ctivity.
ystem.
Careful there.  You guys are mixing up disk cache (which OS/2
keeps in memory) and the SWAPPER.DAT file (where OS/2 keeps
pageframes currently not needed).
Performance can be improved by putting the swap file "in the
most used partition on the least used disk".  If you have a very
large disk with many different partitions, there will be no
advantage to moving the swap file to it's own partition; it's
probably best to keep it in the same partiton with the OS/2
system.  However, there will be small improvement by making the
initial size of the swap file as large as it will be during
normal system operation.  Check the size of the "swapper.dat"
file occasionally, and then change the SWAPPPATH parameters to
make the initial size that large.
If you have more than one hard disk, then putting the swap file
on the least used disk will improve performance.

assistant: o,
I finally figured that one out.   My BBS was closing the COM port which
I guess killed the handle or made the handle useless or invalid to CeXYZ/2.
I have since solved the problem.  Hopefully I'll remember this for next
time!  :-)

I run WildCat! 4.2 Multiline 10 under OS/2 Warp version 3 with FrontDoor 2.12
SW ( registered ) and FrontDoor 2.02 N.C. with InterEcho 1.19 as my mail
processor.
I'm looking to import some additional UseNet newsgroups into the BBS without
further expenditure on either expensive UUCP feeds or costly MSI software (
wcGATE ). I would like to use my SMTP connection to receive USENet and then
use a mail processor ( such as Watergate ) to import the the newsgroups into
*.msg folders before using InterEcho to toss the *.msg to WildCat! ( well,
that's the way that I see it anyhow ). I am wondering if anyone else has
arrived at a solution for this ... ?
I must admit that I'm more interested in information on the establishing the
PPP connection and receiving of Usenet newsgroups via DOS programs than the
actual mail processing but any advice will be gratefully received ...
Until Next Now ....
Nigel.
