hey Paul here's the scoop
first of all. i have found DCL AppleTalk with Escale to be very=20
reliable for pkg installation. i have not really tested the other=20
functions extensively.
as for tcp/ip i don't use the firewall, but still i added the port you=20=
mentioned to the allow list.
apache is running and i can view my index.html.
and Hey! look at that, i just tried tcp/ip and managed to connect. i=20
installed plan80 successfully. the keyboard function froze the newt=20
[although my impotent 2k does that fairly often]. this was all done=20
using manual settings in the newt dock tcp/ip. then i tried zero_conf=20
and again connected! i could get file listing temporarily, but then it=20=
washed out with a mDNS error [a communication error has occured]. then=20=
a few more error slips. also, Escale seems to require restarting if any=20=
comm errors occur.
this sure aint criticism though! you and the DCL crew are truly L337=20
VV1Z4|2|)Z! keep up le bon travail =3D)
