This page aggregates Internet applications that run only on 'Classic' Mac OS (that is, Mac OS prior to Mac OS X). For the most part, this means that if you have a Macintosh running Mac OS 8.x or earlier, you'll have to stick with the programs listed in this section.

If, however, your Mac runs Mac OS 9 (or, in select cases, Mac OS 8.6), there are many 'Carbon' applications that have been written to work on your computer as well as on a Mac OS X-based computer, so I encourage you to explore the rest of the Orchard for more software that might be of interest to you. The applications on this page are divided into broad categories for easier perusal. User Reviews 'Chat is a really a great way to keep in touch with people. I moved from NJ to NC last year, and every Friday I would set up the Chat program, and my friends would telnet in and we'd all chat for hours. Chat was a BIG help in reducing long distance bills.' Gangi 'Chat is excellent and fairly easy to use, with a nice interface. Does not allow split screen, although some people do prefer the line by line back and forth of chat style.

And it allows up to five people to chat simultaneously. Works by making your Mac a telnet server, with incoming telnet connections automatically directed to it. Looking forward to updated documentation.' —Andrew Starr 'Chat has a great, simple interface. Anyone with a telnet connection can easily log on and master the basic commands in minutes. That said, even as a paid registered user, I cannot recommend this software. Chat 2.1 has not been updated in over two years (July 1994 was the latest), nor will the author(s) provide tech support in any form.

Chat 2.1 exhibits high instability, requiring numerous daily reboots on a modestly busy chat. When a user disconnects without issuing the '/quit' command first, the entire server will crash within minutes. Add that to numerous security holes and very limited admin functions.

It's really a shame.the user interface is so elegantly intuitive.' —Jeff Schwartz 'I've been running Chat for about 6 months now, and it is awesome. It is a simplified personal IRC, the is especially good for me when I am trying to provide service for distant clients. Super simple, but extremely effective. I just wish there was a simple way to track my IP address whenever I connect via PPP so others could always get ahold of me (finger doesn't work with my ISP)' —Mark Guertin 'WOW, I set up my Chat 2.1 to a shell, and it is great.

Users can telnet to it at any time, and chat away. I use mine as a chatroom for my IRC channel, and I also give IRC tutorials, and Bot tutorials. Chat 2.1 is a GREAT program to meet people, and just have fun! PLus the ADMIN commands really help for kicking those annoying users.' Current Version: 1.1 McPoker is the only available IRC Poker client for the Macintosh-and it's pretty good, at that. From the McPoker home page: 'This is a client program (visual front end) that communicates over the Internet using IRC protocols to a poker server so that you can play poker with other real people - and some not-so-real players.

It was mostly modeled after Greg Reynolds' - an excellent IRC poker client for Windows, which most IRC poker players seem to be using. You will need to be using Open Transport networking on your Macintosh for McPoker to work.' McPoker is freeware. Version 1.1 fixes a problem with new IRC Poker server software and introduces a text file to define new Bot names. Netscape CoolTalk Current Version: 1.5 CoolTalk is an old (1996) Internet telephone and workgroup collaboration tool used in combination with Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later that provides 'high-quality' audio conferencing, a full-featured whiteboard, and text-based communications.

CoolTalk for Macintosh was developed by Apple Computer, and requires that you have a PowerMac running System 7.5 Update 2.0, OpenTransport 1.1.1 beta and have QuickTime 2.5 or later installed. These components are available from. User Reviews 'CoolTalk 1.5 for the Mac lacks many features of its Windows-based counterpart. In many respects, it's more a beta than a true release.

Most notably, it lacks the Watchdog daemon that allows you to receive calls, at anytime, without having CoolTalk running in the background. This is a major oversight that prevents CoolTalk 1.5 from being truly useful. It also lacks the answering machine feature that allows you to autoreply to chat requests that you cannot answer. Don't bother to install it. Wait for version 2.0 and hope it's a complete product.' —Troy Janisch 'CoolTalk is a great way to keep in touch with some one. It works like a regular phone.most of the time.

I live in Virginia, and I call my brother in South Carolina on a regular basis. He has a Windows 95 version (poor fellow) and I use a Power Mac version. Apple recommends you use MacPPP 2.5.1, not OT/PPP. I use OT/PPP 1.0 and I have not had trouble with it at all. In the beginning, you and your caller will have to play around with the controls and configure something that will work the best for you. My brother and I call each other directly.

