Just a reminder that GlobalTalk nodes are kept online all year round, and some amazing stuff happens on the network outside of March (Simple Spooler, Soft Serve and an ImageWriter CLI (based on GSPort’s ImageWriter emulation) were all developed/released in December 2025-January 2026). Hang...

Apple Internet Router Administrator’s Guide—Addendum (Second Edition) – RFI Hello everyone, it’s time to turn my attention to updating the Addendum to the AIR manual I released last year (along with the scanned and OCRed original manual). This is a GlobalTalk-specific “request for input” on...

Oh, I can now sleep easy at night knowing the answer to the mystery of the big six colour cross :D Gonna print my own, too

If you happened to try this over there last couple of days and got error messages, or nothing, I’ve figured out the misconfiguration (only took 12 hours chasing my own tail because I had the wrong idea where the problem was!) and everything is working for logged in and “public” visitors. Sean

[EDIT: Form on the home page is live!] The basic DokuWiki structure is now in place at globaltalk.wiki – other admins can request a [subdomain].globaltalk.wiki by filling in the form in the QuickStart section of that page (or by messaging me here with the same info) and I will set up a sub-wiki...

Oh, and update my setup disk images and my Apple Internet Router Administrator’s Guide—Addendum. Maybe a couple of other small projects.

Definitely appropriate for March and St Paddy’s Day! 🇮🇪🍀

#GlobalTalk Admins! I’m considering setting up a DokuWiki “Farm” on globaltalk.network to host my GlobalTalk resources, info about my zones, and, if anyone else is interested, info on their zones under a subdomain relevant to their zone (and likely matched, if they’ve taken up the offer of DNS...

No hijacking experienced :) The strength of the FujiNet is its ability to act as a translator for modern protocols like HTTPS and SSH so that, for example, the CATER terminal program can ssh into modern hosts. It has a standalone CP/M capability with storage on an SD card, so no Z80 card...

It has a config disk image that boots the Apple II by default, and also an inbuilt web server, with many configuration options there. In relation to FloppyEMU overlap, there is some, but the effective net booting, discovery of images online (TNFS and FTP), plus other features makes it a unique...

It’s a bit of a mind-bending concept, and you need to make sure you’re looking at the capabilities of each platform’s version. For example, the modem isn’t used by any (?) software. Everything on the Apple II FujiNet is presented to the computer as SmartPort devices, and SmartPort printers and...

Yeah, sorry, stream of consciousness overtook me.

Checked Jason Scott’s Disc Master (sp?)? I’ll head over there now... Sad Mac face - 1.0 only there. Putting search hat on, no doubt the Internet has already been scoured. Can we enlist Sandra Bullock? Man, this is annoying... Probably sitting on a real tape .tar in an unmarked box in a random...

Catching up, looking around...

Please use the **NEW** link to my resources, which will always have the latest GlobalTalk Setup Files packages: WOzFest HQ GlobalTalk Files Also, just put a fullstops/period/dot in the Domain field for your default DNS server – this ensures MacTCP uses that DNS server for all searches. The...
