PS2Menu 2 Questions

First.
The ipconfig.dat file in the program was not the setting for my network. So I added a new file to the save. When it loads it reads the file then 2 lines later the program reads it cannot find the file and goes to the default settings. How do I change this to that it will read my settings?

Second
As far as the host goes, which program works best? I am looking of rone that can transfer programs and game saves. I would like to use the NA. Isi t possible to use the ps2vfs program for the host and if so how do I get PS2menu to see and use it. I also have ps2client but am not 100% sure how it works.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The ipconfig.dat is only for ps2netfs, if you aren't using ps2netfs don't worry about it. I think it actually is in mc0:/sys-conf/ so that it can be used globally by all homebrew and not in the ps2menu save.

Generally, to have host: filesystem in ps2menu you have to run ps2menu through ps2link (or naplink).

ps2menu does not support ps2vfs and I doubt it ever will.

The ps2netfs aware clients can be used on the PC to copy files to/from the PS2 when ps2menu is running and ipconfig.dat is setup, but I haven't really used it so I can't really help you with it.

I have ps2link 1.22 running on the PS2 side. Then I used the ps2exec to load ps2menu and it locks ip on the above mentioned .irx file. How would I go about getting ps2menu to work then? Is the ps2exec not the proposed way of loading the program?

I have ps2link running on the PS2 side. I can run ps2exec fine to send programs. When I try to use ps2client, I get the 3 error messages. What am I missing? What else am I going to need to get the ps2client and the host funtion to work to be able to transfer programs and saves from ps2menu?

ps2client works fine for me with 2.6b but with 2.61 I get (probably the same) error messages. I thought maybe it was 'cause the person who compiled 2.61 was using a version of the netfs library that wasn't compatible with the ps2client I was using.

Where did you find ps2client 2.1b at. All I can find is 2.0.

Stupid question but do I need to have the elflist.txt with the ELF file? What do I need to have with it, the location of the file on the PC or what?
