Lines: 26 I managed to get tip to work, but what term type do I tell the Sun I'm using? What are those "last message received XXX times" errors about? Anybody got kermit 5a (?) going? Is the vt10[02] emulation good? Is there a better term program? MS-Kermit is very nice, but I hope to be leaving that behind. rz gets *lots* of checksum errors with my 9600 modem. The modem is doing error correction, so that I don't think *that's* the problem. Is BSD too slow to keep up? Will a 16550 (?) UART help? extract complained that it couldn't find src01.install. Why not? Should I worry? Why isn't extract a script so that I can fix it when it breaks? I understand why a real crypt wasn't included, but Linux has one. Shouldn't it be easy to plug it in? What will have to be recompiled besides login, su, & passwd? (crypt, I guess:-) Oops, one more. I've got a DCA ethernet card; I don't know anything else about it. It's not recognized on boot-up. Is there any chance that I can do something easy or am I likely SOL? -- Jay Pfaffman, Computer Coordinator pfaffman@pilot.njin.net Dwight-Englewood School, 315 E.
