Using a Power Mac G5 as a Gateway

I have Mac OS X Server v10.6.8 Snow Leapord server installed on an XServe and have things set up in the following order:
ISP -> Router -> Switch -> Server and other machines
I also have an old Power Mac G5 and bought a DGE-530T Ethernet Card, so now I have to ethernet ports: one from the Mac and the other from the card. I installed Leapord server software v10.5.8 on it, wanting to use the machine as a ‘firewall’ or gateway and have the network structured in the following sequence:
ISP -> Router -> G5 -> Switch -> Server and other Machines
How can this set up be configured?

.mac was closed November 8, 2010 and users were changed to MobileMe.
MobileMe was closed down July 31, 2012 and users were changed to iCloud.
People with PowerPC Macs cannot access iCloud except through iOS devices like the iPhone 4S

  • How can I get on the internet with my newly purchased used G5 Power Mac if my ethernet port failed?

    We just bought our son a used G5 Power Mac, but when we got it home and tried to hook it up to the internet, no luck. We changed ethernet calbes, tried plugging directly into wall cable (by-passing router), even tried to do manual config, but no luck. I took it to the Genius Bar today and they said the ethernet plug was broken, and they did not have anything for a "vintage" machine like this.
    The Genius Bar tech told me to buy a USB Network Adaptor, however no one (Best Buy, Radio Shack, even searched the internet) seems to have them for Mac. What can I do to get this puppy connected to the internet and how much would it cost? Did we get screwed?

  • Can I use my Power Mac G5 Tiger installer on my old G4?

    I have a Power Mac G5 that I bought in 2006 and an old Power Mac G4 from 2000 that I gave to my roommate. My G5 came with Tiger and iLife 06. I have since upgraded to Leopard and iLife 08, needless to say, I no longer use any of the software that came with my G5. The old G4 is currently running Panther and I wanted to upgrade it to Tiger using that G5 install disc but it wouldn't let me. Is there a way that I can do it?

    No. You need Xcode and Lion and an Intel CPU.

  • An advice for an used Power Mac G5 dual core 2.3

    Hello.
    I used a Power Mac G5 PCI-X (sett. 2003) 2.0 GHz, working with Photoshop. It worked great for yeras, but now, due to its typical logic board lack, it got broken and is unable to boot anymore (three times flashing power light).
    Now, I use software for PowerPC CPUs, so I can't get new computers, because I should replace all the software too!
    I'm going to buy an used Power Mac G5 dual core 2.3 GHz:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermacg5/stats/powermac_g5_dual2.3.html
    This is the configuration:
    Ram: 5.5 GB
    HD: 250 GB
    SVGA: GeForce 6600 - 256 MB.
    About 650 dollars.
    According to you, is this a good product? do you know any issue or manufacturing fault?
    Would you buy it if you were me?
    Thank you!

    I tried heating it (not with the hair dryer), after about 1 hour it booted and worked very well, as in past. But when I powered it off, it started again with the same problem: unable to boot and three times flashing light.
    I need a working system.
    Furthermore, I removed the hard disk (sata 160 GB), and installed it in a Mac Pro: but it recognized only the second partition (data). So I run the Disk Utility and gave immediately an error (wrote in red and big), writing that the hard disk had a serious physical problem, and that if the computer was able to see the disk, I had to make immediately a backup.
    But the three-times flashing light error of the G5 was not given due to the hard disk, because I tried several times to boot it from the OSX DVD, also removing the hard disk, and it always gave the same problem.

  • Can I and how do connect power mac to imac so I can use imac display

    Is there a way I can use my imac and power mac together.
    My purpose is to use the display of the imac when using the power mac.
    If it possible please be so kind to tell me how to.
    Thank you!

    Hi Howard Herrick;
    I doubt it because to the best of my knowledge you are only going to find connectors on the iMac to connect and external monitor to it not to connect another computer to the iMac's screen.

  • Has anyone experience any problems using Leopard on a Power Mac G5?

    Judging from the posts I see on here it seems that most Leopard problems are with iMacs and laptops. I have a Power Mac G5 and I haven't yet had any major problems. Has anyone else using a Power Mac G5 had any issues that I should watch out for?

