To: [e-mail] (TCP Group)

Since the next CNC is here in Minneapolis, I've recently been
wondering if it would be worth providing a "conference net"
of some sort. First, I have to say that I'm not involved in
any official capacity at all - I've just been wondering as I
drive past the venue twice a day during my commute..

We have an internet gateway here, and we should have a 9600
baud repeater RSN. Would enough people use a "conference
repeater" if we were to provide one (hooked into the rest of
the net, naturally). I'd like to gauge the amount of interest,
before we start putting a system together.. Negative replies
are as useful as postive ones, it's a non-trivial effort, so
if you're coming but wouldn't use it, say so.

Specific replies to me, via email, I'll summarize. General comments
to the group please.

Andy,

If you have an Interent connection at the conference site, how about
carrying the actual meeting (audio and possibly video) over the Internet
MBONE (Multicast Backbone)?

Subject: MacNet - help..
To: [e-mail] (tcp-group)

I'm trying to help someone that is using Mac/Net and an AEA PK-88.
He's having a similuar problem to one that I had with NOS and my PK-232
where the tnc will send packets out but it doesn't hear anything come
back. The solution on the PC was to use the 'param ax0 dtr 1 & param ax0
rts 1' commands but the same command doesn't seem to work on Mac/Net. Does
anyone know what the equivilent commands are??? Or if there is another
cure for this problem?

>Where do you get the 4-com?  phone number?

We got ours at the local Computer City.  I have seen them advertised in Computer
Shopper as well.  I'll try to find out more info at the WETNET meeting tonight.

>P.S.  will it work with linux as an AST 4 Port Clone?

I don't know what the AST looks like, but the 4-Com looks 'exactly' like four
16550's to NOS and should work just fine with linux.

Subject: Using other programs with Packet
To: [e-mail]

    Hola:

    You can use other programs with Packet Radio: the configuration is that

    You must have a TNC or a Computer like a Front End Radio, and a Computer
with this other programs.

    The TNC or Front End Radio must run a program like jnos, nos or wnos.
    This station side must have a least two port:

        .- one on radio.
        .- other serial line (slip).

    Your Computer must have a least one port:

        .- serial lineal (slip)


    Diagram:


      ****************          ***************
      *TNC o Computer*          *Your Computer*
      ****************          ***************
   *--------!            !-----------!
     radio                serial line
                        (slip)


    Programs:

         TNC o Computer Front End: run a program which understand AX25 and slip
like  jnos, nos, wnos so on.

    Your Computer : Run a driver with slip option. In Windows like: winsock.

    In Your computer you can use a gopher, archie, PCEudora, NCSA Telnet,
WWW, etc, etc, etc, programs. You will be able to fun a envioresmen grafics via
radio.

    You will be able to have too a gopher server via radio, or a archie
server via radio, etc, etc

Subject: Where is WNOS5?
To: [e-mail]

I and a few of us in Toronto use WNOS4a9p which is the friendly and
end-user oriented program. Recently, posted on ucsd.edu, I spotted a
WNOS5 source code. Is anyone going to compile it and publish?

I have tried to contact [e-mail] [150.162.61.70]
([e-mail] [44.174.1.2]), the bulletin board that suppose
to issue a wnos digest. But up to date, I have received no response.

Nor have I been successfull to contact Barry Titmarsh
<[e-mail]>, GM8SAU ex DC0HK.

Does anyone there know the status of WNOS development?
