Lately, I've had problems getting reliable transfers from simtel20 (yes, in the tenex mode.) Most of the files I've had problems with are from the pd1:<msdos.gif/graphics> directories. It seems pkxarc and pkunpak both fail in the crc test upon extraction of the .arc files. Additionally, the file "pk361.exe" (I think that was the file, a self-extracting executable) did not extract files as promised, but merely crashed my AT. Has anyone experienced similar problems? There are several files that seem interesting to me, and I am having a bear of a time with them. Thanks for any help/suggestions... --M. Mark A. Heilpern heilpern@brl.mil
