I have try to use in several times with google search on another pc .but I cannot setup the networking on this SGI o2. now it is on the shelf like others old pcs.

Hi, great, that there are still people at least thinking
on powereing up their SGI stuff. Setting up networking on
the O2 should be not that difficult:

Log in, from the 4DWM Toolchest choose the System Manager. There
you will find "Networking and Connectivity" on the left panel.
This will display a menu on the right hand side and using the
first topic "Network Interface Manager" you can set up IP address,
system name etc. It should even accept DHCP configuration....
