If you get tired of filling requests, you can point folks to my BBS, which as I have mentioned here before, is the central distribution point for all new releases of the software that Phil, and I, and others have written. The info is 303/593-0766, pretty much 24hrs/day, 300/1200/2400 baud. No real restrictions on first time users. It seems more fair to me that individuals pay the phone freight than that multiple mailings cause multiple companies/individuals to have to pay for a long phone call... The files are also available for uucp request from winfree, but I do not currently allow anonymous uucp logins.

My mailbox overrunneth!!! I'm averaging one request per hour for Phil's code. Here's how to obtain the distribution via anonymous UUCP from 'ncc'. First, add the following line to your L.sys file: ncc Any ACU 2400 14034250342 "" \r ogin:--ogin: nuucp or for 1200 baud access ncc Any ACU 1200 14034250342 "" BREAK\r ogin:-BREAK\r-ogin: nuucp The distribution is split into four files as follows: -rw-rw-r-- 1 lyndon 0 Jul 22 11:24 FILES -r--r--r-- 1 lyndon 61089 Jul 21 11:53 exe.tar.Z -r--r--r-- 1 lyndon 42474 Jul 21 11:54 misc.tar.Z -r--r--r-- 1 lyndon 142666 Jul 21 11:52 src.tar.Z -r--r--r-- 1 lyndon 96487 Jul 21 11:54 tnc.tar.Z exe.tar.Z contains the MS-DOS binaries misc.tar.Z is the documentation and bm (Bdales Mailer) src.tar.Z is the source code for everything except bm tnc.tar.Z contains the Terminal Node Controller stuff (not needed for Minix) FILES is a list of the current directory contents All files are in 16 bit compressed format. Once you've decided which files you require, queue up a SEPERATE request for each file as follows: uucp ncc!~/pub/ka9q/src.tar.Z /usr/spool/uucppublic/ka9q/ ^^^^^^^^^ Replace with appropriate filename You should take a copy of the FILES file first, just incase the distribution breakdown is changed. Please note that this is NOT the most current release of the software. I have been waiting for the new versions to stabalise a bit before bringing an updated copy in. Given the amount of interest I will be obtaining the most current release in the next couple of days. You might want to wait for it (I will post an announcement as soon as it's online). If you have any problems with UUCP, send mail to me and I'll check into it. Lyndon Nerenberg VE6BBM alberta!ncc!lyndon pyramid!ncc!lyndon -- Ollie for president: the tradition continues.

Why doesn't someone just post the source.... It can't be all that big. I have seen several postings (part1...partn) that have made it through the Net. Go for it! ptc@hpindda (408) 447-2739

Go for it! The compressed tar file on our machine is 1/2 meg. The uncompressed tar file is almost 1 meg. That is a LOT of stuff to be mailing around. Do we really want that? Jim

The current version of the sources are available from the internet host
louie.udel.edu. A release is scheduled some time this month - so it
might just be best to hold off a few days.
There is a mailing list for developers working on this code - send a
message off to tcp-group-request@sdscvax.ucsd.edu (or whatever the
uucp-mail address is there, I dunno about that).

No No No No No! The package *IS* big, though much, much smaller than the PC/IP source distribution. Much easier for those who care to get it from louie, via uucp, or from my bbs. Why make the whole world pay distribution charges for something so few have an immediate need for? The code on louie was just updated by Phil to rev 870526.5, which contains quite a few internal changes from the .0 release. I'm working on integrating his changes with stuff from a *lot* of other folks to issue another major release. I'd really hate to waste net bandwidth with code that's about to be obsolete, since I assume most folks have 870526.0... If we ever get a release that we're happy with, maybe a post to one of the sources groups would be appropriate. With the rate things are changing right now, I don't think so. The big news for this group is that the new release in a week or two will have support for running as a single process under bsd or sysV. Assume that with a serial port driver for Minix (I don't have one? Did the post not get here?), that it will be trivial to bring it up there too as a single process. Not wonderful, but a start! >The compressed tar file on our machine is 1/2 meg. The uncompressed tar >file is almost 1 meg. That is a LOT of stuff to be mailing around. Do >we really want that?
