Two of us here at Claris use Nodems and MacTCP verison of NCSA Telnet 2.3 on a MacPlus with a HD20 (non-SCSI disk). We don't have any problems with them after we got the Phase II software. The verison number on the disk we got from Adaptec is E428 and we have to use the Opt. B version of the driver because of the Pluses. Actually we are having one problem with this setup, AppleTalk version 53 has a bug in it that won't allow FileMaker to work correctly across the network on Macs that have the 128K ROMs. A one byte patch to the .XPP driver fixes the problem. -- Clay Maeckel * UUCP: {ames,apple,portal,sun,voder}!claris!clay (I know nothing!) * Internet: clay@claris.com * GEnie: C.MAECKEL Claris Corporation * AppleLink: Maeckel1 * CompuServe: 73057,255
