To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu Given JNOS 1.10f running on a 386/20 with 16550s on all serial ports, what's the best strategy for serial port speeds to the KISS TNCs? We're looking at a switch that will have two 9600 baud TNCs, and probably two 1200 baud ones, as well as a couple of PI cards and an ethernet board. It'll be a busy machine... To reduce latency, we would want to run the ports as fast as possible, at least 2x the radio speed. But from an interrupt and system loading perspective, are there other considerations? In particular, would we be better off running the 1200 baud TNCs with very fast serial speeds? Or should we keep them at 2400 or 4800 baud? I guess the real question is whether the system and UARTs will be happier with fast but infrequent bursts of data, or with longer but more constant ones. Any ideas?

To: tcp-group%ucsd.edu@bbs.ve3rpi I recently received a response to my request for Windows based smtp/nntp mailers which would work with JNOS (I'm using v110b), pointing to gmail.exe. (gmail.zip at ucsd.edu) The version of gmail.exe which I downloaded (206336bytes, 2/27/93) had a couple of problems. The program would not delete mail files when requested, and an options menu selection "preferences" was not operational. Also there was no current help file, as indicated in the enclosed readme file. 1. Has anyone had success running gmail? Is there a more current version, or additional information which would assist in getting the version which I have operational? 2. Are there other Windows based mailers which work successfully with JNOS? If so what are the anonymous ftp sites? 3. I am posting this to both tcp-group and nos-bbs in hopes of a more complete response.
