I am not one to ask for things, especially favors from the people on the
net, but I am running out of options,....quick. 'adaptex' exists due to
my boss and I buying all the components so we might better help those
on the net. We both know that getting into our tech support hot line
is difficult and while my areas of responsibility are to OEM's and
distributors, we felt that this would be another way to help our customers.
Try as we may, we have been very unsuccessful in getting our manangement
to understand the benefits of being on the net. SO they have refused to pay
for the system we have here. My boss is pulling the system out and 'adaptex'
will be going away. The only recourse I have is to ask the net folks for
help. I have tried my best to help those who have asked for help, and have
been successful for the most part in helping those of you who have asked
for it. I would like to continue doing so, but the only way I can is to
ask a favor. I would like to ask those who feel the information they have
gotten from 'adaptex' has been helpful, to go on a letter writing campaign
to:
Attn: Roger McLean and Wayne Gartin
Adaptec Inc.
691 S. Milpitas Blvd.
Milpitas, CA. 95035
This is a last ditch effort, please help if you feel you have been helped.
If this is not successful, then 'adaptex' will be off the net October 28,
1989. Those of you who have not gotten the files off of 'adaptex' should
try at:
adaptex Any ACU BAUD 8174886893 --gin:-BREAK-gin:-BREAK-gin:-BREAK-gin: suucp
BAUD = 9600, 2400, 1200
uucp adaptex!/usr/spool/uucppublic/scsiutil/list /usr/spool/uucppublic/list
or
uucp adaptex!~/list /usr/spool/uucppublic/list
The '~' should work know, but if not then use the full path.
If we go off the net, then let me say it has been a pleasure working with
all of you. Thanks, in advance.
