Re: Ethernet port 2
Frank,
I use an MC pro (not the artist series) with a macpro. The main reason I use the two ports is to cut internet access to the MC (There is a PC inside the MC Pro). The second reason is to have "eucon" (MC Pro) running on one ethernet cable and internet on the other.
From what I understand, the reason you can't select ethernet 2 in the "eucon" preferences is simply because your MC is plugged into the ethernet 1 of the mac pro and it is the only port it can see. If you want to use ethernet 2 you will have to unplug the ethernet cable from the Macpro and plug it into the second ethernet port.
If it work as the MC Pro (and it should), you can use any ethernet port for the MC but only one will be available in the "eucon' pref because only one ethernet port has the MC attached to it.
One thing to pay attention. You have to make sure that the ethernet port attached to the internet is the highest or the first, on the left side of the Macpro"network" preference. If not, you won't be able to have internet access.
I hope this make sense...
