This version(V1.01) fixes a problem seen with FTP's PCTCP. This problem could cause system hangs when performing certain file operations.

I was not referring to DOS as a platform, but rather xNOS as a tcp/ip stack. There is alot of new technology, MIME, Mosaic, Gopher etc, that is coming into wide acceptance. One could make the argument that Gopher has come and gone before being incorporated into NOS. To get this technology (RFC's) incorporated into a DOS based nos would require a fairly broad (read that as greater than zero) development base for DOS based NOS. I just don't see that anymore. I believe the 'rude awakening' is that for those that want to hang on to a DOS based nos they have to realize, or will shortly, that what they see is what they get and have to, for the most part, live with. The new stuff will be in OS/2 versions, Linux versions etc. Walt ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Aug 1994 04:34:50 GMT From: bdb@GTS.ORG (Bruce Becker) Subject: Okie Thoughts #2 To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu In article , Brandon S.
