WOW! that is my impression of the BC 3.1 compile vs. 2.0 - I just
started using it. The same compile on 3.1 yielded a 217K compressed
exe vs. 218K using BC 2.0 BUT the running size seems to run consistently
15-20K smaller (more core available) and the speed is noticeably faster.
Domain lookups from ramdisk etc. - I would highly recommend this update
for those that are having memory problems. I am using the -1 option in
both compiles.
Now I would like to make the necessary changes to use the -3 option. I
sent a note to Phil asking for the required changes - can anyone fill
me in on this?

Doug,
I must have missed your note in the flood (I automatically sort my
incoming mail, and anything that has "tcp-group" in it will
automatically be filed in that category even if it also mentions
"karn". And I don't read tcp-group very often since it seems to be
almost entirely about bulletin boards instead of TCP/IP these days.
Anyway, my most recent versions of NOS already support the Borland -3
option. The only real changes were in the .s files, as the interrupt
handlers have to save the 32-bit versions of the general registers. I
did make a change to the pktdrvr.c file only because of the way it
hooks to assembler. The code shrinks another 30K or so when you use
-3.

The 'if' is abbreviated from 'ifconfig' (InterFace CONFIGuration).
I never abbreviated it to 'if', always used at least 'ifc'.

I (and my colleages) use it to tell NOS how much bits are used for
network part of address, for example in network on Physics Department
(fuw.edu.pl) we use addresses 148.81.4.1 to 148.81.7.254 (..4.0 and
.7.255 are Internet broadcast addresses) and netmask is 0xfffffc00 -
this tells NOS low 10 bits are used to select computer on local net
if high 22 match our network. 73's, JT

I haven't tried it, but I know for a fact that VHF Micors, normally
phase modulated, may be frequency modulated by replacing the "3 pin"
channel elements with a "4 pin" transmit channel element. The 4 pin
elements are used in the DPL equipped Micors, and should be easy to
retrofit to a non-DPL Micor. I think Brian Kantor, brian@ucsd.edu,
has done something like this. I'm not certain how much useful deviation
you get with this approach....

There was a high-speed modem mailing list at one time but I haven't seen

Well effectively what you say is correct. The model I was using was that an
individual really only has a handful of hosts he deals with. ie, I connect to
giskard, Hobbes, Watson, UCSD. In this environment I would have a managable
folder, dropping a mail msg on UCSD would initiate an immediate smtp. Leaving
it in a "mailbox" would hold it until there was a pass thru to pick up pending
mail. Dblclking on watson would open a folder of, in OS/2 parlence, WPSfile
objects. The reason I commented on Jacks remark abt SOM was that that leaves
people with the impression that I am proposing a single vendor solution, thats
incorrect, I am proposing a stylistic solution, not a vendor one. To the extent
it will use SOM or WPS or C++ is almost academic, it could use dos windows or
NT/Cairo objects. In a word, its style and usability I am addressing more than
OS. After all, the OS only exists to provide the services and support the
overlying application needs. NOS, as we know it today has been pushing on the
limits of DOS for some time. Walt

Hi all,
I've been trying to compile wampes-921129 (latest I think) on my 386 running
Dell SVR4 v2.2. Most everything compiles except login.c.
Has anybody had success compiling wampes on a SYSV box???
Here is the problem output:

The ut_host field for some reason is not implemented on a number of systems
and the only solution is to #ifdef the code that uses it and remove it from
your version. I've had the same problem when compiling up other bits of
networking code. If you can, it may be worth using a dummy value to replace
the info that you would have obtained from this field.
