Hello every one im just woundering if some one can tell me a good place to go to get pear pc running properly on a linux machine I have tryed compiling the source code like it says to do at
http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/getstart.html
But with no luck I countinualy get errors.
I downloaded the nightly builds and tryed just running thoughs but when I go to start ppc I get this

Code: Select all

executing 'scripts/ifppc_up.setuid' ...
********************************************************************************
couldn't exec 'scripts/ifppc_up.setuid': No such file or directory
program terminated with exit code 1
exec ifconfig
[IO/3c90x] <Error> open enetif failed

and I have the scripts folder from the source folder in the dir of the compiled ppc folder.

So if any one knows where their is a good tutorail for getting pearpc setup on a linux machine that would be helpfull or if any one know what is cousing this error that would be helpfull also.

Note: Im new to the hole compiling thing with linux so if some one knows how to do that properly I will go for another try of that.

Thankfull for any help.

You just built it... You should disable that network card at first, then after installing mac osx you should worry about network config

But if you want network going look here: http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/netsetup.html

I have it running with mac os allready installed and running but that errors happen when I enable network stupport.

Did you do, "modprobe tun"? If that module doesn't exist you should enable this in the linux kernel. And did you install the 3com driver in mac osx itself?

You need to compile the if*setuid.c files and then (as root)

Code: Select all

# chown root *.setuid
# chmod u+s *.setuid

Then copy the scripts to where you run ppc

Code: Select all

# find scripts -depth -print | cpio -pvdum /my/ppc/dir

You will end up with a copy of scripts in /my/ppc/dir/scripts with all the files having the attributes preseved.