We never log onto the 411 server. It just slows things down. To call direct, you just email your partner the IP number. They use it like a phone number. The sound quality is fairly good. If the Internet has high traffic, I find that the sound quality fluctuates.' Swirl Current Version: 1.0a0 Swirl is a handsome IRC program from Swedish programmer Pelle Johansson, who notes what sets this client apart from the rest: 'Its appearance, for one thing, stands out.

It's quite different. In fact, most other clients seem to be based upon the old public domain Ircle source. Other features are a new, fast dcc protocol, powerful alias function, and tab completion (for nicks and preset words).' While this initial alpha release is not too stable, keep an eye on this one. The author seems serious about its continued development, although no home site exists for it at the present time. User Reviews 'Talk is a nice implementation of the talk program that I've seen on Unix and VMS mini/mainframes.

I don't use it the way the manual says I should. I find running talkd at startup hangs my system, so I just open talk itself when I expect to talk with someone. Still seems a little buggy if I close and reopen without rebooting.'

—Andrew Starr 'Unfortunately, Talk is the only talk client for the Mac (at least that I know of) available. That's too bad. I find myself using Telnet instead. While Peter Lewis has ported various Unix functions to the Mac with Mac ease of use, Talk is too dumbed down. Talk is nowhere near the quality of Wintel counterparts like WinTalk. Of course, Peter lacks Bill's budget. Nonetheless, Talk has varying success depending on your server and its flavor of Unix.

For example, on my network, it is only useful if the person you are trying to contact has a static IP. In this case, you can run a talk session by using 'user@0.0.0.0.' Since I most often need to run a session with someone on the other side of a tty, it fails for me in this respect. Furthermore, while I can usually get talk to find someone with a dynamic IP via WinTalk or (Unix) talk by using 'user@servername.domain.com.' , Talk will only work with an IP address. Please, if there's a software company out there, please spare me from the snickering of the Unix Jihad and the Windows Militia and build a competitive talk client.'

—Jay Valenta 'Very stripped down and rudimentary compared to Windows programs such as Wintalk. But it does work and is fairly stable, though I have had complaints from people I'm talking to.

Unfortunately seems to be the only option for the Mac.' FreePPP Current Version: 2.6.2 (For older Macs. Note that the official FreePPP web site was eliminated on August 2, 2004, but the software remains available on the InfoMac archives.) FreePPP has a beautiful interface and lots of nifty features. More importantly, it is compatible with both Open Transport and virtual memory. FreePPP 2.6 is the favorite alternative to Apple's Open Transport PPP (below) and Remote Access (OS 9). Some people find better luck with one than the other. FreePPP offers far more configurability options than OT/PPP, and is easier to set up for use in multiple locations.

Version 2.6.2 cleans up the code, fixes lots of bugs, and improves an already great product. User Reviews 'This is an outstanding release of FreePPP; if you add the very small control panel you can place a connect menu in the Finder's menu. The interface is smart and clean, and the interaction with Open Transport is seamless and fast. Plus, it's all free.' Dixit 'I use FreePPP (2.5v2) on 3 different Macs, and couldn't be happier. On my 6100 with Open Transport, it works great, on my PowerWave with Open Transport it works great, and on my 520c with Classic Networking, it works great, too. I love the Finder-Menu controls, and I don't think I could live without this software.

And it's FREE!' —Keegan Garrick. MacPPP Current Version: 2.0.1 NOTE: for older Macs only. This is the 'official' release of MacPPP for MacTCP (not Open Transport!) from the Merit Network, for use with MacTCP (on older Macs). If you need a PPP connection for your older Mac, this the most tried and true, but it doesn't work with Open Transport, as FreePPP does. Version 2.0.2 - no longer available - fixed a glitch wherein the Control Panel allowed 42 character usernames, but PAP could only use 31 characters. Note: Apple's MacPPP 2.5.x is not directly related to MacPPP 2.0.1.

