On DOS machines, there are drivers for ethernet across the parallel ports
of two PCs. You've got to rig up a special cable for it, however. I'd be
very surprised if there wasn't a Mini-HOWTO or some documentation on
getting this going under Linux.

However, to save yourself an awful lot of work, you might find it easier
to pick up a 4-port or 8-port multi-IO card to replace the 2-port job on
most standard PCs. You'd then have an extra port waiting. This is more
expensive, however, it'll save you time and give you a little more
flexibility.

Not a problem. ipfwadmin.

For the parallel port method? Two parallel cables that you can reasonably
easily take apart and solder the insides of. Networking with parallel
ports is rare enough that you'll be *very* lucky if you find anything
pre-made.

Liquid nitrogen.
Back in college, in the early 1980s, I heard a report from a
usually reliable source that someone at IBM Cambridge Scientific
Center (I think) had asked "Exactly how small can we make a System
370?" (Not including peripherals, but including all the channel
controllers.)
Several million dollars later, the answer was: about the size of a
large loaf of bread. The thing had wires coming out all over and
lived in a fish-tank (25 gal. ?) of liquid nitrogen. The cooling
used more power than running the electronics.

It loocks to me as an other programm like mgetty dont see the
lockfile and accesses ttyS3.
Make sure all programmes use the same lockfile.
(/dev/modem can be a link to /dev/ttyS3 what lead to 2 different locks to the same
com-port)
Also lock must be in pppd's options

The code is based on Danial Lawrences original MicroEmacs. As with the vi editor
vile (or is it xvile ?) which is also based on MicroEmacs then the distribution
it is constrained by Danial Lawrence - the original author.
So in answer to your question - it is throttled by the deployment of an
anti-commercial license.
However, after checking MicroEmacs 4.0, which is Danial Lawrences current
offering the following notices apply - these should equally apply to the JASSPA
distribution since it is based on the 1988 release:-
* Commercial users may use MicroEMACS inhouse.
* Shareware distributors may redistribute MicroEMACS
for media costs only.
Hence, the licence allows commercial use - what you are not allowed to do
is exploit the software commercially for profit i.e. incorporate the source
into commercial code or start selling the software for profit.
I would suggest that JASSPA include the exceptions above in their distributuion
for clarity.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Jon Green.

Sorry, the fact is: Java is as crappy as (if not more crappy than) Windoze.
If you ever tried writing an application on Java, you'll notice that its
performance is worse than the worst VB program you can write. The latest
version (2.x) is a joke. I used to have a P100 32MB RAM PC. It's so slow
that I can see how the menus are drawn. Its performance is tolerable now
after I upgraded the PC to 450Mhz AMD K6-2 with 192 MB RAM.
In fact, Javasoft is becoming more like M$: memory hogs and numberous
patches in short period of time.

Heh. The first time I installed it and got onto the net to get my mail,
it tossed the incoming mail into the bit bucket. This installation, it
seems to work ok.
But what *RILLY* maxxes me off is sendmail. It's not a mail handler, it's
a *religion*, requiring the sacrifice of small cute furry animals on a
regular basis to work properly. <sigh> IMNSFBHO, the *only* thing
holding Linux back from being a true desktop OS is its lack of *EASILY*
configurable mail tools. By this, I mean, you edit a flat ASCII file (or
run a tool provided by your friendly distro compiler), fill in some info
about your SNTP mail server, such as IP number and name, and *ALL* your
mail goes to it on a send. This *shouldn't* be that hard, dammit.
Configuring sendmail can be a *nightmare* for somebody who knows a *bit*
about what they're doing; for a rookie, it's almost impossible to deal
with without a lot of headbanging. <sigh> It *SHOULDN'T* require buying
a $30 book just to email the planet.

Bull. I've installed RH6 on a number of systems and never had a problem
with Disk Druid. What is this supposed 'bug' that's supposed to exist
in these products?
I have found, in the distributions I have worked with (RedHat 5.2,
RedHat 6 and Debian 2.1) the programs included to generally be *better*
than so-called "professional" quality software. Hobbists started this
industry and a number of others by doing it *better* than the pros.

All right here is the URL:

I would like to extract the exact URL for 'Headline News' (Real 28.8+).
The frame source says:

I'm not good at javascript, but I guess there's one 'parent' frame which
lists all the 'exact' ram URLs?
Another (hopefully) useful info: I changed the application setting in
Netscape for .ram to

and checked the output file -- it points to a ram file in my /tmp
