For now, I'm going to go back to 1.0 ParNet. Ow, there is something wrong here... At least on my A1000 the speed stayed around 28KBytes/sec between versions. Perhaps the speed of the 2500 is causing some inefficiency that I did not notice with my A1000. >Fixes some problems, introduced a few others. The Amiga shell can't cd >to a net: directory.

I need some of these debugging programs! Actually, I need to get myself an A3000 to make use of the MMU for debugging. The 1.06 UUCP UUCico also has memory problems. >Kent Polk: Southwest Research Institute (512) 522-2882 >Internet : kent@swrinde.nde.swri.edu >UUCP : $ {cs.utexas.edu, gatech!petro, sun!texsun}!swrinde!kent -- -Matt Matthew Dillon dillon@Overload.Berkeley.CA.US 891 Regal Rd. uunet.uu.net!overload!dillon Berkeley, Ca. 94708 USA