MacPPP as it exists here is the Merit Network variety, and 2.0.1 is the current version. MacPPP 2.5.x (included as part of Apple's Internet Connection Kit) is based upon Steve Dagley's FreePPP source, and follows much of the same course of code as FreePPP (up to a certain point), but is lacking in some important bug fixes and enhancements included in the current versions of FreePPP. For these reasons, I do not list Apple's MacPPP in the Orchard's pages. Current Version: 1.1.2 (For pre Mac OS 8.0 users only.

Superseded by in Mac OS 9.1) NOTE: for older Macs only. Open Transport is Apple's new networking technology for the MacOS. It contains native code for PowerMacs and is easier to configure than MacTCP. It's more memory-hungry, however. For PCI-based PowerMacs, Open Transport is the only officially Apple-endorsed way to make a TCP/IP-based Internet connection. On other machines, however, Open Transport is merely an optional replacement for MacTCP. Version 1.1.2 fixes a few bugs present in 1.1.1 (but not the infamous server performance issue).

Open Transport 1.1 (available only as part of System 7.5.3 or higher) or 1.1.1 is a prerequisite. If you're using an older Mac (68020 or older), stick with MacTCP.

You'll use less memory and have fewer headaches. If you're using a fast 6803- or 68040-based machine, you'll see a noticeable speed increase, and it will be worth upgrading if you have the extra 600K or so of RAM to spare. User Reviews 'I have been using Open Transport 1.1.2 for 2 weeks on a Performa 6116CD, 60 MHz 601 processor. My Mac is connected to an ethernet network (a full T1 internet connection) and I have noticed at least a 20% increase in speed when accessing Internet. Pages download faster, and I have seen no freezing (I use Netscape version 2). I have setup several Macs for Internet connections recently using MacOS 7.5.5, OT and OT/PPP (for friends) and have seen a corresponding increase in speed for dial-up connections. OT and OT/PPP are also much easier and quicker to configure for successful dial-up access.'

User Reviews 'I know there has been a lot of moaning-but the operation of the OT/PPP is absolutely smooth on my PowerMac. The images do indeed come through quicker and Netscape responds like it never did before. It was one hell of a long download, but it was well worth it.' —Jean de la Bruyere 'I too have had very good results with OT PPP. I connect more reliably and have fewer dropped connections. Compared with FreePPP, OT PPP is much more aware of the actual state of the connection-it knows when the connection has dropped.

OT PPP's ability to create a logon script by watching you log on manually is very cool.' —David Orgel 'Before installing Open Transport 1.1.1 and OT PPP on my PowerMac 7500/100, I was disappointed with PPP performance, especially Netscape browsing, which was significantly slower than on my Pentium/100 NT 3.51 machine at work. I am happy to say that PPP performance is much improved, even surpassing my Pentium workstation!' Benninghoff 'This is the most significant improvement my Performa 68040 machine has ever had related to connectivity. I get solid, lasting, good quality connections with this new release of OT technology. My browser has accelerated like I have never seen it before.

My disconnections using video and other Internet-connection-hungry applications have almost disappeared. Also, the fact that I can see how the connection is being made along with information about its rate is a big plus. I recommend it over the others PPPs. Thumbs up to Apple.' —Claudio Gorria 'Installs easily.

Took almost no setup time. Just needed to enter phone number, username, password, and choose my modem from the new Modem control panel. First connection went through no problem! I am still using FreePPP 2.5, however, until PPPop works with OT/PPP.' —Andrew Starr. Current Version: 2.6 (Mac OS 9; Mac OS 8.6 for Power Macintosh G4, iBook, and iMac (slot-loading) computers.) NOTE: for older Macs only. Open Transport 2.6 addresses DHCP issues in Mac OS 9.0 and prevents Macintosh computers from being used in certain types of Denial of Service (DoS) issues.

Open Transport is the networking software in the Mac OS. This software installer updates Open Transport to version 2.6. This updater is for use only on computers using Mac OS 9.0, and PowerMacintosh G4, iBook, and iMac (Slot-loading) computers running Mac OS 8.6. Current Version: 1.4.5 (alpha) NOTE: for older Macs only. A nice PPP client for use with MacTCP (not Open Transport) that many people prefer to the alternatives. From the documentation: Automatic redial - Simple PPP will automatically redial when an Internet service provider doesn't answer or is busy.

