Hello guys
Anyone had any luck in getting the network working for AxpBox ??
The box is running like a charm... just cannot get the inbound connections running !

root@pve2:~# pct config 106 <<<< which is the Debian system I have AxpBox compiled on....

Hello guys
Just wanted to update.....
I got this working using the two NIC's ... and NOT defining the MAC address for the AxpBox!
Getting ssh to work into the AxpBox is a bit tricky, but can be done using the following settings in "$HOME/.ssh/config" ...
Host openvms
hostname 192.168.x.xx
KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
PasswordAuthentication no
user $USER
 
Hi. I see you got this working. I'm a new to AxpBox but a long time ago I was a OpenVMS and Debian Linux admin. I recently built a PC with Mint 22.1 and trying to get AxpBox working. I compiled it from the v1.1.2 source on GitHub and using the instructions from https://www.openvmshobby.com/alpha-vms/openvms-on-alpha-axpbox/, but I can't seem to get the networking going. I'll admit I'm really rusty with this stuff. I also tried the RPM package from https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=Emulators&package=axpbox which would at least run, but didn't seem to like my xterm and gnome-term consoles. I downloaded a version for Windows which actually ran fine on W11 but it as well seemed to not detect my network even with WinPcap v4.1.2 installed. If you could suggest anything I would be very grateful. Thanks.
