Abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov, the new home of the Xanth Archives, will be down starting Friday at 1800 Eastern time until sometime Sunday due to a scheduled power outage in the building where it's located. Oh well... ...tad

Host abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov will go off-line sometime December 26th for upgrades and maintenance. Because of the nature of the work I'm going to do to the machine, the amiga archives may not return when the host initially comes back on-line. The archives should return within a week. Have a nice holiday... ...tad

Reminder: the anonymous ftp area of abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov will be unavailable starting sometime later today, and is likely to remain so for several days while I perform upgrades... ...tad

Well, abcfd20 will *not* return. It's been replaced by: ab20.larc.nasa.gov [128.155.23.64] Observent readers will notice that only the name changed... :-) (Actually, the old name will continue to work for a while since there's a CNAME record in the DNS pointing to the new name.) The hardware remains the same, though I did reformat some disks (including the disk where the ftp area resides) and gained some space. The main change on ab20 (love that new name...) is that it's now running SunOS 4.1.1... I'm also messing with the ftp server again, so there may be brief periods where things may not work right. If there's a persistent problem, send mail... So, have at it... ...tad

If there's a persistent >problem, send mail... Well, I, or maybe I should say dfilter noticed that the "dir" command now omits the group field of the normal dir listing. This through dfilter for a loop. Yes, I know about the index file at the ftp root. It just insn't updated often enough for me, so I use dfilter :-). Anyways, here's a quick and dirty awk script which will make dfilter happy: { if($3 != "") printf("%s %2s %8s %8s %8s %s %2s %5s %s\n", $1,$2,$3,"daemon",$4,$5,$6,$7,$8); else printf("%s\n",$0); } Just run the "dir" output through it, and redirect the output to some file, then run dfilter on the output file. BTW, I usually run dfilter on Unix boxes, but this script also works for gawk on the Amiga. The script will also run as a Unix shell script if made into a one-liner like so: #!/bin/sh awk '{ if($3 != "") printf("%s %2s %8s %8s %8s %s %2s %5s %s\n",$1,$2,$3, "daemon", $4,$5,$6,$7,$8); else printf("%s\n",$0); }' $1 Just make sure all the awk command is a one-liner with no CRs...
