[comp.unix.aux] fun with A/UX

damon@inebriae.UUCP (Damon Permezel) (10/24/89)

(This is the third time I have sent it from as many different news systems.
 It never appears to make it out there.  Forgive me if I repeat myself myself.)

I need to get copies of the following files that were damaged when I got my
copy of A/UX.  I do not have an Apple format tape drive, and would prefer not
to have to buy one just to read my A/UX tape.

	/usr/bin/lp
	/usr/ucb/uuencode	(good thing uudecode works!)
	/usr/lib/sendmail

Anyone willing to uuencode them | mail to me?  Source is always acceptable...

Also, I would like to find a driver for the TEAC 150 meg tape drive.

Does anyone out there have the update service?  Is it worth it?  What did
it cost you?

Is anyone maintaining archives of useful A/UX stuff?  I (if I ever get any
spare time again) am going to pick up all the GNU stuff I can get my hands on
and make sure it works.  I would rather not spend a lot of time doing things
that are unnecessary due to someone else having already done it.  I might
also be willing to make it available to others (uucp, dialup, once I get the
TB2500) if I can get the time to organise things nicely.

Does anyone have an A/UX 1.1 bug database?  I suppose with 1.1.1.1.1.1.1
looming on the horizon, who cares right?
How about comp.unix.aux.bugs.1.1.1....?

Does anyone know if 1(.1)+ has the Van Jacobson mods to tcp/ip?  I suppose what
I am really concerned about is the header prediction/compaction w.r.t. SLIP.
Is anyone out there running NFS over SLIP?

Are there any Mac's out there directly connected to the internet?  Is this
possible for private parties?  If so, is it affordable for the impoverished
masses?

Send any and all replies directly to me ...
