    Hey gang,

    I am trying to network my Mac OSX with my SGI Indigo 2 and am having NO LUCK! I put in the Indigo's IP address and the little dog runs and runs and then it times out. I REALLY need to get this thing to work! HELP!

    What are the IP addresses and subnet masks of the Mac and the Indigo?

    Thanks,

    On the Mac you'd find that in the TCP/IP control panel unless you're running Mac OS X. On Mac OS X it'd be in the Network pane of System Preferences.

    I don't have much experience with Indigos, but on many UNIX machines the command "ifconfig -a" (typed to a terminal window) displays the addresses currently assigned to network interfaces.

    You may need the help of a network consultant to get this working -- networking between Macs and UNIX is far from plug-and-play.

    Thanks,
