Wenn man unter Mint Mintnet benutzt, um über die Netusbee oder Hydra auf das Netzwerk zuzugreifen, so funktionieren erstmal nur Programme, die auch das Mintnet API benutzen. Damit man den älteren Standard Stik bzw Sting benutzen kann, muss ein kleines Hilfsprogramm namens Gluestik installiert werden.
Am besten ruft man Gluestik aus der Autostartsequenz von Mint auf, nachdem man Netzwerktreiber und Mintnet geladen hat. Wichtig ist, daß die spezielle Konfigurationsdatei von Gluestik sinnvolle Werte enhält.
Bei mir hatte es zwar mal ohne eine solche funktioniert, aber danach hatte ich dann irgendwie Probleme.
Die folgende Datei sollte unter C:\STIK_CFG\DEFAULT.CFG abgelegt und mit sinnvollen Werten belegt werden. Vorallem Emailaddresse und die diversen Serveradressen, etwa NAmeserver und SMTP Host, sollten vernünftige Werte haben.
Die Einstellungen bzgl PPP können bei Betrieb mit einem LAN-Interface natürlich ignoriert werden. Das originale STIK (ST Internet Access Kit) war für Betrieb mit einem Modem ausgelegt.
# STiK config file C:\STIK_CFG\DEFAULT.CFG
#
# VAR = VALUE :standard format
#
# Non existent vars are 0 (FALSE) by default.
# Variables without "= value" are set to ON
# Variables with " = " but no value are set to 0. (ie: = nothing)
#
# TRUE and ON are acceptable substitutes for 1
# FALSE and OFF are acceptable substitutes for 0
#
# Lines not beginning with an alphabetic character are ignored.
#
# Currently only 100 variables can be specified. Extra VARs are ignored.
#
# The variable names and boolean values are not case sensitive.
# Values may be case sensitive depending on usage.

# Memory to be reserved. This is for ALL of TCP's internal memory
# requirements, except the space to store the config file.
# This includes all input queues, output queues, DNS cache, etc...
# It must be large enough to cope, plus a bit extra for luck 
# If unset, defaults to 75000 bytes.
#
ALLOCMEM = 100000
#
# Use the program `listport.tos' to list the serial ports
# available with your hardware configuration. Use the
# port name exactly as it appears in the listport display,
# including correct capitilisation and spaces.
#
# If SERIALPORT is not set, or has an invalid port name,
# the default is to use the first port listed by listport.tos
# So if that port is the one you want to use, you don't need
# to set this variable.
#
SERIALPORT = Modem 2

# CDVALID Set this variable to FALSE if your modem doesn't assert
# Carrier Detect properly.

# Also in situations where you aren't using a modem. Such
# as a NULL modem cable.

# your address at login time, it will override this value.

# Response to incoming TCP packets to unknown ports
# 0 = default (3 = send ICMP)
# 1 = ignore
# 2 = send TCP RST
# 3 = send ICMP `unknown port' response
#
# 3 is the `correct' response, but when connecting to an IRC server
# it attempts to contact your identd on port 113. If it thinks you
# don't have identd, it will most probably reset your IRC session.
# Until I have written an identd, response 1 or 2 should fool at least

SLICE = 0
Danach sollte dann auch CAB ohne besondere Proxies funktionieren. Wenn man die Bilder abschaltet, ist auch mein Blog hier mit CAB durchaus lesbar.
Spezieller Dank der Community von atari-home.de, die mir beim Debuggen des Problems hilfreich zur Seite stand.
Frohes Netzen mit Mint!
