Dear List Members,
I successfully installed my orinico silver wavelan card and am happily
connecting to my iBook (running Jaguar) in classic mode via Airport.
Everything is working (except I had to deactiviate WEP; newton couldn't
find my computer with it on, even with hexadecimal code provided).
My problem now is making packages installable from my iBook. In
desperation, I tried files I downloaded and unstuffed on my pc and then
moved to the iBook by disk -- hoping to avoid download scrambling of
code-- still don't appear as packages to NCU. I tried using the
package converter utility running in classic mode but I get the
following message every time I drop a file from my desktop onto the
package converter icon:
Can't get <<class fitp>> of alias
"Macintosh HD:Users:ehumes:Desktop:newton packages:SimpleMail
folder:SimpleMail.pkg".
Clearly I'm making a newbie mistake here. Can anyone provide guidance?
Thanks,
Ed Humes
