If you use the packet drivers (Crynwr's or ftp's), just load up
winpkt.com with the same vector as your pkt driver.  So if you have a
509, then

3c509 -n -w 0x61  /* you probably don't need the -w anymore */
winpkt 0x61
ipxodi
netx

That's it.

I just did a quick test with WinMosaic 2.0a4. News seems to work again. It
also crashed for me in 2.0a3.

Microsoft Windows..If there is, could someone let me know where i can find it?

I'm using this product and have registered it.  It's _very_ nice, and Caeser
is updating it regularely.  I think it's up to 1.12 now.  The latest version
can be found on:

deathstar.resnet.upenn.edu

In either /incoming/clients/ or /pub/irc/clients/windows/wsirc/ as wsirc12.zip.

Ciao, Roddie

I'll bet a registered copy of my ftp server that this is because
you're using PC-NFS as your winsock stack.  They seem to have a major
problem with this.  This is at least one of the reasons why I don't
recommend use of PC-NFS unless absolutely necessary.

Until someone from the suppliers of PC-NFS can get in contact with me,
I am going to carry on telling people that PC-NFS is NOT the way to go
for winsock, since this and a couple of other bugs make it difficult
or impossible to run any kind of automated server.

Alun.

PC-NFS has exactly this same problem with my wftpd ftp server.  I view
this as yet another reason why PC-NFS isn't to be considered as a
contender in the winsock arena.  Unfortunately, some people have made
the choice to use PC-NFS as their network provider, and they are
currently stuffed as far as trying to run any kind of automated
servers.

I have also not heard from any representatives of the makers of
PC-NFS, so I haven't been able to report this as a problem.  I have
asked all my users who use PC-NFS (many of them now don't use PC-NFS)
to get in contact with the suppliers' tech support, but no-one has yet
got back to me on this issue.

Alun.
