Hello from Gregg C Levine Jon, this time the command worked. I was able to have my BitKeeper client clone your applications to my local directory. I was even able to build them correctly.
Which was the purpose of my original message. For some reason yesterday, I was not able to build them correctly, and decided to repeat the processes. I strongly suggest you should copy the contents to an CVS server someplace, especially since we don't know when the next outage is planned for bkbits.net, it could be later today, or tomorrow, or not at all. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
