	This is not true. I run a GVP Series I controller with updated roms
installed. Does a damned good job, doubles the speed of the controller. I
run WB 2.05 without any problems. I don't know what version ROMS I have, but
I'm sure they are less than 4.0. They were purchased in late 1990 from memory
(when the updated roms and Series II controllers first appeared).

I'd be interested in seeing someone write up a comparison of this new TPTCron
and CyberCron v1.5 (of which I'm the author).  A couple of the ARexx commands
that got added after v1.3, such as EVENT_NEXT_EXEC, were added after someone
said they liked the way TPTCron could tell you exactly when an event would
next execute.

Does TPTCron support things like CyberCron's job queues or sending mail?

I'd really like to see CyberCron be the best cron available for the Amiga...

simply set up an entry like this in it's sys-file:

I have a feeling this is something simple, but I've read the docs ten times,
to no avail....

Having just set up my newsfeed, I have been testing out various newsreaders,
and have found Arn to be the most suited for my needs.  However, I'm unable
to get it to work properly.  

Rnews runs fine - I have articles stored in their respective directories in
UUNEWS:, each with a .next file.  Arnmaster appears to run fine, but doesn't
create any database files anywhere.  Is it supposed to, or am I
misunderstanding how this works?

Basically what happens is I start up Arn, and one of two things happens.
Most of the time Arn displays all newsgroups containing unread articles -
displaying 0 new, x unread, and x total.  Sometimes (after polling) it'll
display xx new, yy unread, yy total.  I select a group, Arn tells me it's
creating a database, spins the HD for a minute or so, and then pops back
with an "empty newsgroup" prompt, even when it says there are new articles.

If someone could help me out with this, I'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks!

Tony

Hello Netters, :-)

	A while back there was someone who said that they had a
GETTY which they slightly modified to work with the SupraFax
modems.  Something was mentioned about having added to getty the
ability to recognize the OK result after the modem is initialized.
I tried sending E-Mail to him but mail bounced.  Now I have lost
the E-mail address of this idividual.  If anyone has this Getty or
knows where I can get it could you please send it to me?  

	The Fax Getty's I have seems to want to initialize the modem
endlesly when I issue the -F command.  I can even see it doing so
by looking at the modem lights.  If I put an -x for getty you can
see getty trying to constantly try and initialize the modem.  This
prevents people from logging on to my system and Getty won't even
recognize a Fax call for that matter because it hangs up to soon
due to it initilizing.  

	Any help would be appreciated.  GPFax version 2.2 patches
are soon to be released and is promised with Getty support so I
would like to have Getty ready by the time it shows up.  Thanks and
take care.

Carlos

There is!!!

The server is called `betty'.  Right now, there is only one

are considering installing my scripts to offer the same service.

betty along with the size of their listing and the date of the

send me a message at "betty-request@mirkwood.cam.org".

No site is too small for betty.  I'll take anyone who wants to

  It was percy.rain.com that was returning the mail.  I changed the name to
just "cryo.rain.com" (I used to have it banged to them, all the way from my
feed to them), and it still bounced at Percy.  BMS timed out, I will try

  So he is up again?  I just did not want to waste traffic with an excessive
amount of retries to a site that wasn't there.  Thanks!

	I have been able to easily get email into a newsgroup. In the Alias
file which is in the libs directory, add a line like this:


email_addres: "|postnews -R s:newsgroup_header"



	newsgrou_header is a file that contains things like:

Newsgroups: newsgroup_name
Distribution: local

	such as:

Newsgroups: mail.america
Distribution: xamiga


	Now how do I get a newsgroup routd to email? I know how to write 
a program that does t, but then it will only work with my computer as
far as I know, based on how I set it up.

Try Tower.Demon.Co.Uk as it's going to be localish to you. I have 250MB
available for request so I'm sure you could find something! :-)

 `bms register tower.demon.co.uk retpath  spark.inet-uk.co.uk alias tower'

It would propably work with very little modification. When I compile it, I
don't set the NNTP_ABLE flag. I have no way of testing this, as I haven't
got AS225 or easy access to an NNTP server. (I did the original port, in
case anyone is wondering).

  Has cryo.rain.com shut down?  I have bounces of mail to them, one two
trying the full bang path to them, and one trying just "cryo.rain.com".
That is the BMS site that had the AB20 and the Fred Fish CD-ROM online.
Does anybody have the file "eprommer.lzh" off of AB20, that tells how
to build an Eprom burner for an Amiga?  That's what I wanted, and that's
how I found out they were down.  Thanks!
