Really, you can't be serious about that question?!?  But assuming you are
Xenix 286 addresses 16M (the address space of the 80286), and Xenix386
handles 4 Gigabyes in unsegmented mode. As I indicated in a previous posting
the problem with pathalias arises because of the segmentation on the 286
machine. Greg Laskin (greg@gryphon.CTS.COM) has ported the pathalias code
to Xenix 286 and it handles the complete world maps flawlessly. For anyone
that missed that article the altered archive can be obtained uucp from the
system turnkey at (714) 662-7450. Login is nuucp, if you call at 1200 send
an initial character or return to cyle uugetty down to 1200 baud. Request the
file "/usr/spool/uucppublic/palias.tar.Z". It includes both a compiled binary
and the source code.

						Best of luck,
