First:  I am knew to 'the wonderful world of Apollo' - someone gave me a 
DN300.  Hopefully I will make sense here.....

I lost the registry ( rgyd won't execute ),  so I figure I will just run
rgy_create and start from scratch.  Since it wasnt on the machine,  I ftp'd
rgy_create from a machine at work to a pc.  Then I used KA9Q NOS to ftp this
from a pc at my house to the DN300.  When I try to run rgy_create, stuff
like this comes up:  ( ??? denotes graphic characters)
/install/tools/rgy_create:???: not found
/install/tools/rgy_create:???: not found
..
..
..
/install/tools/rgy_create:??? ??? ???: not found
/install/tools/rgy_create: syntax error at line 1: `end of file' unexpected
..
..

I have also seen a message like 'unexpected control character in line 1'
come up.   After screwing around abit, I found that almost any executable
that I transfer to the DN300 does pretty much the same thing.  How do you
get an executable to one of these if it is not on the network ?  What is
going on here?

Also, if one of you kind people would offer to help me get the registry
problem fixed, I would greatly appreciate it.  Right now I can't add
accounts or change passwords etc.  This is going to be used for public
access unix via Amateur Packet Radio - .ampr.org .  Oh yeah - I am using
SR10.1 and BSD4.3 for an environment.