It will keep redialing until it gets through, or the application that started it gives up. Automatic reconnect - Simple PPP will automatically redial when an open connection is dropped while it was being actively used. Usually, file transfers can be recovered after the redial. No other PPP for the Macintosh offers this feature. Faster transmission.

A new buffering strategy improves performance. Shorter connect times. Now that redialing works, there's less need to stay connected when you're not doing anything. If you pay for connect time, this can reduce your costs.

Useful diagnostics. A new diagnostic system helps you figure out what happens when there's a problem. No more unwanted dialing.

The old MacPPP/FreePPP problem of randomly dialing in the background when there was no traffic to send has been fixed. User Reviews 'This is a great little application. I am using it on a PowerMac 6100/60 connected to a Boca 'Fast Mac' V.34 modem (28.8 kbps). Setting it up is simplicity itself. It is just a matter of installing the SimplePPP Extension in your extensions folder and finding a folder in which to place the SimplePPP application (I placed mine in my Control Strip Menu Folder, but it would work just as well as an alias in the Apple Menu Items folder). Follow all of the instructions about removing any MacPPP/FreePPP files from your System folder (except the PPP prefs as noted below), unless of course you don't want to connect to your server.

After that, it is just a matter of point and click.' —Jerry Garrison 'Just got a copy of this PPP connectivity kit. I must say that it seems to be the most stable PPP I have seen.

I am currently using a Mac SE/30 with MacTCP 2.0.6. I have had some intermittent hangs with FreePPP and MacPPP (but must confess that I am too lazy to track down the cause). Simple PPP seems to be a very elegant and stable product. My only concern is that the configuration window is a bit big for my small screen.

All the buttons are accessible, but I hope that future versions will keep us small screen dudes in mind.' Poindexter 'I have tried all the versions of FreePPP on my Performa 6116CD. I'm glad I found John Nagle's SimplePPP on The Mac Orchard.

This truly 'simple to use' piece of software is just what I needed. It was very easy to set up (when I realized it did not work with Open Transport). I like the redial features and the simple, straightforward error messages. Finally, I can understand what happens if I don't connect properly! Everything is MUCH speedier now and seems to be more stable. It even works in the background, allowing you to get more work done.

Thanks, John for providing us with something that WORKS!' —Dean Fuller. User Reviews 'A good, simple, no frills PPP client that worked perfectly on my PowerMac 7100.' Reite 'I installed SonicPPP client 1.2.1 on my SE/30 and am very happy with it. I am surprised that it seems so ignored among Mac PPP clients. It works well, and opens both the Apple modem tool and the new Hayes modem tool. This is a good PPP client program, able to run on machines that balk at FreePPP and MacPPP.'

—Gene Poole 'After numerous nightmares with various versions of FreePPP, SonicPPP worked like a dream. It's a great program for older Macs.' —Mitch Monger. TCPSerial Current Version: 1.0.1 From the Info-Mac abstract file: TCPSerial is an Extension which creates a fake serial driver and attached modem which actually communicate via a TCP/IP connection rather than a phone line. The main reason for doing this is to allow programs that know how to communicate via a modem, but not via the Internet, to use the Internet. One example of such a program is Apple Remote Access (ARA). Using TCPSerial, it is possible to connect an ARA client to an ARA server via the Internet.

Final Version: 1.7 (February 19, 2003) Working in conjunction with the Yi dynamic DNS system at, yiMac is very similar to the Mac DynDNS Client, above. YiMac allows your computer to have a consistent domain name every time you connect to your ISP. Version 1.7 adds/changes the following:. URLs updated for whyI.org. Expiration date set to January 2004 Although the software is no longer under development, the author has been kind enough to keep the final version - and the site - available for those who may find the software useful. Current Version: 0.9.8b Baton Mail allows you to add mail authentication to older email client software. With 'Spam' on the rise, most ISPs have added the need to authenticate before being able to send email through their servers.

Older email clients (like Claris Emailer, Eudora Lite, or just about any mail client older than the last year or two), lack this capability; Baton Mail provides it by acting as a private mail relay station. The software runs as a small application that you run in the background. You configure your email client to send outbound email to Baton Mail, which in turn performs any necessary authentication with your ISPs mail server, and then relays the outbound mail. Baton Mail also allows you to assign a specific port to connect to your provider's SMTP server, should your provider use such a scheme to hinder abuse. Baton Mail is released as freeware. Version 0.9.8b adds/changes the following:. Fixed (?) a serious bug with sending attachments that caused the computer to freeze.

