Well, I want to apologize to those that have been waiting for the mode
sense software for the AHA-1540 board. I got so many responses (>300)
that I thought I would set my system up so those of you who want it can
call and retrieve it yourself. The files are compressed binaries that
can be executed under MS-DOS. You need to to add this entry to your
Systems file:
adaptex Any 2400 18174886893 --gin:--gin:--gin: suucp
You can snarf the following compressed binary files via uucp.
GETDEVS.EXE.Z GRDRIVE.EXE.Z GREAD.EXE.Z GWRITE.EXE.Z
README.Z SCSI.EXE.Z SCSICNTL.EXE.Z SCSIHA.SYS.Z
SETSCSI.EXE.Z
Use the following command:
uucp -m adaptex!~/filename /usr/spool/uucppublic/filename
Replace 'filename' with the appropriate name of the file that you want. To
those who only want the mode sense fiddler, it is the SCSICNTL.EXE file. No
matter which files you snarf, always get the README file.

Well, you think you got everything going your way and guess what?
You got it!! My Boss decided to save a buck and bought a serial
cable from some garage shop and it didn't have pin 8 wired through.
This has been driving me nuts for 3 days. Of course you folks that
decided to call 'adaptex' couldn't get through,....I mean how can a
computer answer a line when it can't see carrier detect. Everything
is okay, (maybe) for now. Sorry for any inconvienece this may have
caused. I hope it didn't match my level of frustration.

Well due to more modem problems, don't bother trying to call 'adaptex'
until further notice. Sorry for the trouble this may have caused. I know
a lot of people wanted the software, but until my modem troubles are
cured, I'll ask you to wait. Please don't sedn anymore E-mail for the
stuff. I have already gotten over 500 responses. I am working hard to get
the thing taken care of and hope to have it fixed RSN.

I am working hard to get >the thing taken care of and hope to have it fixed RSN. Roy Neese of Adaptec fame has graciously made his SCSI drive setup program available to me. I've placed it in my public-access filesystem which should be available by uucp: Make an entry in your Systems file like so (speed = 1200-19200): medsys Any ACU speed 16152883957 --ogin:--ogin:--ogin: nuucp and then do: uucp medsys!/u/xbbs/msdos/neese.scsi /usr/spool/uucppublic The file neese.scsi contains README.Z and SCSICNTL.EXE.Z. This file is also available by direct login and download from the bbs: dial 1-615-288-3957, login as bbs, file is in msdos file area either as neese.scsi (uuencoded) or SCSI.ARC. __ __| __ __ LaVerne Olney -- Med-Systems |/^\/^\ /__) / | (__ | | (__ Medical Office Management Software | | | \__ \__| ___) \__| ___) 1932 Brookside Road | Kingsport, TN 37660 U.S.A.

Are those SCSI utilities available somewhere for anonymous
ftp? If not, could somebody, who can access medsys or has them do so ?

If not, could somebody, who can access medsys or has them do so ? I've placed a copy of neese.scsi (scsi disk utility and readme) on host cs.ubc.ca[128.189.97.5]. Login as anonymous ftp and fetch scsiutil/neese.scsi. Enabling the Wren IV disk cache can make an enormous difference in system performance. My 386/16 with an AHA1540A and Wren IV running SCO Xenix 2.3.1 can copy a 1 megabyte file to /dev/null in 6 seconds with the cache enabled; with the cache disabled, the same copy takes 17 seconds. Thankyou, Roy Neese, for making this utility available. Frank Pronk uucp: pronk@merlin.uucp or ..!uunet!ubc-cs!merlin!pronk domain: pronk@driver-design-labs.bc.ca
