Mac OS 8.6 AIM 4.0 issues

[Quote]

Hi guys, I've been trying to get a different version of AIM to install on my Ethernet-connected iMac G3 but I simply can't so I have to resort to using a preinstalled version, 4.0. How do I change the host URL? I know about making host files or whatever, but how the hell do I do that? I don't know a thing, only ever installed on Windows with a clean and easy setup. This is unimaginably difficult. What am I supposed to do? My TCP/IP is completely untouched and AIM has no proper setup screen, just tries to force me to connect to a modem or TCP/IP. Any ideas at all? Visuals would greatly help.

ChunkyPanda03	[Quote] I have been trying with the host file as this login.oscar.aol.com. A 184.15.124.70 slogin.oscar.aol.com. A 184.15.124.70 toc.oscar.aol.com. A 184.15.124.70 but it just tries connecting indefinetly so that's as far as I go but hope this helps ^-^ Talk to me if you can get AIM to work on Mac OS 8.1 or any other classic systems.

ChunkyPanda03	[Quote] I figured out you just have to put in the correct IP address for iwarg.ddns.net you can go to places like IP checker to do so. Talk to me if you can get AIM to work on Mac OS 8.1 or any other classic systems.
