    Why not try Samba with Genesis as TCP/IP stack.

    I'm using it and it works great!

    Bye,

    Or you can even setup a simple FTP server on the Pegasos and use something like SimpleFTP on the A1200 to connect to the Pegasos. If you dont have an Ethernet connection for the 1200 then I guess serial is the only way. You can use any simple terminal emulator and should be able to do a zmodem send or something like that.

    PLEASE, learn me things

    Is it possible to use the A1200 serial port with miami for an TCP IP connection?

    I dont think you can use miami for that. I've never seen it done. You can get a free terminal emulator from Aminet though. it would be best to run the same one on bothe machines, but you dont have to do that.

    Serge, get one 16bit PCMCIA ethernet card, It will
    transfer faster and more easy ;-)

    Those 16bit PCMCIA are cheap and not too-difficult to find if you are
    a bit smart ;-)

    Serge:

    Have you enabled ramdebug on your Pegasos? (in other words, have you added ramdebug after your boot command)

    Becouse otherwise, Pegasos serial port will be used to output debug information.

    You could use program "Dreamterm" (available from Aminet) to see, if there's anything coming from Pegasos to your Amiga's serial port.

    @serge

    Did you try ParNet? SerNet is a lot slower than ParNet (at least to my experience). You'd need a ParNet cable or build it.

    SerNet is possible tho, but as it was said, you need to activate ramdebug to free the serial port from getting the MOS debugging, you also need a null modem cable.

    You can also transfer files using a null-modem cable & a terminal program (Terminus from Aminet is the best IMHO) on each end.

    For the TCP/IP sharing, it is possible as I already made it between my A1200 (I don't have it anymore) and my Pegasos. Just read the Miami Deluxe manual, it is really well explained in there.

    Hope it helps!

    If transfering files between the A1200 and the Peg is all you want to do with your sernet connection, you should not bother with TCP/IP. Just use a terminal program on each side. That will be the fastest and simplest way to go.

    I have never used the parallel port on the Pegasos, but is there something wrong with the parallel.device you can download from the FTP server (assumed you mean the Pegasos2, the Pegsos1 should never have had any problems)?

    Hello!

    I used to use Twin Express for serial connexions: it's not very fast, but largely for transfering some adf or so files, and very simple: a dos-like commandline with just a little trick to target remote or local side...

    Downloadable on Aminet for sure! ;)

    Ciao and good winds!

    Yes, It fixes some things with printers, but isn't a full featured
    parallel.device, seems taht is designed only for printers...

    Hi timofonic,

    It seems to me, that your solution is the best, but I cant buy this card today and need to transfert my Turboprint 7.60 orinal flopy disks to my pegasos.
    I'm trying to install TP 7.60 to be able to print. Spent 77 euros just for this ! :-(

    But I'll do that you tell later ;-).
    I have integrated an A1200 board on my PEG1 tower. I'm using the input audio on Soundblaster and composit video on an aupauge winTV card to have the A1200 outputs played on the pegasos ;-) it's very nice :-D

    Ok ChatDEau, I think this is the simplest solution.
    Thanks ;-)

    Dont know if PEG 1 have parallel.device problems, but I never could print nothing with It. Same printer on USB does some results.

    So I will forget Parnet for the moment.

    I just finish to try parallel port on the pegasos 1 and it prints correctly . seems to print at same speed like USB.

    I am not too certain wheather it's a good way of measurement to use "printing ability" as a way to determine the quality of parallel.device or the parallel port? Printing problems may be caused by *a lot of things*; the bundled version of TP is one of the more likely reasons (but perhaps not the only one). I have read a review about using the latest release of TP on MorphOS, and that seemed to remove most of the printing problems. AFAIK, the parallel port and the parallel.device is working fine, and Serge, you said it yourself, you have bought the latest TP for 77 Euros just to be able to print. You will probably be able to print just fine through the parallel port with the latest parallel.device when you have installed your software. At least according to the review I read:

    https://morph.zone/modules/sections/index.php?op=viewarticle&artid=32

    I made another experiment detaching the USB cable and connecting the printer
    to the PegasosII via the parallel port (remember to set PAR: in "System
    settings/Printer/Port"): I observed no difference in results and performances.


    So the parallel port and the parallel.device (the latest one, available from the FTP only) seems to be working just fine?

    I dont know for this one because I have a PEGASOS 1 only.
    But on Pegasos 1 parallel port and parallel.device wroks fine for printing.

    The Pegasos2 had an updated parallel.device for a reason. There was no need for an update on the Peg1. Please separate the parallel port and the parallel.device from printing ability! ;-)

    BTW, have any of you guys tried RELAX?
