That's why I removed ISC on my box - it did not run as advertised.
Brian assured me that a fix for the uugetty problem would be fed-exed to
be this last week - but it never arrived.  The docs are bad - real bad.  
Someone mentioned that Xwindow docs are excellent.  Chances are those are
the ones done by O'Reily ?.

I'll try ISC again in a year or so after the product (and documents)
gets cleaned up.   I must admit - the 75% discount is the major reason
I intitially selected ISC - and SCO set me back more but is a solid, stable
proven product.
