It's possible that it's a flow control problem (esp. if you are using
the FAQ cable which bypasses flow control for dialup security)...

You can avoid restarting your machine by using the Sharing Setup control
panel 
to start FileShare with a different machine name.  When the "Start" button
changes
to "Cancel", cancel the startup, change the machine name back, and then
start
FileShare.  It's a bit of a pain, but it beats restarting the machine or
logging
out and then logging back in.

	Yesterday I installed the telnet binary off of wuarchive, and
discovered I couldn't telnet into my machine.  I went back to the

discovered that inetd wasn't running, so I did an init q to get it

Summary: Copying a mac file to AU/X makes a file bigger than it is?

The FAQ is very specific about moving files from A/UX to mac but
doesn't mention what to do in the other direction.  I have a binary
file which I set to type bin and moved the icon over to AU/X. The
size reported by Get Info is the same for both files. I ran a file
compare on the mac side which reported that the files were the same.
If I do a ls on the AU/X file it lists the size as 401 bytes bigger
than Get Info shows. The file is actually a .Z and reports an error
(saying its not a compressed file) when I try to uncompress it. It
appears to have some junk at the beginning (dare I guess 401 bytes
worth?) 

Is there a way to avoid this? Is there a way to fix it after the fact?

I use kconfig(1m) to configure the kernel on my emergency file system
to explicitly use the emergency file system as the root & pipe device.
For example, if the emergency file system resides on a hard disk with SCSI
ID 2 and the emergency file system is slice 3, use (from A/UX Startup):

kconfig -n (2,0,3)/unix
ROOTDEV=0x1A03
PIPEDEV=0x1A03
<ctrl>d
launch -nv (2,0,3)/unix

The formula for the device number is 0x1800 + (SCSI-ID << 8) + slice, i.e.
(major << 8) + minor of the device files in /dev/dsk.

Please help!

I'm using a IIcx with MacTCP 1.1.1 and MacSLIP as client and a IIci as SLIP
server under a/ux 3.0. Both, client and server are connected to ZyXEL modems.
I've setup an account for a slipuser with /etc/slip as login shell. Once the
slipuser has dialed in slip automatically starts to run, establishing the slip
connection. The slip connection so far works fine. The problem is that slip
pretends to run although the line has been released on a disconnect. What has
to be done so that a/ux mentions a disconnect and kills the slip process? In
what way has the modem to be configured? By the way I'm using hardware handshake
cables.

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In /etc/NETADDRS, put the following on one line, separated by white space:
A device name (e.g. sl0), your inet address, your inet broadcast address,
and your netmask.

In /etc/HOSTNAME, put in the following on one line, separated by white
space:  Your host machine's name, your domain's fully qualified name.

Is this right?  I would have expected the CD300 (in low-speed mode) to
act like a CD150.  Does it not work at all, or just not in double-speed
mode?  If it doesn't work at all, are there any indications when a
version of A/UX that supports it will be available and at what cost?

I doubt it... HD Setup will create the two file systems and give both of
them a slice # of 0... Thus, there would be no way for A/UX Startup
to know which slice0 to use. That's the reason for keeping the backup
and something like Free User (slice 3) and then resetting it to Root
(slice 0) only when needed.

I've been trying to compile perl 4.035 with gcc 2.3.1 under A/UX 3.0 with no success.
Actually, it compiles fine (without any errors/warnings) with the hints mentioned in
the FAQ, but it consistently fails the dbm tests (5 and a few others).  Is dbm broken
somehow?  In all cases I've run Configure, selected aux and made the following changes to config.sh and Configure:

1) Removed -B/.... since gcc 2.3.1 apparently does not support (or like) it.
2) Removed __GNUC__ since I would get multiple "__GNUC__ redefined warnings."
3) Installed "fixed" dir.h from jagubox into /usr/include.
4) Used ld flags '-lm -lPW -ldbm -lbsd'.
5) 'Undef'ed d_voidsig.
6) Used the regular malloc (i.e. not the version that comes with perl).
7) Copied cppstdin into /usr/local/bin since the comp/cpp test was complaining about 
   not being able to find /usr/local/bin/cppstdin.

Are there any other necessary modifications to successfully compile perl and pass all tests?  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

On an unrelated topic, is AutoDoubler compatible with A/UX 3.0?  In other words, can
AutoDoubler be used on Mac partitions mounted under A/UX?

Yeah...you select "Restart" from the Finder's Special menu....

A/UX completely takes over the mac, to the point where it's really
no longer a mac. In fact, if you log into the Macintosh environment
via the console, you can then kill the sh process that owns the    c

Any sort of "unbooting" would take longer than a restart, if it would

OK, now I feel stupid.  I was informed that these were in pack format.
I put them in /usr/catman/u_man/man1 and set the group/permissions/owner

I had just about concluded that was the only way out.  I was just

I'm posting because I hope others may shed some light on this weirdness.

I've seen identical behavior, except in my case some of the beta clients
behaved better after su - and worse when run by a regular user under csh.
The fact that the problem suddenly appears may have something to do with
the presence/absence of the .gopherrc file; another user reported that he
noticed the relationship. I could not determine a strong correlation, but I
know that some versions of the client create the file whether it's needed
or not, while others only create it when you use bookmarks. So the problem
can conceivably show up only after days of normal behavior.


There were two problems in my case: one was that the ordinary user saw the
menu misaligned:
--> 1. Item a
2. Item b
3. Item c,
i.e. only the current item was indented properly. Root under sh saw a
properly aligned menu. After hours of eliminating differences between the
two environments I found that a variable EDITOR which was set to /usr/bin/vi
in users' .login and undefined for root made the difference. I got rid of
it and the problem disappeared. Why can that be???

Second problem was precisely the one that Dave describes. Curses seemed to
have trouble going into the cbreak mode after the gopher window was
initialized. However, I noticed that sending the gopher an interrupt, and
then answering "no" (don't quit) -- thus going back into the client -- made
the cursor keys start behaving properly. The only thing I could see in the
source is that in this sequence of events, the CURinit() function got
called twice compared to just once in normal circumstances. So I added a
second call to CURSetScreen(cur, initscr()) in CURinit(), just under the
one which was already there (this is all in the file CURcurses.c). Voila,
the client started working fine, for regular users and root alike.

Naturally, I still have no idea what is going on, and I'd like to know
because I hate such kludgey fixes!

Yeah, this is a major deficiency.  All of the various 386 Unixes I've used didn't have
this problem because you could always boot from the boot floppy, abort into a single-user
shell and do the restore from there.  It seems to me that if the A/UX on the CD-ROM let
you get a shell up, it would be just as easy.  No?

Another thing: if I do try the disaster boot-partition approach, what type should the
partition be, and how do I tell launch to use it?  I tried launch (0,0,n)/unix, where
"n" is the slice I put my partition in, but it seemed to ignore this.  Any ideas?

 Hi,

I am currently attempting to use the Fix Error Page software discussed in the

to succesfully fix the 44mb disk, i.e., it says it has done so.  However, if I
then eject the disk, re-insert it and run Fix Error Page again, it tells me
that the disk needs fixing again! Thus,

1) am I doing something wrong?
2) is this what is supposed to happen?
3) is this anything to do with the disk formatting software?
   (MicroTech R45 Formatter, ver 3.22)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
