@fergycool@mastodon.social @warandpeas@mastodon.social that's what I forgot to mention: you need to modify the AppleTalk over IP extension with ResEdit, i.e. the STR resource, ID 131 needs to be set to your public IP / hostname. The extension also stores its prefs in System Folder:Preferences:mac68k.info but changing the STR value in there has no effect (looks like a bug). Username and password fields are completely ignored for now. I have a working password check implementation somewhere, but I haven't pushed it yet, pending some cleanup. Also, since it uses DES, it only gives a false sense of security (-;
The other thing is the ValueError raised by Datagram.as_short_header_bytes(). I haven't yet figured out why it happens and for now I'm just changing line 118 in tashrouter/datagram.py. Instead of:
raise ValueError('Invalid hop count ... ')
I have:
print('WARNING: invalid hop count ...')

@btr@social.cpp.org.pl @warandpeas@mastodon.social @smallsco@oldbytes.space thanks a lot for all that. I will try again. I did put the internal Tailscale address (which I can ping from the 7.1 vm) in the STR resource previously but will check again. I’ve already commented out that line in TashRouter when I tried to get my InageWriter online.
