Slight correction to the file name fot rhe BFTP sources at VENERA.ISI.EDU. After trying to get them with a script, i discovered that the name is not BFTP.1.tar.Z, but BFTP.2.tar.Z. ^ -jim mccoy ------------------------ mccoy@accuvax.nwu.edu ------------------------ "Far too many notes for my taste..." -Phantom of the Opera

(In this case, the path name on a reference to an include-file was corrected.) If there is a major advance, I'll make an announcement on the tcp-ip list, otherwise you should be able to tell whether you've got the latest version by checking the number. Sorry about the confusion. --Annette
