If you are looking at a data fork called "foo", you can get access to
the resource fork by opening the file called "foo.#rsrc#".
Unfortunately, this resource fork does not contain the finder
information for the file.  I reported this as a bug during the beta
period, but for whatever reason, NeXT chose not to address it.

To the best of my knowledge, NAG ships the only F90 compiler
for the NeXT (not that there are many F90 compilers on any
platform yet...).

I think you can e-mail them at "infodesk@nag.co.uk".
Or you could phone them up: (708) 971-2337

I have no link whatsoever with NAG.

Actually, if you read it carefully it says "Discourage Public Servers."  This
turns off the switches in Preferences, but you can still do a dwrite to turn
it on (taking effect after you log out and back in again).  If the SysAdmin
at your site puts in a loginhook that does a dwrite System PublicWindowServer
OFF and a dwrite System PublicSoundServer OFF, THEN the public servers are
pretty much disabled.  The sound one definitely is, and if anyone can
guarantee that no user can write a program that turns on the Public Window
Server, then the PWS is disabled too.

(make sure you su $1 dwrite... else you'll be doing it to root's defaults
database since login hooks run as root)

Subject: Cf. Upgrade 3.0 with new system
Organization: Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1992 12:52:52 GMT

I'm a little puzzled by a comparison between what I see on my upgraded  
68040 cube with the upgraded software for 3.0 installed from CDROM  
versus an out of the box new turbo NeXTStation.

I was checking a brand new one out last night and see lots of different  
services for the Librarian, Address Books and Notebooks in the  
~/Library and /NextLibrary locations.  These things don't show up on my  
upgraded system (To my knowledge, I did not elect to omit them).  How  
do I get these new features on my upgraded system.

One minor drawback to the new features, I couldn't seem to get them to  
work very well!

Also, the system installed on the 250 mbyte hard drive delivered has no  
development tools.  I'm getting a 1.2 Gbyte SCSI to use for a  
classroom.  I'll NFS mount it for them and intend to put the  
development software on it.  What is the best arrangement to make this  
seem seamless and easy to manage.  I don't want to have to mess with  
changing Makefiles, etc.

Me, too. He was talking about two separate boxes. One that plugs into the DSP
port, "but that is not for ISDN", and another that plugs into both RS432 ports.
This was allegedly because ISDN base access offers two separate channels,
so you have one port per channel. I told the guy I considered this a
horrible solution since it will block almost all of my communications IFs.
He said it wasn't a problem since it was enough to have one NeXT on the net
hooked up to ISDN/POTS. This could then be used by every NeXT on the network.
(Very helpful especially for standalone NeXTs :-(
So could you anyone who has the Hayes ISDN Extender for NeXT running and hooked
up to ISDN and/or POTS comment on the following:
	How many and which plugs does it have on the NeXT side?
	How many and which plugs does it have on the line (wall) side?
	Can ISDN and POTS be concurrently accessed?
	How high is the system load when transferring stuff over ISDN/POTS
	How fast is the POTS modem stuff?
	Is Modem / Fax / Answering possible with ISDN/POTS?
	Is the DSP available when the ISDN Extender is hooked up
		/ running / transferring data
	Why did the guy from NeXT talk such strange stuff, or,
	Why did I get him so terribly wrong?

Thanks in advance and sorry for the confusion.

For people who are not a standalone site (ie, if your NeXT is on the

not a good idea to do if your NeXT is on the internet.  It is no problem to

Well, for sometime now I've been lusting after HSD's color scanner, but haven't  
been able to find the $2K to buy it.  Most Mac scanners, even the ones that are  
supposedly better than the HSD one (the HP and the UMAX come to mind) were in  
the $1400 range.  

After going to Seybold and playing with Appsoft Image, I know that I really  
want to get a scanner.  Microtek just announced a new low cost color scanner  
(600 dpi, three pass, kind-a-slow) for under $1K!  In this week's MacWeek there  
is an add from "Hardware That Fits" that advertises the new MicroTek Scanmaker  
II Scanner for only $949!  

Does anyone know of a driver for this scanner on the NeXT? 

Barring that, does anyone know if Appsoft Image will be able to directly  
control a scanner, ala PhotoShop's drop in filters for scanners?  This would  
really open up third party scanners to the NeXT. Of course I forgot to ask  
anyone from Appsoft at Seybold...

Given that I'm willing to buy an Ethernet card for the Mac, is there a

questions that don't appear to be covered in the "documentation".

Apparently the Demo needs to connect to a Sysbase server and use a  
database named "pubs".  This is implied to come with the system with a  
limited use license.  I can't locate anything like this anywhere.  I've  
pawed through the CDROM and back through 2.x stuff, but no luck.

whence do I get this server and database?  How do I start it, etc.?
