 with MiNT1.15.12+MiNTnet1.04 installed,
both can connect to the internet by means of a modem just fine. But
now I want to transfer some big files between the two machines by
means of ftp over a direct parrallel (PLIP) connection. In the
current PLIP documentation it says that setting up the PLIP
connection is much the same as with the "old oslip.xif", but I could
not find documentation for it.
This is what I have tried sofar:
I edited /etc/hosts on both machines, added the two lines
-- /etc/hosts
192.168.0.10 FALCON
192.168.0.11 MEGAST
--
When I now try to run pppd (version 2.3.11) simultaniously on both
sides (this is what one would do for using PPP across a nullmodem
/direct serial connection), with
(FALCON) pppd -detach 192.168.0.10:192.168.0.11 /dev/centr 19200 &
(MEGAST) pppd -detach 192.168.0.11:192.168.0.10 /dev/centr 19200 &
it gives me (together with some startup messages) "Sep 8 18:53:14
pppd[48]: tcgetattr: Function not implemented" and stops.
Also commands like,
ifstats pl0, or, slattach -r 192.168.0.11 -l 192.168.0.10 -p slip -s
19200 -t /dev/centr
give "Function not implemented".
whereas,
ifstats sl0
gives me nicely "Statistics for SLIP interface sl0:" etc.
Any advice? Thanks in advance.
Dennis
