Mac OS 9 Weekend Updates

AnamanFan writes "Apple has quietly posted updates for CarbonLib 1.6 and Authoring Support 1.1.9 for Mac OS 9. Apple states in the release notes that there is a benifit for Classic users for Mac OS X for the CarbonLib update. The Authoring Support adds more compatability with iTunes. Right now, the update is not (yet) avaiable via Software Update but only via the above links." They are available via Software Update now. And -- bonus! -- there's an AirPort 2.0.4 update which allows dialing into the base station remotely, compatibility with PPTP and IPSec Windows clients, and multiple connections to port-mapped services. I don't see AirPort 2.0.4 in Software Update for Mac OS X, but I do see something there called Networking Update, improving network connections with sleep. Update: 06/22 22:32 GMT by P : AirPort 2.0.4 for Mac OS X is available, but you apparently need to install the Networking Update first.

the networking update fixes a major problem w/ network interruption after sleep - in some cases requiring a restart, in others, causing a 30sec lapse in access.

both the networking and airport updates are running fine for me on a pismo 400

After the 10.1.5 update my iBook would run kinda pokey if I chose the Sleep option from the Apple menu then woke it up. It ran just fine when I closed it up and opened it. Does this fix that problem any? I think there were others with this, but hey, who knows, really.
