I have no problems running Mosaic 2.0a3 on my i486/33 8 MB RAM, Diamond
Stealth24 (S3-805) at 1024x768 (256 colors). I use FTP's PC/TCP 2.3.
But I use Windows 3.11 and NOT WfW 3.11.

I'm running the commercial version of Eudora (2.0.1) and it provides for an
alternate signature file (signatur.alt).

On a 486/33 with 8Mb memory (WfWG 3.11 and MS TCP/IP beta) - ftp transfer rate
with QVTNet 3.9 was around 240kb/sec. With the Microsoft supplied ftp it was
around the same.


Chameleon32 NFS FTP runs at 6 kb/sec.

May be, that this here does the job (for me it does ;-)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Try 'ka9q' as sliprouter. It works with an 286/10, 640kB however an
386/25, 1MB would be better, especially if you want to serve more
then one line. Your COM-Ports should have an 16550 UART. The
ethernetcard may be a cheap ne2000 clone.

You need the following software:

nos11b.exe  or another compilation of ka9q/Nos which uses packetdrivers
            I prefer this, because there are built-in ftp/pop3/pop2 and
            gopher Server, and it works very stable here  ...

sliplog.com This is an access-controlprogramm for your slpgate. I wrote
            this some weeks ago and made an archive of it (sliplog.zip),
            togehther with other useful stuff and an example, which
            describes how to set up the nos, the routing-details and
            so on...

You'll find this archive together with several versions of NOS and some
important documents (nos_1229.lp, wnos4doc.zip) on:

mvmpc9.ciw.uni-karlsuhe.de <129.13.118.9> in /gopher/public/nos

If you ftp with 'ws_ftp' you must setup 'ka9q/nos' as servertype.
If you have problems with your GUI-ftp, then use a commandline-ftp
or use a gopher-client on port 70.

bye,
    Karl-Heinz
