I have a system that would like to connect to the net but does not have the time to compile the netnews software (I actually have two sites). Is there anyone out there that would be willing to send it to me for the 3b2 for a small fee? If so, please let me know. Does AT+T have it compiled already for the 3B2? Thanx in advance. -- Jesse W.

Or administer it for that matter ... The compile is the *easy* part. You still have to do all the site specific stuff like build mailpaths, set up the sys file, and generate an *up* *to* *date* active file (always fun :-) which takes a lot longer than compiling the software. -- Lyndon Nerenberg VE6BBM / Computing Services / Athabasca University {alberta,decwrl,lsuc}!atha!lyndon || lyndon@cs.AthabascaU.CA The Connector is the Notwork.
