Now *this* might soften David a little. But overall, I think, he prefers
Linux to Mac OS :-)

Bobby, Joe, and David,
Thanks for the help. I had already tried disabling all other non-Apple USB
extensions without effect. Following your suggestion, Bobby, I did download
the development version of the USB software (ver 1.4.7f2, modified Nov 29,
2000; but apparently there is a version 1.5?) and replaced the extensions
they suggested. At first test it seems to have solved the problem! Ethernet
is back with the HASP enabled. I need to use it a bit to see that some other
problem hasn't replaced this one, but I am hopeful.
Bobby, if I could trouble you to look at one of your USB extensions
installed from the 9.1 CD, 'USB Device Extension', what version is it and
what is the creation date? The version I replaced was 1.4.6 created Oct 17,
2000.
This seems like a really great group. I have been reading the posts. I hope
I can live up to its standards in my quest to be a better IDL programmer.
I gather from David's comments there are some friendly (I presume)
discussions and preferences over operating systems. And David, I just
purchased the second edition of your book. I also have Ronn Kling's book.
Does he frequent the group?
Thanks again,
Bob Fugate

We have IDL 5.4 running with a USB HASP on a G4 Cube under 9.1, and
it has no problem with Ethernet --- we use the 10/100 port for both
AppleTalk and TCP/IP. (That's two closets, David: Mac and a Cube to
boot.)
Although we have other Mac OS 9.1 boxes, I don't believ any of the
others has a USB HASP (typical situation is a Griffin Technologies ADB
to USB adapter and an old ADB HASP).
HTH,
Joe Gurman
P.S. Hopefully in not a whole lot more than 6 days, we'll see just how
fast IDL can be when optimized for AltiVec support under Mac OS X.... I
did say, "Hopefully."

From the default install of MacOS 9.1, I find I also have USB Device Extension
version 1.4.6 dated 2000 Oct 17, so I don't know why yours wasn't working (may
be some update to EnetShimLib). But I'm glad it is working now. [To get 1.5f3,
go to <http://developer.apple.com/hardware/usb/download.htm>]
