[comp.sources.wanted] Source for the TALK program.

jpp@tygra.UUCP (John Palmer) (01/06/90)

Does anyone know where I can get version of the TALK program (a BSD
program for talking to someone else - like a CB simulator).

I need a version that runs on SCO Xenix 2.3.2. 

On a related topic: How does one get at the directory 
PC2:<UNIX-C> on the ftp host "wsmr-simtel20.army.mil"? It provides
for anonymous ftp, but asks for a password to get into the aforementioned
directory.

Just ignore the password request following a directory change - it
doesn't mean it.

Well, I _think_ what you want is _PD2:_ as the volume name, but anyhow,
the enter-password-to-connect-to-directory message is an artifact (read
_flake_) of _many_ FTP implementations that comes up even when _no_
password is needed, as in the SIMTEL case.  Just go ahead and ignore
the message.

	You can ftp the TALK sources from uunet.uu.net.  They are in the
directory bsd-sources/src/bsd.  Hope this helps.  If you are unable to ftp,
send me e-mail, and I can fetch them and mail them to you.
