Questions:

(1) What is the BIN account used for?  Is it really supposed to be able to do
things like rewrite the passwd file?  Should this account have a password
associated with it?

(2) Are there TERMCAP libraries around here?  Can I just swipe them off
the local
UNIX system?

(3) I dunno what I did, but for some reason I can no longer change my passwd on
a user account.  Perhaps writing the passwd file from the BIN account
had something to do with this?

(4)) (A FAQ) Where do I get the (native) 386 version?

Thanks,`
