Can't get SMB working.

[bache]

Hey guys, sorry if this has been answered before.
I've only had FMCB installed for a few days, and the main reason I wanted it was to stream games from my PC to the PS2.
I have my PS2 connected to the PC via an ethernet cable. I have bridged the devices.
My PC's IP configuration is as follows:

IP: 10.0.0.2
Gateway: 255.255.255.0
Mask: 10.0.0.138

I have entered that into the network settings on OPL 0.8 and also enabled file sharing on my PC. I have enable the network on the PS2, but the list of games are empty.
All the games are in the correct format ending with 00 and 01, 02 etc.

Any clues?

i think you need to switch gateway and mask.

also, check that you can ping the ps2 after starting up the network, either in OPL or in uLE (to see if the cable is all right).

Sorry, I posted that wrong. The Gateway is 10.0.0.138 and the Mask is 255.255.255.0
I don't get how to ping the PS2 either. Do I have to assign it a static IP and if so, how can I found out which IP the PS2 uses?

[yoshi314]

if you directly connect pc to ps2, you can basically set things up like this

pc:

ip - whatever you want (e.g. 10.0.0.1)
netmask - 255.255.255.0
gateway - same as pc ip address

ps2: (in OPL network config)

ip - same as ip address, except for the last number (e.g. 10.0.0.2)
netmask - same as pc netmask
gateway - same as pc ip address

and enter pc's ip address and share settings .

after starting up the network in OPL try running

ping 10.0.0.2

on your pc, to see if the ps2 it reachable.

So what you're saying is that I should set my PS2 gateway to 10.0.0.2 and the PS2's IP to 10.0.0.1?

[yoshi314]

that is an example. i think it should work the way it's set up now, assuming it's like this:

ps2:

ip:10.0.0.2
mask:255.255.255.0
gw: 10.0.0.138

pc :

ip:10.0.0.138
mask:255.255.255.0
gw: 10.0.0.138

the current setup should work, too. just double check the "network settings" section in OPL. also, did you rename the iso images correctly with iso2opl, and is the directory structure correct in the shared directory?

Yes, all the directories are correct. I'll try those network settings. I shared the directory, but the tutorial mentioned nothing about putting them in a "Shared" folder. And clue where I can find that folder on Windows 7?

Okay, I don't know how I did it, but the games are now appearing! Thanks a bunch Yoshi!
