Keywords: DNET, Jeremym Jeremy, 43 Message-ID: <15030@brahms.udel.edu> Date: 22 Oct 90 18:08:44 GMT Organization: University of Delaware Lines: 79 Well, the people who told me (again and again) to use zoo e// dnet *WERE* correct. It split the unix and amiga sides great. I uploaded them, compliled it, and whamo. It worked. (acutally, not at first.) I got a post (mail) from someone (sorry, dude!) who solved all my troubles. The command to start DNET on the Amiga's side is: 1> run dnet -P0 -Z0 -m -X -8 On Unix: %dnet -m0 Now, I don't know why this works, or really care - the only thing is - *IT WORKS!!* Ok ok ok.... So, for all those who wanted to know.. there ya go. Now: Some questions, (and (hopefully) answers) 1) Why must I stack 50000 before I run dnet? Or the guru comes to call. How can I fix this? ie: memory 'aint a problem, I have 5 megs, but, to me, the extra keystrokes are DAMN annoying. 2) I want a shell-startup alias to do the above amiga run command. like : alias dnet -P0 -Z0..etc GOdNET. I'm uncussessful. Help. 3) If I have more than one FTERM running, and I want to get or put a file ... how do I tell putfiles and getfiles which fterm it is? It is phychic? I dont think so. 4) I want serious vt100 emultion. And hell, it's not even 80 cols. What can be done about this? Ie: Perfect bliss would be letting me use my itsy bitsy teenie weenie term program called TERMINAL. It's small, and has perfecto vt100 elumation. Get the picture? Good. 5) I have three separate accounts on three separate mainframes. a. brahms (which many of you know) b. freezer (my newest and the one I should be contacted at!) and c. Vax1 The DNET is installed on Freezer. If I have a file on Brahms I want to download (or upload or whatever) how will fterm know I want to put the file there, and not on the Freezer account? 6) A one window Dnet is fast. But, a one window Dnet kinda defeats the purpose of DET, no don't it? How (other than an HST) can I get my DNET running faster? I'm sure there's a way. Actually, if Dillon wrote it, it can't get any faster, rite? :) 7) Who thinks Dillon and Khalid Aldiorsi should get in a room together and program till their eyes fall out? 8) who would win? 9) Why do I always post 43 in the keywords? (Potentially important trivial persuit question, here!) 10) Notice how nice it is having exactly 10 questions? Ps: A special thanks to Tad Guy, a ritchous dude, who, definately deserves thanks. (if not serious $$) :) Who can ANSWER ME? (oops 11 questions, damn.) -l8r E Pluribus// Ok.. Contacts, right: ***NEW ADDRESS** **NEW ADDRESS** UNIX // Primary NET : jeremy@freezer.it.udel.edu // Secondary NET : jeremym@brahms.udel.edu \\ // Third-i-ary : jeremy@vax1.udel.edu \X/ Amiga's rule, but then again, who doesn't really know this?? ---> Know what I hate most? Rhetorical questions. <---
