- He just said it was totally bugged out. The operative word is "was".
- The demand for IBrowse 0.81 reached limits we hadn't see before, and
- the ftp server was crashing every 20 minutes (roughly). Other
- commitments - and the problems of fetching kernel source over a loaded
- line :-( meant it stayed that way until a bit after noon March 22, at
- which time a new kernel with several static internal table sizes
- increased was installed. It's been stable since. The connection still
- gets pretty crowded (and if you're bummed about it, think about how I
- feel, with that line to go through on matter WHAT site I'm connecting
- to!).
-
- Basically, try the ftp site again. And be thankfull that your
- preferred platform doesn't HAVE silly things like statically allocated
- tables deep in the heart of the OS.
