Thanks, that works ! 'ifconfig lan0' now shows a configured interface, and thanks to you I now also know why I got that 'no such interface' error to begin with: the device literally was not there. I didn't even need to reinstall. I can now ping myself in HP-UX, which is a good start.
Although I did have to edit '/etc/netlinkrc' to change the 'route add' command to set the default gateway: the installer had used a hostname for the route command instead of an ip-adres, which the route command appearantly doesn't like. (I got the error 'router: bad value'). Either that, or the word 'router' is a reserved word for the route command, so you cannot use it as a hostname. But now 'netstat -r' shows a valid routing table.
Of course, I still cannot get to other systems with things like 'ping', so I guess I need to do someting additionally on the Windows host system. I'll see if I can find that page that mentioned tun/tap for Windows. I think that page was talking about linking 2 arcade systems together over TCP/IP (like those arcade games where you could link multiple systems together for a multi-player racegame), but I assUme the same applies here.
Minor nitpick: Even though MAME reports the system as running around 99% of the speed of the original system, it still feels really slow. Even commands that I expected to return quickly, like 'netstat' took a really long time before they completed. Oh, well.
--edit--
By the way, this really cracked me up: When you login as root, you get this message (CAPS included):
Quote:
WARNING: YOU ARE SUPERUSER !!
It makes me wonder how many support calls HP got before they added this, from people messing up their system as root and complaining that 'they didn't get a warning'.
