Summary: Am I detecting intruders?
Organization: Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Dear Net-Folks --

Two questions from a relative newcomer to Usenet:

1) Is there a FAQ file (s?) for this group? How do I get my hot little hands on
        it?

2) A user has a Mac IIfx (S7.01 w/ Tuner): says that periodically starts up
        his machine in the mornings to find that the window for his HD is viewed
        "by icon" instead of "by name", and that the window has re-positioned 
        on the screen. He's afraid this may be indicative of someone getting
        into his office at night and using his Mac. Are these symptoms common
        to his setup, or might he be receiving unexpected nocturnal visitors?

Thanks so much for any help (post or e-mail).

Organization: Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 1992 06:28:45 GMT


One more possible clue:
the 800k images I have (that work fine with diskcopy 4.2) are
   filetype    dlmg  (not 'dimg', my first post was a typo)
 and creator   dCpy

The 1.4 meg images I have (that are rejected by diskcopy as requiring
too much memory, although I've got and assigned 5 megs to the program
and it does say it has that much free space)  also shows the same
filetype.  Any chance it should be different for these larger images?

I got Roger Bates's diskduplicator+  and it won't even recognize
the 1.4-meg images.

Subject: StyleWriter Problems
Organization: BYU

We have two Stylewriters in a student lab and they are having
problems. They are connected to the printer ports on a couple of macII
ci's running 6.0.7, True Type init, and Stylewriter driver 7.2.2,
which are connected to a Novell network where all the apps are kept.
The system folder is kept on a RAMdisk+ RAM disk after startup. The
students don't have write rights to the network.

The problem is that the StyleWriters often stop partway down the page
and then start printing a different page. Or print everything down
one side in a column, and sometimes some of the fonts don't work.

The Stylewriters are getting used for about 50-200 pages per day,
depending on how many classes have papers due. (I know this is too
much but they never asked me to recommend a printer just a machine,
oh well, at least we got the ci's.)

Are there any ideas as to how to get the StyleWriters to print more
reliably?

I just purchased a PowerBook 160 4/80 and have been "loading" it up
with software.  I've run into a problem after installing Suitcase
2.1.2 which is the System 7.1 compatible version.  The system attempts
to boot, but the hard disk icon never gets mounted on the desktop.
Anyone else seen a similar problem?  I know that there has been some
recent postings about Suitcase, but I thought that I would bypass that
problem by having the most current version of Suitcase.

Some older applications - including NCSA Telnet, I believe - look for
MacTCP in the system folder to do host name resolution.  MacTCP puts
MacTCP DNR in the system folder to satisfy these applications.  It is
necessary for some apps - don't delete it.

it just closes the app. These fonts are all in the font folder (futura

Here's a rundown of the new Macs due out on Febuary 15, 1993,
according to stuff I read in a recent MacLeak -- er, MacWeek.
Remember that all this is only rampant rumor subject to my typoes,
and may bear no semblance whatsoever to reality.

The Quadra 700, Mac IIsi, and Mac LC II will be removed from the
lineup.  In their place will come the Centris 610, Centris 650, Quadra
800, Mac LC III, and Color Classic.

+ Macintosh Centris 610: 20MHz stripped-down 68040 (no on-chip math
coprocessor, but it'll still perform 70% better than a 33MHz 030
machine), "Fat LC" case, one expansion slot that will fit either a
NuBus card or an 040 Processor Direct card, 4Mb RAM permanently on the
motherboard, two SIMM slots, up to 16-bit color on a 16" display or
8-bit color on a two-page display.

+ Macintosh Centris 650: 25MHz 68040 (same as Quadra 700), IIvx case,
one 040 Processor Direct slot, two NuBus slots (not 3 like the IIvx),
4Mb RAM permanently on the motherboard, four SIMM slots, built-in
Ethernet, same display capabilities as the Centris 610.  There will be
an upgrade available for IIvx owners to this machine.

+ Macintosh Quadra 800: 33MHz 68040, one 040 Processor Direct slot, 3
NuBus slots, built-in Ethernet, up to 16-bit color on a 16" display or
8-bit color on a 21" display.  Not as expandable as a Quadra 950, but
offers comparable performance.

+ Macintosh LC III: Identical to the LC and LC II except for a 25MHz
68030 and a 32-bit data path.

