My thanks to Claris for releasing the PublicFolder INIT. It is a quality piece of software that addresses a sore need amongst networked Macs. I am having a problem with it, though. When PublicFolder is allowed to install, NCSA Telnet stops working, and we are no longer able to print to lwsrv on our Unix box. Since both of these involve our GatorBox, I'm wondering if maybe that has something to do with it or if other people are seeing odd things happen on their networks as a result of this INIT. Please E-mail and I'll summarize if there's any interest. Thanks in advance. Matt Hardin mdh@SR.COM

I just got a new Mac, and transfering stuff from the old to the new is A LOT easier with PublicFolder than with dozens of floppies. Wayne Folta (folta@tove.umd.edu 128.8.128.42)

I have Public Folder installed on all our Appletalk machines, along with Dumper, Broadcast, TOPS, AppleShare, Responder, Public Folder, and NCSA Telnet (obviously, not everything on each machine). Nothing has broken, and printing hasn;t been affected. This is with a FastPath 3, although I doubt that would make any difference. I'd start looking for other inits or cdevs that might be causing the problem. Jeff White University of Pennsylvania jeff@eniac.seas.upenn.edu
