Hi all,
I'm using MoreNetworkSetup to configure TCP/IP, and encountered a problem
under Mac OS 8.6
I want to configure TCP/IP for PPP, and I use the function
NSHCreateConfiguration.
When setting the NSHTCPv4ConfigurationDigest's fDNSServerList field to
myDNSList, which is a handle that contains 2 IP addresses, the
configuration is created.
When allocating a zero-length handle (NewHandle(sizeof(InetHost) *
dnsCount)), my configuration is not created at all. (It does not exist
when I open the TCP/IP control panel).
Setting fDNSServerList to NULL does not work either.
I want to be able to create a configuration that gets the DNS server list
from the server it connects to.
I set the following fields:
fProtocol = kOTTCPv4NetworkConnection;
fConfigName = "\pSome ISP";
fPortRef = portRec.fRef;
fConfigMethod = kTCPv4ManualConfig;
fIPAddress = 0; /* we want PPP not Manual config */
fSubnetMask = 0xFFFFFF00; /* my earlier boss told me to! */
fRouterList = nil;
fDNSServerList = dnsList; /* see above */
fLocalDomain = "\0";
fAdminDomain = "\0";
fSearchDomains = nil;
fAppleTalkZone = "\0"; /* we don't want to dial via
AppleTalk ;) */
fFraming = 0; /* because portType is kPPP. */
fUnloadAttr = kTCPv4ActiveLoadedOnDemand;
fHintUserVisiblePortName = "\0"; /* Uhm, I never really filled in
this.*/
fHintPortName = "\0"; /* this */
fHintDriverName = "\0"; /* this */
fHintDeviceType = 0; /* or this */
I got portRec from OTFindPort(&portRec, "IPCP");
-Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or why it doesn't work for me
under 8.6 ?
(Does NetworkSetup exist under Mac OS 8.6 ?)
Love,
Jens