Removed the need to bring Baton Mail to the front for workable speed. Added support for altering the listening port (resource STR 1128). Added support for choosing first tried auth type (resource STR 1129).

Current Version: 5.0.6 This free combined email (POP3/SMTP/IMAP) / Usenet news client is positioned as an add-on for Microsoft's Internet Explorer web browser. Version 5.0.6 addresses the following:. Includes support for MSN Web mail accounts;. Resolves all security vulnerabilities in previous versions of Outlook Express 5.

This includes vulnerabilities that might have caused Outlook Express to stop responding or caused a memory problem that compromised the security of the computer as well as a security vulnerability that can enable an attacker who had a valid security certificate to issue an invalid subordinate certificate that would appear to be valid. For more information, see Microsoft Security Bulletins. Outlook Express is a competitive piece of software, with all kinds of nifty features. But it's also a mess visually - the fact that it still wields a space-wasting, overly complex three-paned interface makes me loath to recommend it all too highly. It also has more menu selections than your average CAD program, and it's extraordinarily slow to import email from other applications; my Eudora Pro mailbox, with over 25,000 saved messages, was going to take over 4 hours (!) to import. For newsreading, keep in mind that the Mac has some of the best newsreaders on any platform; use them for reading Usenet news instead. But for all its faults, this product just keeps getting better.

In the meantime, I'll stick to Eudora and MT/YA-NewsWatcher. Offline Current Version: n/a From the Info-Mac abstract file: Offline is a reading program for downloaded Usenet News, email and other text. Internet subscribers who connect over dial-up lines (particularly with ISPs who charge according to connect time) often find it more useful to download news with a program such as Newswatcher, and then read it offline after they have completed their connection session. This small-footprint program provides a comfortable interface for indexing and browsing through these downloaded files. Current Version: 1.1 From the DropFTP home page: DropFTP is a small and easy-to-use AppleScript droplet that uses Interarchy client to transfer files in the right locations on a remote FTP server. You only have to specify the root folder on your Mac and the root directory on the server.

Then you just drag-and-drop files on DropFTP icon and the script transfers the files to the right sub-directories. Version 1.1 addresses the following:. The cumbersome 'Can't make into an item' bug should be fixed - finally.

Configuration sets can be imported and exported. Configuration sets can be duplicated and enabled/disabled more easily.

EasyTransfer Current Version: 3.4.3 Please note: This is a Mac-specific file transfer program, and not a true FTP client. From the Info-Mac abstract: EasyTransfer is a file transfer utility that not only allows you to transfer files on Macintosh computers over the Internet, but now it also enables you to control the remote Mac to some extent. It completely eliminates the need to preprocess (BinHex) files before they can be sent. It features an easy-to-use interface.

Throughput is very high, up to 450 kBytes/sec. It supports run-time file compression. EasyTransfer can now control your remote Mac: you can move/copy files, launch applications, move windows etc.

The interface is now very Finder like (when 'View by Name' is selected), including collapsible file lists. It also is fully Drag Manager compatible. Current Version: 1.1r3 Based upon Nifty Telnet, NiftyTelnet SSH (not written by the author of NiftyTelnet), adds a subset of the SSH 1.5 protocol, and is the only known free SCP (Secure CoPy) client for the Mac as well, which it is why I include a listing on the FTP page of the Orchard. At the moment, only password authentication is supported, and the client is also lacking port forwarding, compression and scp to mention a few things. But it's free, stable, and widely used. And now that the RSA public-key encryption algorithm is in the public domain, it's a legal download within the United States.