+ Color Classic: a 16MHz Classic II with color.

Apple wants to move its product line up to the 040 to stay competitive
with 486 machines, and to handle additions such as QuickTime,
QuickDraw GX, and OCE (Open Collaboration Environment).

Summary: I've read the faq, but still have questions.
Organization: University of Colorado, Boulder
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1992 21:30:27 GMT

I would like to use my mac to telnet to a unix host at my university.  I am
currently using terminal software, but find it inadequate compared to the kinds
of things I could be doing with telnet.  (Direct ftp, background downloading,
direct newsreaders, etc.)

I understand that I need mactcp, NCSA Telnet,  and some other tools, but what 
I don't know is whether or not the unix host has the required hardware and 
software, or what that would be.  

What questions do I ask the system administrators in order to determine
whether or not I can do this?  (They don't respond to terms like 'telnet')

Would there have to be a separate phone number?

When I dial in I get the UCB ISN Network.  Is ISN an important term here, or
just a generic name for 'integrated servies network' or something?  I then
type the name of a smaller of some sort of sub network where I get a prompt
Local>.  At that point I type 'C UCSU' (UCSU is the Ultrix box.) whereupon
I type my name and password.

I'm clueless, and the administrators seem to be that way too.

I believe the problem here is that the current versions of Eudora are NOT
being shipped with MacTCP. When Eudora was being maintained by UIUC, the
University had a MacTCP distribution license so the Eudora package included
MacTCP. Now that Eudora is being developed/distributed by Qualcomm, MacTCP
is no longer included, and given the rumors of the cost of MacTCP
distribution licenses, I would be surprised if Qualcomm were interested in
obtaining such a license just so the free Eudora package could include
MacTCP.

   In the November 16th issue of "Open Systems Today", there is a review
of SLIP products for Macintosh. It talks about MacSLIP, VersaTilities 
(Versaterm SLIP without Versaterm), and NCSA/BYU Telnet. It also has
some benchmarks, and talks about Apple's Powerbook Tuner, etc....
   In a nutshell, VersaTilities and MacSLIP performance is pretty much
the same. With V.32 & V.42bis, an MTU of 1500, CSLIP, and 
the DTE latched at 38400, I saw about
3Kbytes/sec for FTP transfers of text files (most compression) down to
.9Kbytes/sec for compressed tar files (least compression). That's with
a 4Mbyte Powerbook 170, the Powerbook Tuner, and a Telebit QBlazer modem. 
Without the Tuner, the
Powerbook locks up eventually. I don't know where Apple keeps the latest
Tuner, but you can anonymous FTP the one I used as
/published/open-systems-today/tuner.sit.hqx  from ftp.uu.net. 
  To get the benchmark numbers, I telnet'ed out to a Sun and then 
ftp'ed back to the Powerbook so I could use the SunOS ftp program to
measure the file transfer time (I don't trust the numbers given by
the Macintosh ftp programs).
   I also looked at the latest hack of NCSA/BYU telnet since the SLIP
in NCSA Telnet 2.5 doesn't work. I assume that NCSA Telnet 2.6 will fix
SLIP. You can get the hacked version from bert.cs.byu.edu as 
/NCSA_Telnet/ThinkC/Telnet2.5B.sit.hqx  . It doesn't support CSLIP.
   The features of MacSLIP and VersaTilities vary. I think Steve Dorner's
previous post was pretty much on the mark, but you can also pick up
my review....

Ditto here, except this time it's personal.

Amanda, you promised me MacTCP v1.1.1 as soon as you got it from Apple
(I own TCP/Connect II), but you never delivered.  In fact you stopped
replying to my e-mail altogether.  I eventually got the new version
from Synergy...how come they can get it from Apple but InterCon can't?

Maybe if InterCon spent a little more time helping their users and a
little less time whining at Apple we'd get somewhere.  But you already
have MY money don't you?

No. An Apple employee recently stated (either here or in
comp.unix.aux) that the same master is used for both MacOS & A/UX
MacX (i.e. they are identical). HOWEVER MacTCP (used as the
communications protocol for MacX) is different between the MacOS and
A/UX.

eXodus by White Pine Software also runs under the MacOS, I don't know
about it's A/UX compatibility however.
