Can anyone out there lend a hand? >thanks, >..walter Please send e-mail to me: tba@pws.bull.com I have experience with the Bull DPX-2/3xx line, as well as Universe/Ult-ix, Pick, etc. I'll do what I can to help. I am *very* curious as to who you've talked to at Bull locally, and maybe can we can avoid this in the future. I have not yet met an single Bull Unix support person who doesn't like to talk about his DPX-2, so I will try to get that person the right materials if that is what is lacking. KNOW BULL -- Todd B.