Freeware Current Version: 3.2 (February 11, 1999) / 4.4 (February 11, 1999) / 5.0 (May 13, 1999), and are three QuickTime extensions that allow you to play.AVI (Windows video) format movies using QuickTime on Mac OS 9 and earlier. Note: These will only work with PowerMacs running QuickTime 3.0 or later. Also, please note that these versions complement each other; that is, if you are running Indeo Video 5, you should also include the Indeo Video 3 and 4 extensions to round out your support for all the available.AVI subformats. Freeware Current Version: 1.5 (February 16, 1995) MPack is especially useful if you have a large email attachment that your email client can't handle. MPpack is a utility for encoding and decoding binary files in MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) format mail messages. For compatibility with older forms of transferring binary files, the munpack program can also decode messages in split-uuencoded format.

The Mac port can also decode messages in split-binhex format. In short, mpack is the MIME equivalent of uudecode/binhex. Freeware Current Version: 1.5.1 (November 5, 1997) / 2.2.5 (June 5, 2001) / 2.2.6 (April 8, 2003) Mac OS Runtime for Java is Apple's OS-level method for running Java applets on Mac OS 8 & 9 (this functionality is built into Mac OS X and kept current through OS X's software update). While some web browsers, including Netscape Navigator/Communicator come with their own Java implementations built-in, many other applications (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer) require this helper application to perform their Java-based tasks. Version 2.2.6 is an upgrade to MRJ 2.2.5 which provides fixes that allow Oracle 11i client applications to communicate with Oracle's application servers over HTTPS.

It is recommended that you only update to MRJ 2.2.6 if you need to use Oracle 11i client applications over HTTPS and that your Oracle software is properly configured to support HTTPS communication with Mac OS 9 clients. Otherwise, you should use MRJ 2.2.5.

Version 1.5.1 runs on older (68030) Macs and on system software as early as System 7.5.5. Freeware Current Version: 1.0.6 (February 22, 2001) MacZIP is a complete port of the Info Zip ZIPping and UNZIPping utilities for the Macintosh that supports encrypted archives. It has a very simple interface and supports Apple Events, and full is available.

The 'Crypt' version includes encryption code that was originally written in Europe and can be freely distributed from any country except the U.S. If this code is imported into the U.S., it may not be re-exported from the U.S.

To another country. User Reviews 'MUDDweller is fairly stable and works under OT most of the time (it takes a minute after a connection is closed before you can open another one). Nice macro capabilities that can be executed at login and logout, as well as assigned to any key. Doesn't have triggers or syntax coloring like TKView, but it also doesn't crash as much as TKView.' —Erich Bratton 'MUDDweller is the best client I've seen for M.'

s that focus on Role-Playing, rather than hard-coded combat and what not. A clean interface, scrollback and type-back limited only by memory, a resizeable typing buffer. Features go on and on. It even supports uploading of text files and operates as a slick telnet client; I use it to connect to my ISP's news server occasionally.' —Jeff Eaton 'With all the different and updated MU. programs available to the Mac, I still find myself going back to MUDDweller eventually! It loads quick, it's easy to customize, and has proven itself to run in all MacOS's from 6.0 to 9.1!

Who really needs the colored text at the expense of stability? I've had many programs crash on me, but MUDDweller, despite the latest version turning 10 years old next year, still remains a bastion of stability! This program is a must-have if you MU. a lot like I do; don't let the age of the program fool ya!' —Emi Melissa Briet. Current Version: 1.0b7 (June 16, 2000) Big Brother is a highly-redundant web-based monitoring and notification program. Although originally designed to operate only on UNIX machines (and the server still only does), reporting clients are available for Windows NT, Novell, and now the Mac OS.

You'll find more information about the Big Brother system at. Version 1.0b7, which is an AppleScript that requires the freeware, adds/changes the following:.

1.0b7 Expanded on the refinements in b6 so that the 'status header' given out on pages and on the main line of status pages is the same (the b6 ones). These should be more descriptive of the problems in general. Includes AkuaSweets 1.4.1, which fixes a crashing bug in its text-parsing routines. Fixes a bug where it would quit if more than one volume went offline.

Tried to make code more legible:). Added option to not check read-only disks.

See the for more information. User Reviews 'Hey, DNS Lookup is great! Like most fledgling Mac Webmasters, I don't have a UNIX shell account, so I have no way to access nslookup. Besides, this appears to be much more intuitive and flexible. The fact that one can request a zone transfer is extremely helpful for me, since I have just begun providing primary DNS for all our domains and need a way to test my configs. Paul Herman has done an excellent job.'

