I have problems using PKZIP 1.02. An error occurs when PKZIP has finished
it's job with zipping a number of files. I get the message 'out of memory'
when I want to start any program under 4DOS. A few internal functions of
4DOS still function though, one of them is memory, which gives the following
interesting result:
655,360 bytes total RAM
1,048,320 bytes free
512 bytes total environment
42 bytes free
2,512 bytes total alias
1,077 bytes free
2,048 bytes total history
Under COMMAND.COM I got the message 'Fout bij toewijzen geheugen' ('Error to
assign memory'), and the next line is 'Command kan niet gestart worden'
('Command cannot be started').
The result of this is a neccessary reboot.
By the way, I had the same problems with PKZIP 1.10.
What is going on?
I am using 4DOS, Tulip MsDOS 3.30, Tulip AT compact computer, PCSA 3.0
(also known as 'VMSservices for MsDOS' or 'LANworks for DOS'), PKZIP 1.02 or
1.10, PC-VAULT 4.3.

Same problem here once, totally different configuration: NEAT AT16, PKZIP, 4DOS, No LAN. suggestions? -- Rob.
