- I did about two years ago, but the stuff has an IBM, SUN, and EDS
- copyright on it. If anyone would like to get us permission from all
- three to distribute the modified versions, we might include them
- in MultiNet. Alternatively, I'd be happy to have them include
- my changes in their copies.
-
- The changes were mainly replacing getuid() with a routine
- that reads the NFS.CONFIGURATION file to get your UID and
- getpwuid() with a routine which returns your VMS username.
-
- The programs have apparently evolved quite a bit over the
- last two years, so I doubt my changes would be of any use with the
- current versions.
