WinTalk uses ports 517 (talk) and 518 (ntalk).

No.  That is not a factor.

I have modems which have LCD front panels at my home.  When there is a
retrain going on the LCD lights up with the information, and the TST light
illuminates.

There is no pattern to it.  When it happens, it happens and happens
frequently.  I have never gotten more than 15-30 minutes in before it
happens, and usually quite a bit less.

I have two other users here who also have exactly the same pattern; start
Alpha17 by hand (ie: dial themselves since A17 has no dialer) and it is
rock solid, A18 and later either give pauses at times like I get or
outright hangs that require a nerve-pinch.

Again, A17 is solid and does not exhibit the problem.  It also doesn't have
a dialer.  This is an A18 and later bug of some form.

Subject: Wintalk on port 1111?

Does wintalk work on port 1111?  I've notice dthat Eudora and wintalk are
nearly incompatible for me.  Brown reserves port 109 for kerbeized pop
clients, so I had to set Eudora to work on 1111.  Is there a
solution to this?

Subject: Windows NT Handles and Sockets

Hello,

I'm doing some programming with NT and sockets.  I was under the impression
that in NT, sockets were implemented as HANDLES.  This would make it possible
to use sockets on functions like ReadFile/WriteFile.  However, when I try to
insert a SOCKET in place of the HANDLE in the function call, Visual C++
(NT version) refuses to accept this.  Is it possible to use sockets and
HANDLES interchangeably in any of the NT file calls?

Thanks,

Michael Platzke ([e-mail])

I'm using Reflection X by Walker Richer and Quinn Inc. (version 4.00) and it
works pretty well for me.

Sounds like a plan.  There is a file on the X Consortium's ftp server that
covers non-Unix X servers.  This might be a handy starting place, or a useful
thing to contribute to.  The name of the server used to be export.lcs.mit.edu;
I don't recall what it is now, but the latest X Window FAQ should have this
info.

Best regards,
Dave [ former X hacker ]
