I've spent a large part of today trying to get the demo version of AmiTCPIP v4.0. I have transferred it from two different FTP sites, and dounloaded it from CIS. All of the archives abort with error mesages about corrupted files when extracted. When I use the "view" option of LHarc or LZ, the files list, although some report "0" for a beginning size, with some larger number reported for the compressed size. All of the extraction attempts abort with the second file (the first is an icon file) which is one of the "0" sized files. Has anyone else had this problem? Or gotten it to extract? Rob Hays

Only a thought: Did you try *LHA* (not LHarc or LZ)? You will find LHA138.run somewhere here in the libraries. Joachim Sondermann-Bieker on Amiga AutoPilot 1.77 from Cologne, Germany

<Blush!> I _thought_ LHArc was just another name for LHA. I have never had LZ refuse to unpack a .lha file. I tried LHArc1.20 which also aborted. After downloading LHA138, it did indeed unpack the file successfully. Thanks for your help. (Now if I can only get AMITCP, AMosaic, my 3000 and the rest of the world to talk to one another…;-} ) Rob Hays

Rob, To get AMITCP and AMosaic to run you need to have Magic User Interface installed. It's MUI.LHA here in AmigaUser but i don't remember witch lib. As for setting up AMITCP, I'm at a loss as well. I've tried, and tried, but to no avail. Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appriciated. —Stephen— ===Cruisin' on Auto Pilot 1.77–From Kansas to OZ===

Rob, The guide file for LZX, the brand new archiver with it own format has a some nice historical info on archivers. Lharc supports only the lh1 (.lzh) compression format, so it should not be able to expand .lha files as they usually use the lh5 method. Both LZ and LHA support both the lh1 and the lh5 schemes, so LZ should work for you. I would at least give LHA a try on the file anyway though. ._ _ _ INTERNET: mshea@math.arizona.edu | | |ichael _>hea COMPUSERVE: 76665,3360

Use the proper tool to decompress — LHA -sja
