Networking issue

[Joe]

It did for me but it won't help if it is a hardware issue. If you are using any 32-bit software on Mojave it won't work on Catalina so beware of that before upgrading it.

Also you should always use hosts files on a Mac no matter what OS you are running.

I don't think there is any "old" software on that particular box. Right now it's really only being used for some online accounting, but they are thinking of hiring another designer so it needs to be incorporated into the local network and will likely get loaded with some version of Adobe CC for Illy and PShop. As far as the host file it's editable in Terminal?

Well you could but it is much easier to copy it to desktop and edit it with Text Edit. It is just a text file. Add all network computers you need to network to it. When done move it back to the /etc folder and let it overwrite the old one.

That worked Joe. You are a genius as always. I owe you a beer, which is the local currency in the small hamlet I live in.

Joe just keeps hitting them out of the park, that's for sure. But I don't think beer is his drug of choice or if he even has one. Maybe chocolate covered pretzels?

This might work?

I would have suggested all the same things Joe did, but I haven't logged on in a few days, so I'm glad it all worked out for you. You're Welcome!

If I'm not mistaken, I believe it would have to be gluten free.

Ah right you are, I can take the stuffed pie since it's already bought and all though.
Taking a hit for the team.
