ricefat609 Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 hi,all. I have a problem connecting to the internet. In my university, we can only connect to the internet by a software with 802.1X on windows os. and that software doesn't support other os. A student in computting college has programed it in ubuntu linux. so,now the utuntu linux users in the university can connect to the internet. so .......i'm a mac os user and I've got the source in linux.Is there anyone can help me? PS: the software run in linux also need libcap-dev and libnet-dev ,but i know nothing on what it used for. sorry for my poor english..... linkage4l.tar.gz Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73436-can-linux-source-transform-to-xcode-source/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

socal swimmer Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I do not know about the source. If you have knowledge of programming, you could try compiling and seeing what doesn't work. i.e. if their are commands that do not work, then maybe there are equivalent C/C++/cocoa commands. or, you could try running the binaries via this tecnique: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/05/09/how-t...te-walkthrough/ hope this helps....

The APIs in both OS are different, so not all linux ware can work well in Mac.That all i know. well,thanks,i wil have a try.

ricefat609 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Have you tried asking the college for help on this?ye...but the college told me that there are almost no mac user here, so we are not to ask the ISP to provide the Mac version.it will cost so much money...... and the programer of linux version has graduated out of touch.Fink and X11 combo has always worked for me when I wanted to run linux apps...but the linux ware is out of the list of fink........could you tell me how to use it? and i have got the linux deb package. can fink install the package too?

Embio Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 god that sucks, if my uni told me I couldnt connect because I used a Mac I would kick up a right stink. can you connect via a Windows virtual machine and share the connection back to OS X?

Tell the college to either get off their asses or your money goes somewhere else and all of the worst information the college wants to hide will be sent through the internet.. When you start throwing dollar signs and embarrassment at them, they will usually start acting.

When you start throwing dollar signs and embarrassment at them, they will usually start acting. hehe, I get what you mean. Maybe it will work in your country,but in my country........if you threaten the leader such as the college......usually you will get a punishment from leader. Because in their mind, your action will embarrass the educating process and have a bad effect on the other students. so maybe the best solution is to figure out all the problem on your own....... .......well,i mean we should solve the problem in programming.hehe, thanks for your advice.
