Hi Does anyone know if the PARNET: system works OK on the A1200? I had Parnet succesfully installed between my old WB2.0 Amiga and a WB1.3 CDTV, but the same system falls down when connecting the A1200 to the CDTV. I am pretty sure the cable is OK – (I am using the same cable that I worked just fine with the older system). Thanks Alex

I'm not sure, but the existing parnet may have problems with AmigaDOS 3.0. It definately has problems with 3.1. Has anybody gotten it to work at all with AmigaDOS 3.0? –Doug

I had my 1200 and an A500 PARNET'd for a long time with no troubles… (I did have to change the stacksize of SID2 to get it to run without crashing…) I'm running ADOS 3.0. Bob Comer — Flying high and fast with my A1200HD'030 on Autopilot! From Cheyenne, Wyoming U.S.A.

Actually, we have just sublicenced Parnet to someone for inclusion in a product. We are in the process of bringing out this newer version for general distribution (lots of little improvements along the way). — John A. Toebes, VIII — Obvious Implementations Corp. — Internet: toebes@oic.com

Alex, We're running Parnet between a 2500 and 1200 and have been doing for several weeks.

Many thanks to everyone who replied, Now knowing that the system actually works, I was able to trace the fault to a (newly arisen) problem on the parallel port of my 1.3 machine. :-< Alex Gian
