Bob -
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."