—Gil Poulsen 'Like DNS lookup, another feature-laden gem, but OTTool gives you much more information about the network connection. In an instant, all the information that I'd ever want to know about my Mac's network connection. I can even do a reverse lookup to find its name (or a name of another host, given its IP address). If I were a nit-picker, I would have liked to have seen my host's DNS name displayed automagically along with its IP address. The Traceroute is neat. Much faster than anything I remember from a UNIX box many years ago. Too bad that Apple is walking away from further OpenTransport development!

What will become of OTTool in post-Blue-box days? Until then, ENJOY this wonderful gift. Thank you, Neon! 'One inconvenience that I'd like to see rectified is that there seems no way to interrupt a long pause for a record (e.g., MX) lookup. One must wait patiently until the lookup is completed or times out. At first, on one of these lengthy lookups, I thought that my Mac had frozen.

Also, I'd love to be able to dismiss the clever Neon flash-banner with ONE simple mouse-click. Other than that, this is still a fantastic tool, definitely worth many times the asking price, and my comments are meant constructively to help improve an already great gift.' —Steve Goldstein International Networking Coordinator National Science Foundation. Current Version: 1.0.1 From the author of ShadowBot, ICMP Logger records any incoming ICMP packets, detailing the IP the ICMP came from, its size, and the time it arrived and saves it into a log file. It can also play a sound when it detects a ping.

If you're a network server administrator, IRCop, or anyone else who thinks they might be pingflooded, ICMP Logger will give you all the information you need to track down those behind denial of service attacks. The program requires OpenTransport and a live Internet connection. User Reviews 'Works great for what it does, with one annoying quirk: it sometimes won't quit when it's told to, espectially on shutdown of the computer. MacsBug and escapeshell is an essential addon:-)' —Stefan Jeglinski 'Small footprint, quiet co-existence with EIMS, QuickDNS; only concern at this point which led me to look for later version, was freezing computer on quitting this utility. Under 8.6 a few programs have had quitting problems which may or may not be associated with OneClick.'

Freeware Current Version: 3.0.4 (August, 1997) Dartware (some of the former programmers from Dartmouth College) produces a heck of a lot of great Mac Internet software, and has some interesting commercial offerings. MacPing is a free (formerly a $99-$299 commercial product) Ping implementation that supports AppleTalk as well as IP.

MacPing requires a Macintosh computer with a network connection running System 7 or later. For monitoring IP devices, SNMP Watcher requires MacTCP (version 2.0.6 or newer) or Open Transport (version 1.1 or newer). MacTraceroute Current Version: 1.1 MacTraceroute is a 'traceroute' network traffic analysis program for older Macs. From the Info-Mac abstract file: MacTraceroute is a program that attempts to trace the route an IP packet would follow to some internet host.

It is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate, but more often than not is close enough to reality to assist in debugging network problems. Requires the Traceroute Ethernet LAP or a Traceroute capable LAP. Please note that MacTraceroute does not work with any PPP implementation except MacSLIP 3.0. Current Version: 2.5.1 NetBots is a program that lets you initiate agents that go out and retrieve information for you at specified intervals. Pinging, fingering and port monitoring can all be automated. According to the author: 'Version 2.5 introduces the FTPBot, which lets users monitor FTP directories for updates.

The FTPBot is a great way to check for new files in FTP dropboxes. The popular PingBot module has been revamped to be more compatible and flexible. Numerous new preferences like 'mute mode' and 'verbose logging' allow users to configure how NetBots reports errors. A host of additional features and bug fixes make NetBots 2.5 a more stable and useful application.' User Reviews 'Anyone who is a time hobbyist or just wants to have the most accurate time possible will enjoy this Control Panel. It automatically downloads the atomic time from various time servers (you specify which one of many) around the country that are fed the time directly from the atomic clock.

(Hint: if you are ever having trouble with your PPP/TCP connection, disable Network Time temporarily; it is not the cause of the problem, nor will disabling it solve the problem, but it's a pain to have it keep on trying to dial PPP/TCP when you are trying to fix the problem).' —Andrew Starr 'If, like me, you've been keeping a World Band radio receiver handy to tune in WWV daily to reset your Mac's real-time clock, Network Time 2.0.1 is a must-have piece of software.

