Chris, I am looking around for 'noreq' but haven't found it yet. I believe that it is something that Matt Dillon wrote to prevent system requesters from popping up on the remote system when you are using the cliterm part of DNET. Unless the remote system is very nearby (in the same room), it is impossible to click on the gadgets. 🙂 The only entry needed in the mountlist is the one that describes NET:. DOC/DNET.DOC is in the DNET.ZOO file. At least it is in the one that I got. If you wish, I can try to E-Mail it to you. This evening I setup DNET and did a NETMOUNT net: fh0 fh0:, then assign wb: net:fh0, and THEN did a wb:c/e It took about 10 seconds to load and start TxEd ( baud set at 19.2k ) All of this typing was done on the remote system. I tryed 31.5k baud, but got data errors. –Claude

Claude, I don't think it works well at anything higher than 19.2K either, because I've gotten errors also. It's sure neat to see a program load from a hard disk across the room, though! It's giving my 1000 new life! Steve

Steve, Mine too. Now I'll have to get a larger HD for the 2500. 🙂 I will be getting a DSP card from ASDG soon. So that I can leave both the modem and the DNET system connected. –Claude

Claude, I've been using SCSIdos3.0 and the CLtd host/controller and have been sucessful "netting" thru the scsi system, Only problem is the bit-map changes and if you don't use diskchange before you access sometimes you go see the Guru. I would imagine using the serial port wouldn't have an affect on the bit-map chris

Chris, Using DNET seems to be the same as running from the CLI, so the system takes care of all. I found 'noreq' on ucbvax.berkeley this morning, so I u/l'ed it to CIS LIB 1. I stuck a minimal note to it. 🙂 (noreq.arc) –Claude

Claude, Thanks I'll pick up noreq as soon as its merged. BTW where are the docs? chris

Chris, There were/are no docs with 'noreq', just the one that I thru together. Run with no argument = disable requesters, run with any argument = enable requesters. –Claude

I'm not sure but I think I remember someone saying that the amiga's serial device had problems running faster than 19.2k baud. Michael St. Laurent

Mike, Not so…the Amiga serial port is able to keep up with MIDI speeds (30 some odd K baud) as long as it's programmed properly. Don

O.K. Looks like I heard wrong! <grin> Michael St. Laurent
