It's pretty well documanted and may be anonymous ftp'd from simtel20. You can also send mail to request-fsuucp@polyslo.calpoly.edu. If you ftp it, I *think* what you're looking for is PD1:FSUU11R5.ZIP but no flames if I remembered wrong. ;-) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply To: tau-ceti!dogear!root@isc-br.com (Bob Kirkpatrick, Dog Ear'd Systems) A Division of Brand-X, Spokane, WA 99202
