I am looking to connect my PC to the usenet. I have heard of a program
called uupc. Any info on that program or any other package would be helpful.
thanks,
bob

Could you explain? I recently installed UUPC (the version released two years ago), and outside of a few initial hacks to make it go, it's been working just fine for me. I am suffering from trying to keep three different mailers (UUPC, CP/Mail, and unix 4.2) straight, so what's one more? :-) -- Bill Swan entropy.ms.washington.edu!sigma!bill Send postal address for info: Innocent but in prison in Washington State for 13.5 years: Ms. Debbie Runyan: incarcerated 01/1989, scheduled release 07/2002.

fsuucp is (yet another) PC uucp implementation. The difference is that it also has READNEWS and supports "real" news, as opposed to kludging news through mail. Currently, release 1.00A Beta is available. Bug reports are coming in from users of this version, and i am updating the beta about every 2 weeks. The final version is scheduled to be ready around the end of July. Your can get a copy via FTP from polyslo.calpoly.edu, or download one (sorry, only xmodem at 1200 for now) from my BBS at +1-805-544-9234. The BBS is another project to be released on the 24th of August, so bear with it if you call. The fsuucp package is shareware, with a $35 donation requested. All registered users will recieve a final version disk and pronted manual via paper mail free of charge.

However, there is serious software rot in the low level comm drivers for the system (the BBS is in beta testing as well as fsuucp), and as such the system is VERY shakey. As soon as the problems are worked out, I will add anon uucp to get the package. Plea: If there is a guru out there who understands or has written turbo pascal or turbo c routines for interfacing with a FOSSIL driver on the PC (such as x00.sys), Pleeeeease contact me, I'm having problems that I cannot understand. (like the incoming buffer just stops working every so often, characters are missed on occasion, etc etc.) I can be reached as cambler@polyslo.calpoly.edu or voice at +1 805 546 0820 ++Christopher(); -- Christopher J.