    I installed Leopard this weekend on a 2x2 G5, and I have problems serious problems. The first is that Leopard is not compatible with Apple's iPhoto version 2.x, but Apple did not publish this information.
    Secondly, and more seriously, now I cannot even power up the computer. Only two hours ago I was working with an Apple tech rep over the phone to debug the iPhoto problem. We deleted some iPhoto files and did some unusual reboots. A Now I can not power up the CPU. The power light is flashing, and I cannot restart the pram.
    I have been on hold with apple support for over an hour. Watch out for their voice activate phone system, it will desktop users to the laptop group even though I said "desktop".

  • Power Mac 10.5.8 Cannot Eject Drives or Send Files to Trash

    Hello,
    I'm posting to the forum for a friend. He is using a Power Mac OSX 10.5.8 with Dual 2 GHz Power PC G5 processor. The past two months he has been having issues deleting files and ejecting drives (flash drives and external hard drives). He will move files to the trash and the animation (poof of dust) and sound will occur but the actual file is not deleted. Also, when he tries to eject any drives, an error message appears stating the drive is in use by other applications. However, no other applications besides finder are open, and when I check the task manager, none are running in the background. This error has caused one of his external hard drives to become corrupted. We recently updated the computer and after the update the permissions were messed up and we couldn't even create a new folder due to insufficient permisions. We're currently running all available first-aid commands from disk utility. If anyone knows what the issue might be, please respond.
    Much appreciated, blessings.
    Isabel

    Hello,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5 - Move Hard Drive to another G5??

    Hi,
    I'm using a Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5 w/ OS 10.5.8 with my Pro Tools 7.4.2 HD3 rig, 2 internal hard drives and tons of external FW hard drives.  It's being hinky with me (every time I reboot/restart the Mac, I have to take the side cover off or it won't boot; wierdest problem ever), and being that I don't want to plunk down thousands of dollars on a new Mac and all new Pro Tools equipment, I'm hunting E-Bay for an exact duplicate of my Mac, of which there are plenty.  Since PowerPC architecture is long dead, they are dirt cheap.  No reason not to have a spare.
    My questions are:
    If I buy another Power Mac G5 Dual 2.5 machine, and swap the hard drive it comes with, and use my already functional hard drive (with the OS, Pro Tools and all related plug-ins installed), and move over my Pro Tools cards and 8 GB of RAM to the new(er) machine, will it boot up and work without me having to reformat/reinstall everything? 
    I also see numerous Power Mac G5 Dual 2.7 machines out there as well.  What are the chances of doing the same as question 1 with this?  I know the processor is different, but would my already formatted and functional hard drive care?  I don't think this will work, but I have to ask.
    If Question 2 is even possible, would upgrading to a Dual 2.7 even be worth it as far as noticeable speed improvement?  Superior Drummer, EZ Drummer and EZ Keys are all real time plug-ins that need the Mac's processor/memory to work. They don't use the Pro Tools cards to work.  So, would getting that extra 200 Mhz of processor power even matter?
    The reason I ask is that reinstalling the OS and Pro Tools is not the issue; 4 hours and it's done.  BUT, reinstalling Superior Drummer, EZ Drummer,and EZ Keys, along with the mountain of expansion packs, will literally take several days of work.  If I could just plop my old hard drives and 8GB of RAM into a newly purchased G5 Dual 2.5 or 2.7, and not go through that, it would be AWESOME.
    Thanks for any feedback on this.

    Just got done making the transfer to the "new" Dual 2.7 G5 I bought off E-Bay.  (yes, on Christmas Eve, because....well.... I have no life).  Worked dead, solid perfect!!!  I'm grinning from ear to ear right now.
    I had to reset some pref's in Pro Tools (not an issue),  Just got done running Pro Tools through its paces, and it works perfectly.  All plug ins run (had to re-authorize Superior Drummer and some related plugins because it detected the change in system serial #, again not an issue).  Other than that, it worked like it always has. I loaded every third party plug-in I could find, and every third party program I could find, and so far everything works without any issues.  Only exception is Team Viewer locks up when I try to close it (have to Force Quit), but I couldn't care less right now. I use that twice a year if that, and just to have someone help me remotely.
    Thanks for the info and help.  This made my Holidays.

