**StealthBravo** · 08-31-2009, 05:42 PM

You were using the up-to-date program to get snow leopard $9.95?

**rhekt** · 08-31-2009, 05:49 PM

nope...older generation macbook pro...they overnighted it to me...$29

**StealthBravo** · 08-31-2009, 05:54 PM

I dont think so. I didnt want to wait for that DVD to come in so I went to the Apple Store to buy a copy. I got the up-to-date one in the mail and noticed the difference

**rhekt** · 08-31-2009, 06:12 PM

yeah i wouldnt think there would be a difference....just cheaper as a benefit to those individuals that had just purchased a most current generation mac...

I guess the Upgrade DVD cant be used to do a fresh install

**b3nny** · 09-01-2009, 10:57 AM

i believe the upgrade disc only works with previous installations of leopard. The install disc would be needed to go from Tiger to Snow Leopoard.

my msn is actin all weird since it started snowin

help pls!!

The Upgrade CD updates Leopard and also installs a fresh copy on a clean drive. Did it last night.

The following is the fix to get SonicWall's Netextender running under Snow Leopard:

1) Delete the old NetExtender application - a reinstall is required due to some profile issues after upgrading to Snow Leopard.

2) Download and install the latest version of Netextender(3.5.634) from the SonicWall demo site.

3) It will automatically start and throw up an error (looks like a log file). Dismiss this and quit NetExtender.

4) Open a terminal window and issue the following commands to fix the permissions on the /usr/sbin/pppd directory as Super User.
sudo ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd
(you'll then be asked for the admin password)
sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd
sudo ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd
(this will confirm the permissions change)
exit

5) At this point you should be able to fire up Netextender as normal with no problems.
