The lines in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts need to be MACADDR=AA:00:04:00:01:04 To set the MAC address to match the DECnet address, you have 1.1 - make sure that does not conflict with a machine on the real DECnet network! You only need to set tha MAC address on the ethernet card that is connected to the DECnet network. Though if the two cards are on unconnected networks there is no harm in setting both to the same value. The RPMS will install OK on RedHat 7.2 *if* you have the following two packages installed: compat-libstdc++-6.2-2.9.0.16.i386.rpm (on CD 1) ncurses4-5.0-4.i386.rpm (on CD 2) The sources do build on RH7.2 but, again, you'll need ncurses5. ncurses 5 is fine for this, you don't need v4. And I think there may be other dev packages too I'm not too sure off-hand. patrick |