  • Adding and configuring a second hard drive in a Power Mac G4

    I am using a Power Mac G4 with the original 20GB hard drive and running OS 9.2.2.
    I would like to upgrade to 10.4 (Tiger) installing it on a 80 GB Seagate Ultra/ATA 100 which I need to install as a second hard drive.
    This is where my problem arises. From what I have read I cannot install OS 10 on a drive configured as SLAVE. On top of this Apple article ID 106728 has a note not to “change your Apple –installed disc drive to ATA ID-1 (slave) when adding other ATA devices.”
    Is this article correct or am I misunderstanding it? I was hoping I could just install the new drive on top of the original and switch the configurations of the drives making my original drive the SLAVE and the new drive MASTER and just install OS X on the new 80GB drive.
    Or can I put the new drive in the position of my original drive configure it as MASTER and put my original 20GB drive above it and configure it as slave?
    I am hoping someone can let me know if these configurations will work.
    Another question is: If I switch the position of my original drive will I lose access to the data on it?
    I would like to keep the OS systems on separate drives because I need to continue to run my old software and Heidelberg scanner (SCSI, running on LinoColor Elite 5.1 for which updated drivers are not available). This will not be possible in classic. I want OS X on the larger drive as I will be loading updated software eventually and it will become my main OS system.

    Hi, Thelisa -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    Is this article correct or am I misunderstanding it?
    Yes, to both - the article is correct, and yes, you seem to be misunderstanding it.
    In the context of the article, "Disc drive" does not mean a hard drive. Earlier in the article it states -
          Solution
          "Disc drive" refers to CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD, DVD-RAM, DVD-R, Combo drives, SuperDrives.
    The reason is that on most (if not all) G4s, an optical drive must be jumpered as Master in order for it to be a bootable drive. So, if an optical drive has been jumpered as Slave, it can not then be used to boot from the OSX Install disk.
    You will need to place the drive to be jumpered as Slave in the top position of the bracket (the drive sled), and the one jumpered as Master in the bottom position of the sled.
    The reason for this is the location of the connectors on the IDE ribbon cable (the data cable) - the one jumpered as Master needs to be attached to the end connector of the cable, and the one jumpered as Slave to the middle connector of the cable.
    Because of the physical limits of the cable itself, the one jumpered as Slave must be on top, else the connectors won't reach to the proper drive.
    Which drive is jumpered as which is your choice, but the one jumpered as Slave must be on top.
    If I switch the position of my original drive will I lose access to the data on it?
    No.
    The designation of Master or Slave is, for the most part, simply to allow the Mac to have a unique physical address for each drive, so it can tell one from the other (this is separate from the pathname addressing that the OS uses). Re-jumpering a drive nor changing its physical location will not affect its contents nor their usability.
    One result that may be important sometime is when the machine in question is set up as the Target machine in a firewire Target Disk Mode arrangement - only the drive jumpered as Master will be visible on the Host machine.

  • IBook and Power Mac G3

    Not sure where to post this topic-
    I am interested in creating and editting video with my iBook (G4, 768MB RAM, 30GB Hard Drive, 12inch). I have been offered a Power Mac G3 running OS 9.2.
    OK- could I use that Power Mac as an alternate Hard Drive (to store projects)?
    A sort of "external" hard drive, that is. The Power Mac G3 has a 13GB Hard Drive, with I understand is WAY below any external hard drive currently on the market.
    It should be noted that I only video blog. That being said, my videos aren't an hour long; rather, no longer than 5-10 minutes at most.
    Thanks

    I've done a little reading, and it has to do with under the hood stuff with the Login ID number.  I found how to change it on the iBook, but I can't figure it out on the iMac.  Ideally, I want them to both be 501.  So how do I sent the iMac in Mac OS 10.5.8?

    Achieving data rates of 54 Mbps requires that all users have an AirPort Extreme Card and connect to an AirPort Extreme Base Station. If any user of Wi-Fi certified 802.11b products joins the network, that user will get up to 11 Mbps and AirPort Extreme network users will get less than 54 Mbps. Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network, and other factors.
