WinIRC was the version that Peter Tattam put out sometime ago. There is another
program called WSIRC that is recent and quite good. You can get it as
wsirc12b.zip in the ../win3/uploads directory on CICA or any CICA mirror site
(i.e. nic.switch.ch or polecat.law.indiana.edu).

In the readme supplied with the beta, under "Know Problems", the first
item is "Some Win32s applications, including **NCSA MOSAIC ALPHA 3** do
NOT function properly with this release.  This is a known problem that
we hope to have a fix for shortly."

Subject: Baud-Rate Dialing ques

Hello,  I am using Trumpet vers. 1.0a and dialing into a SLIP server.

I have a 14.4K baud modem and wonder what is the maximum speed I can use
to connect with.  For instance, with my Mac, using the same modem, I can set
the Baud rate at 57,600 baud, which I seem to be able to connect with and all
runs fine (and quickly)  When I use the same modem on my PC with Trumpet,
despite what I put as the baud rate in SETUP, the best I can connect at is
14,400 baud.  I suspect my modem isn't 'negotiating' with the answering modem
in order to obtain 56.7 baud.  What could be going 'wrong' (if anything).

I have set CSLIP compression on, and am using a hardware Handshaking cable.

-thanks in advance,    [e-mail]

Subject: MS Daytona and Mosaic 2.0a4


I loaded up Daytona and now my Mosaic doesn't work anymore.
All other apps work fine.
I don't want to go back to 16 bit anything as response time is great.
I have tried mailing NCSA, but just got an automail message how incredible the
response has been to Mosaic and that they will get back to me soon.

Any hints or pointers?

Subject: WIN32S.ZIP Good Version

Can anyone point me to a working version of WIn32s. I have tried a couple of
locations, but when I unzip the file I get CRC errors which cause the
installation to fail.

Thanks in advance.

I'm using WSAAsyncSelect with MS 32-bit beta. My test programs write
megabytes of data to the socket. It (for me) correctly responds with
WSAEWOULDBLOCK when its buffers are full, and I later get the FD_WRITE
that allows the app to continue.

However, my socket is in blocking mode when the initial connect() is issued.
When I run my tests with a non-blocking connect, I get the behavior you
describe, i.e. I never receive the FD_WRITE that would indicate I can
use the connection.

Subject: Remote Windows using WinSock?

Does anyone know of an application similar to PCAnywhere that allows remote
access of a PC running windows.  I need it to use IP for transport.  I guess
it would sort of be like X but for MS-windows.

Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
