  I just got the CMU PC/IP package up and running on a 386i.  One
problem I'm having is when I try to set the boxes IP address
(or default gateway address) via the command line rather than
in the menu interface.
  I type the command:
      custom -a 129.193.72.245 netcust
which give no errors.  I then go into the menu version ("custom netcust")
and see that the address has been changed to "129.193.255.255".  Do
the command line options work for anyone else?  

 Another question I had was whether there are any more programs out
there compiled for the CMU PC/IP?  Most notibly there is no FTP command
with the distribution.  Is there one available somewhere?


P.S.  How does CMU PC/IP compare with the KA9Q TCP/IP?  Are the any
	other PD implementations for the PC?

Thanks
John
