In the meantime, the FTP connection to minnie seems to be holding up admirably, and folks will be able to inspect the files for themselves sometime around 7 PM EST tonight (Saturday here - that's either tomorrow or yesterday in Australia, I can never remember which) in the directory /usr/home/shoppa/43bsd_tahoe on minnie. -- Tim Shoppa Email: shoppa@trailing-edge.com Trailing Edge Technology WWW: http://www.trailing-edge.com/ 7328 Bradley Blvd Voice: 301-767-5917 Bethesda, MD, USA 20817 Fax: 301-767-5927
