Greetings!
I've finally switched over to OS X full time on my machine at home (G4/533 dual, OS X 10.1.5). I've followed the installation instructions, even set up the preferences properly, but when I attempt to launch the dnetc app I get this error: There is no application available to open the document "dnetc ".
I've tried re-downloading the client and reconfiguring, but with the same result.

Any ideas or information would be much appreciated.

Open a Terminal window, and drag the file "dnetc" into the terminal window, which should result in a path that looks something like this:

[localhost:~] chrisvre% /Applications/dnetc/dnetc

(may vary according to your folder structure-- I've got the client in a folder called "dntec" in my Applications folder)

Now, in the terminal window, type -config to set up your client options.

When you've done that and exited, repeat the above process, ecxept this time, type -runonline and the client should launch.

Good luck, and get to crunching!
