To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
This may be the wrong group for this, but I think the ka9q-unix group
has dried up? and there are probably more listeneres on here with Unix.
I am looking for the DK5SG bbs software that I belive works with Wampes??
I have looked on Ucsd.edu, and cannot see it there. Also are there any usres
with ISC Unix, that are also runing Wampes??
Thanks in advance, Mike

Hello Networkers,
I am looking for the frequently asked questions (FAQ) to this list.
Can anyone help me to get them?
Thank you

I have toyed with this: Machine A is running KA9Q. Machine B is running
Sun PCNFS. Machine C is a unix box running mountd/nfsd and connected to
machine D, another machine running KA9Q. You may then NFS mount file systems
on C from B.
B ---ether/slip----> A -----radio waves-------> D ----ether/slip----->C
PC/PCNFS PC/KA9Q PC/KA9Q Sun/nfsd
Machine B could just as well be another Unix box instead of a PC. I have
done this too. I have also done it through gateways: Machine's D/C were
on totally different frequencies, and all the packets were routed through
a machine that had TCP/IP and RF on my frequency and the remote machines
frequencies.
The stuff you guy's are talking about isn't futuristic, I did all this
about two years ago. This doesn't work too good at 1200/VHF, but one
of the 9600/UHF weinersnitzels here in the Twin Cities told me they have
stuff NFS mounted all over the place up there, and everybody is using
NOS as a router.

I don't have MS C 7.0 and tried 6.0 only. One of problems is
setjmp/longjmp implementation - not suitable for multitasking.
In Borland products, they save/set all registers, including SS,
in MicroSoft C, they save/set few registers only, NOT including SS;
result is: all stacks must be in same segment or it will not work
unless we write Borland-compatible setjmp/longjmp for MS C or
something else to do task switch.
C standard tells the setjmp/longjmp were designed for non-local
jumps between functions rather than between tasks.
Does anyone know other reasons for MicroSoft cannot be used for NOS?

To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
I'd like to build a few of the n6gn 2 Mbps 10 GHZ links described in the
ARRL handbook, but I'm having trouble understanding some of the
construction details for the preamp/transmitter board.
If anyone else has successfully built one of these links or knows an E-Mail
address for Glenn Elmore (n6gn himself), I'd like to correspond.
The return address above is an MX record reachable from the Internet.

To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
Hello!
I'm looking for a packet driver to PC*PA DRSI card,
or replacement code in assembler for the
SCC drivern to KA9Q/PA0GRI NOS..
If there is, where can i FTP it ?
I'm trying to work 9600bps G3RUH with a old PC/XT 8MHz
with V30 processor , but the C-written SCC drivern
in NOS and my 8MHz PC/XT doesn't work in 9600bps..
(up to 7200bps it work just fine..)
I running BPQ v4.05 as a driver for the DRSI card right now,
and have packet driver in NOS to talk with the BPQ/ports.
This works, but not very good...

Subject: RCS
To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu
Hi!
I recently downloaded the latest NOS source (now in RCS files),
grabbed the latest RCS for DOS I could find and tried to make.
No such luck. Apparently there is a conflict between RCS convention of
using filenames like VERSION.C%V and the command processor's desire to
expand any %-sign-something to an environment variable? Or something,
in any case, make results in:
co mktl.c
co error: RCS\mktl.c: No such file or directory
I have an (empty besides makefile) source directory and below that an
RCS directory containing all the source files. As far as I could tell
from the RCS manual page, this is as it is supposed to be, no?
Now, I am new to RCS and I am sure there is something I am missing
here. Can someone help me out, please?

1.) There have been several messages about things like 2MBps 10GHz links.
I was I have to admit looking more in the 56KBit range since I can't see
a PC coping with a 2MBps link at any speed. I'm looking for any recommendations
on books/papers on the subject that people have found useful. ESPECIALLY
working with NOS/NET since it's a bit hard to run a full service Linux
system at 1200 baud
PS: Reminds me G4KLX -> Im GW4PTS@GB7AKJ in case my packet mail doesnt
arrive.
2) I fiddled with the ka9q ax.25 code (oh foolish me), and accidentally
assumed an SABM frame is followed by no data. Strangely I was getting
crashes from a PK232 someone was using in conventional TNC mode which
was outputting 3 or 4 extra bytes on an SABM frame. Watching this TNC
in action it was also crashing any tiny-2 PMS it talked to in spectacular
style. Should those 4 bytes be there and if not what does the poor
victim of this pk232 need to do to stop it crashing things ?
