I've had some luck using the AmigaNOS program. It would appear to be a port of 'NOS' (network operating system?), which was an enhancement of Ka9q, the original packet radio SLIP program for PC clones. I believe that someone else asked this before, a couple of weeks ago, I'm asking again: Does anyone have the 'socket.h' file required to compile it? It would appear that there are no files ending with names beyond 'n' (as if the person that archived the files did: 'lharc a amiganos19 *' from a shell that expanded the wildcard, to be chopped by a not-always-competent OS. If there is interest, I'd like to start a mailing list of people interesting in doing SLIP with the Amiga. If you are interested, please contact me via email, and if I get enough responses I'll set up the mailing list. My hope is to eventually come up with a SANA compatible packet driver. -- :!mcr!: | The postmaster never | - Pay attention only Michael Richardson | resolves twice. | to _MY_ opinions. - HOME: mcr@sandelman.ocunix.on.ca + Small Ottawa nodes contact me Bell: (613) 237-5629 + about joining ocunix.on.ca!

It was me, I confess. I found out that the rev that you have is an old rev and that there is a newer rev somewhere on a machine whose name end with ".fi" I'm sorry I cant remember the name. I got it and it compiles fine. Now to get some time to work on it. PeterK. -- Peter Kerney. Silicon Graphics, Sydney, Australia.

It is included in the file below, on nic.funet.fi: Directory: ~pub/ham/amiga/amiganos -rw-r--r-- 1 vinsci ftp 611874 Dec 8 20:51 amiganos-900418.zoo If your distribution doesn't contain `socket.h' it is probably old or otherwise weird, so I don't see any meaning in just extracting the file in question. Get it all. There are some other files too in ~pub/ham/amiga..., but don't ask me what they are, ham-radio is not among my current hobbies... -- Leonard

One from Louis Mamakos, and a later version based on it from G1YYH. The G1YYH version is V1.9 and is the most stable of the two. Which version is on nic.funet.fi?

I have sent mail to the above address, but I haven't gotten a reply yet, so I decided to post it. I would like to be included on the mailing list for SLIP, and I also would be interested in joining ocunix.on.ca.
