assistant: Hallo,
kennt jemand einen FTP-CLIENT den ich unter UNIX per Kommando-
Zeile steuern kann?
Ich moechte dem Programm schon beim Aufruf ALLE ausfuehrbaren
Optionen mitgeben, so das gar nicht in die shell von ftp
gewechselt werden muss und sich der Client somit auch selbst
beendet.
Zur Not ist mir auch mit einem DOS/WIN-CLIENT geholfen...
Das ganze soll auf einer SIEMENS-NIXDORF RM600 3/512 R400

Vielen Dank fuer eure Hilfe...

Write your reply.

assistant: Hello Bob,
Not something that is evident to a new commer but not too difficult.  By
typing cd /bob you are saying you want to change to a directory called bob
in your root directory and not the directory bob in home.
To get in to the bob directory type;
           cd /home/bob         (The complete path)
                or if in the /home directory.
           cd bob
'cd /' means change to the root directory so 'cd /bob' means change to
directory bob in the root directory.
Regards,
Bob Turner

Hardly stunning.  Chances are, SCO hopes that by giving people a taste of SCO
early on, they will be able to get a better grip on a market niche that is
*quickly* slipping away to things like FreeBSD (and friends) and Linux on the
PD
front and BSDi on the commercial front.  Definitely a good move on SCO's
part,
but I have a feeling that it is probably too late.

assistant: I'm playing right now with a version of MINIX, a UNIX-like teaching tool
that Andy Tanenbaum wrote for his OS design classes.
I currently have a MINIX box up with several users, serving mail, FTP, and
web pages, on a 286-12 with 2 megs of RAM and 100 megs of Disk. MINIX can
also install on as little as an XT with 2 360K floppies - it was meant as a
teching tool for college students, so the overhead costs for the students
had to be low.
It's got it's shortcomings, but still does a hell of a lot. The newest
version is 2.00.
You can buy a textbook with MINIX on disk, or check out
http://minix1.hampshire.edu for more information. There's even a
comp.os.minix newsgroup on the internet.

I have a problem with the lprint (Local print) program in SCO OpenServer 5.
When I issue the lprint program to print to a printer attached to my
terminal, I get two characters (0x80 and 0xFF) appended to the end of my
printout. I have tested cat'ing a plain file with the escape sequences for
Printer On and Printer Off, so it is not a fault with my terminal. I would
like to get rid of those two characters, but I cannot find out where they
come from (except that it is the lprint program that generates them).
Does any of you have some knowledge of this?