Network Time checks you in over the Internet-automatically and all in the background-to any one of 93 world-wide Stratum 2 NTP time servers and synchronizes your Mac's clock to an international standard. Perhaps best of all, there's no expensive long distance phone call as with other time servers. 'Network Time's control panel is simple and straight-forward to set up and configure.

A good thing, because the documentation (written in MacWrite Pro) doesn't translate well into other word processors. Not to worry, most of the documentation's essential information is available in Balloon Help anyway. 'As a matter of fact, the toughest part of setting up Network Time is deciding which NTP server you should connect to. To locate the servers, check into the Synchronization Page on the WWW at. There you'll find a list of 59 primary (Stratum 1) servers; most of these are of limited access, reserved for synchronizing the time on secondary (Stratum 2) servers and, one presumes, other essential systems. Choose a Stratum 2 server nearest you for reliable access, enter its address in the appropriate Network Time dialog box and click the 'Verify' button. The address will be verified by the DNS Resolver (or not, if you've entered the address incorrectly); then you can click 'Set Time' and your Mac will be synchronized-correctly and within 1 second-to the international standard.

That's about all there is to it and from then on, your Mac's clock will be set automatically as you're merrily surfing away to other far-flung locales.' Thompson, Ph.D. PingReporter Current Version: 1.3.1 From the Info-Mac abstract file: This little app will extract and organize data contained within an ICMP Log file created by ICMP Logger (v1.0, above). If you are familiar with ICMP Logger, then you are familiar with its logfiles and how mind numbing it can be to extract various data items such as IP numbers, start & stop times, or total data received - information that the proper authorities can use for tracking down malicious pingers. After extraction, it then organizes for you in a nice, neat manner. Current Version: 2.0.2 From the Info-Mac abstract file: Vremya is a simple freeware Network Time Protocol client for Macintosh. It is small application that allows various degrees of automation from none to waiting for MacTCP to be opened, setting the clock and then quitting.

Because it is an application, it uses no system memory and causes no INIT conflicts. Version 2.0.2 adds source code to the download and places the application in the public domain; version 2.0.1 fixed a minor balloon help problem. CommFigure Current Version: 1.2b2 CommFigure has a purpose similar to InternetConfig-that is, to help you configure multiple Internet applications from a central source-but it uses a different method, and seems to be aimed at a different audience. Rather than creating a central set of preferences that all applications can use (like InternetConfig), it uses a series of modules that physically change the preference files of specific applications. This can be very useful for ISPs and others who need to create sets of preference files for others to use. In its current form, however, it doesn't support InternetConfig. The program comes with nine modules (CU-SeeMe, Eudora, Fetch v1.2, Homer, Ircle, MacPPP, MacWeb, Netscape + 2.x, Netscape 1.x) and it comes with a document that explains how to create new modules using ResEdit.

Current Version: 2.0.2 NOTE: The functionality of this program has been directly incorporated into OS 9.0 and later via the 'Internet' control panel. You will not require it for OS 9 or later.

From the Info-Mac abstract file: Internet Config is a system for storing Internet related preferences in a shared database that can be accessed by Internet Config aware applications, such as NewsWatcher and Anarchie 1.6. InternetConfig makes your life easier by reducing the number of times which you need to enter your Internet preferences into the various 'preferences' windows of all your Internet applications. Note: This package also includes the latest version of the ICeTEe system extension that allows command-clicking of URLs in many programs, including Eudora. Version 2.0.2 addresses the following issues, among other things:.

Bug fixes to support Internet control panel. Changes in the IC file mapping database to favour MoviePlayer and PictureViewer. A number of fixes in the SpaceAliens sample code.

Sorted out niggly details in the documentation. User Reviews 'Butchering some terminology from Douglas Adams' 'Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy', Internet Config is the most fabulously useful thing an Internet surfer can carry.

It allows you to set your internet preferences once and forget them (well, keep them written down somewhere but don't WORRY about them).' —Scott Thompson 'The number of programs that can use Internet Config is outstanding! It helps a lot when you don't have to set up every single application with your name, email address, PO server, favorite web page, etc. Plus, ICeTEe kicks a.!! Being able to command-click on any URL from any application is very useful.'
