| Macintosh Internet browser? |
Posted by: Retro Rider on 2018-05-07 19:12:50
I got an SE/30 a little bit ago and got an ethernet pocket SCSI connector with it. I'm pretty sure I got it working but I need an internet browser. Does anyone have one? I'm running System 7.0.1

Try MacLynx. Or if you can upgrade to System 7.5, I think you can run Netscape.

Do you have that in another file type? My mac disk writer doesn't accept that size

Which one? Or both?

You can find old browsers here:

You can also access this web site with older Macs. It works with my color classic running 7.6

MacLynx The file on Mac GUI is a Binhex encoded StuffIt archive. The StuffIt archive extracts to 1.8 MB of files in a folder. There's a 720K application for M68K and a 820K PPC application. How are you transferring files to your Mac SE/30?

I'm using HFVExplorer and WinImage. But I have a MBP if there's any mac programs for formatting/writing/reading in Macintosh format

OK, send me an email (see my address in my sig) and I'll send the MacLynx to you in a 1.4MB Disk Copy file.

I didn't realize we could attach files to our posts here! So here is the MacLynx disk image for you! This is derived from the file on Mac GUI Vault.

Sadly 90% of the web is enforced SSL so not sure what your going to browse? Maybe gopher. I have fun with that one from time to time.

The Ruby-language Legacy Proxy is good for circumventing the SSL. I run it on a Raspberry Pi and browse the Web via Netscape 1.12 on my 6360. I can't remember where I found it, unfortunately.

Google still works, and I'm able to access Wikipedia through Google's cached versions of articles. Still, it does not make for a very interactive browsing experience. I'm sure a middleman approach is the way to go for email and web access.

I want to get my se/30 networked and online but not managed it yet. I found with my 6200 PowerPc hardly any brower would work or access macintoshgarden with macOS 7.6, 8 or 8.1 until i put macOS 8.6 on it and upped the ram to 32mb then got Netscape 7 to work (very slowly) thats what I’ve been using to get software onto my se/30. I believe icab 2.99 will work on 7.5 onwards.

I want to get my se/30 networked and online but not managed it yet. What's your set-up? Someone here recommended using an N300 (Netgear?) WiFi extender, and it works like a charm. You plug it into your outlet, configure it with the credentials to your WiFi network and connect it to your Mac via the built-in ethernet port. I never got Open Transport and DHCP to work, but you don't need to. I just grab a static IP address.
I believe icab 2.99 will work on 7.5 onwards. Yup. iCab 2.9.9 works on 7.5.

Yes got a WiFi extender and spliter for my mac corner. Haven’t managed to get my SE/30 on the network yet but have the network card in it, running 7.5.5 and open transport and icab but its not configured, i also haven’t got my rominator or extra ram to work properly yet so without the extra ram there isn’t enough to open the browser lol. I do however have a 6200 PowerPc running 8.6 (Netscape 7) online which I’ve been using to get software from mac garden to my SE/30 but its very slow online so just purchased an imac g3 600 from ebay (not received yet), outside of that i have a few scsi zip drives a few external CD-ROMs, scanner, vacom drawing tablet and a gravis joystick all for the se/30 as i like doing graphic design on It and of course playing old games. Thats my setup, i have s few none working machines as well one LcII and a 1400 PowerBook which i need to look at as it did work and now doesn’t.

I finally got a Raspberry PI for procrastination purposes as I will be starting law school this fall. My question is: what's the best way to configure it as an SSL proxy so I can surf the web from my SE/30? Machead mentioned a Ruby script. I have heard stunnel mentioned repeatedly, but I take it that would be for email access, which I'm not as interested in.
