Maybe "ambiguous" isn't the best description, but "frequently counterintuitive
and often being unable to successfully quote an arbitrary string" is a bit of
a mouthful. I'm a pretty dedicated shell fan, and do a bunch of stuff in it,
but when I have to start doing stuff like:

	yadda yadda | blah `awk '/'"$1"'/ {"stuff with " and $"}'` | fooble |
		bloops bletch `blah `oh-oh, nested stuff doesn't work``...

I typically replace it with:

	yadda yadda | VAR=val... tcl 'a bunch of stuff with no weird shit'

TCL has very simple and unambiguous syntax, with few surprises and strings
are "born quoted". ksh is better than sh, but I can't depend on ksh being
available. I can *install* TCL anywhere.

> b) but both eksh and wksh allow linking stuff, where's the advantage?

I'm not familiar with the wksh/eksh API, but if it's easier to use than
TCL's I'd be very much surprised.

Barely. I have ksh available and I still use csh interactively, even though
csh really sucks for scripts. I'd really like to see rc become more standard.
It seems to resolve most of the problems with sh/ksh.

Well, TCL is more widely available, and doesn't require a UNIX system under
it (I use it on my Amiga). That translates to a LOT more portability.

TK pretty much does, but the hairy parts of the app remain consistent.

Technical Specs:    Compaq 386/25 w 387, 3COM Etherlink II, thicknet
                    Interactive Unix 3.0 V3.2.2

                    and NFS.


Problem Statement:  At some interval after boot the Interactive system will 
refuse telnet connections.  

Related Clues:      The VAX does not respond to the the command 
"rpcinfo -p vaxname".  An error 126 is returned from rpcinfo.

    The Interactive system eventually runs out of queues, no matter how 
large the NQUEUE system parameter is set. 

    Multiple (20, 30 or more) copies of portmap will be running  on the 
Interactive system before the problem manifests.  The start time for the 
portmaps are shortly (within 2 minutes) after a telnet from the VAX to the 
Interactive UNIX systems.

Actually, there is something even better - WorkMan, which in addition to the
standard features of xcdplayer has the ability to store databases with track
and album titles, playlists, dont-play and multitrack piece information for
each CD.  It claims to run under Solaris 2.0, which is SVR4-based, so all (!-)
you need to do to make this run on a non-Solaris SVR4 machine is get the XView
3.0 libraries and probably modify some of the low-level CD-ROM ioctls.

WorkMan 2.1 beta was posted to alt.sources recently, and there are a few FTP
sites where you can pick it up - use archie to find the latest.

Get a faster file system and your tape drive will stream!
Usually whether a tape drive streams or not depends heavily on the
file system that feeds data to the drive.   If the file system
has high IO throughput, most likely your tape drive will stream.
Of course a faster tape drive helps, e.g. 525MB streamer always
streams.   I assume Esix 3.2D use ATT 1K/2K file system, which
is known to be slow.

The following may help, try it:

find . -print | cpio -ocBvdum | dd bs=5k >/dev/rmt/c0s0

"cpio" or "tar" alone can not obtain the highest possible IO throughput
because they read and write sequentially and synchronously. By coupling 
"cpio" with "dd", the above command effectively runs asynchronous
IO operations.   You can do the same thing for tar.   It does improve
the IO throughput, but not a lot.

There is a company, HJ Technology, that has a "cpio" compatible command
which runs asynchronous processes to stream your tape..  You can reach
them at (818)447-9959.   I tried it and it works great.   It streams
my tape drive, which I can not make to stream with the above cpio/dd command.
Their package costs around $100 and comes with other neat performance
enhancement utilities, e.g. ram disk, ...   Worth the price. 
Give it a try.

Archive has told us (me personally) that they qualified the 6250

I've never heard a drive vendor confirm it.

Organization: University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada

How do I route between an ethernet network and a slip network?

I've got an ISC 2.2.1 system with a slip link to the internet (class C
address) and my own ethernet at home.  How do I go about setting things up
so a host on the slip link is my name server?  And so I can be on one of
the machines on the ethernet cable, telnet some place and get it properly
routed through the ISC machine out the slip cable?

Also, I will still need it to use /etc/hosts to find the IP addresses of
machines on the ether as I will not always connected to the slip, and my
slip host won't be able to put those IP addresses in his database anyways.

Is ISC capable of this type of routing?

Hmmm. Assuming machine A's sys5r4 is from interactive.

You don't always need the source, it depends on your UNIX.  I seem to remember
from running SCO (a year or so ago) there was a patch to change the window
size -- and for ISC this was configureable in the Systems and Devices.
With SVR4 you can set this up in Config - so to answer your question, it
would depend on the version of UNIX you are running

  Obviously anyone who doesn't use ther system the way you do is very
foolish (or even "Veeeeeeeeeery foolish"), but you see my laptop doesn't
have a tape drive, nor is it likely to ever have such a thing. And I
still want UNIX because the keyboard gets messy when DOS make me throw
up. So I load up the UNIX system and backup only the files I change,
which usually fit very nicely on a handful of floppies. Heck, I can even
backup through a serial port when I'm near a larger machine. I just
can't install off a serial port.

  And my experience doing this has not included doing those huge
backups, because I just don't trash my files over the useful lifetime of
a system. Of course 40MB of UNIX stuff is probably enough, I don't need
X or even a C compiler.

  Dell took this half way when they allowed install over the net, but
until I can run net over the parallel port, or someone will support SCSI
over parallel in the install kernel, I still want floppy capability.

  Teribly foolish, I'm sure.

Someone on the net mentioned that archive changed heads in the 2150S a

It all depends on the individual situation. If it hadn't been for the tape
drive cost, I would have bought Dell UNIX. As it is, I bought a second-hand
copy of ESIX on floppies and am loading it on another machine as I read
net-news. If it were a client, I would definitely try to sell them on a
tape unit. But  me? I can multiplex just fine between reading net-news and
loading from floppies [or backing up], if it saves me several hundred dollars
that I don't have.

BTW -- a tape drive is on my shopping list, but not as high as ethernet cards
hard disks, RAM, a VGA monitor/card, and CD-ROM [in that approximate order].
Anyone with dirt-cheap used prices on stuff like the above that is compatible
with ESIX 4.0.3 or OS/2 2.0 please feel free to drop me a line.
