  I recently (like yesterday) uploaded inn 1.6 (I think) to ref.tfs.com
in the packages directory.  It is the complete package, including the
most recent patches.  It works fine.

  Things to look out for...

  We use termios, which the Configure script messes up on.
  There is a define in config.h to make it work.  I think I fixed the
code in Configure to correctly look for a termios indicator.

  You may find that you are having problems with filexp.  The one that comes
with Configure has an error that I simply got bored trying to fix.  I use
the filexp that comes with the bsd386 base distribution, and commented out
the filexp create script segment (I think).
  The error message is some thing 'Unterminated string at line 28'.

  There were no 386bsd specifics, per se, but there were a couple of tense
moments getting it going in the first place.  If you have any trouble
with it, drop me an E-Mail (or contact me through comp.unix.bsd |-( )
and I will be glad to help anyone I can.

  Note that if anyone has trouble with it, everyone probably will.  I will
summarize and correct the problems as they arise.
