try a horizontal split screen instead. i have used that technique with some
success. i remember having multiple phone sessions ten years ago with eight
or nine screen splits with different conversations in each one.

Last night, and again today, when attempting to reply to an e-mail, after
about 10 lines everything froze up, no keys worked. I rebooted and my modem
would not dial. I turned the computer on and off and it works again. I had
sent one e-mail before replying to any. Has this happened to anyone else?
If not, it is related to our switching hardware and software (a later version
of 4DOS as an operating system, and an expanded memory card and shrom
software). Any ideas how to attack this problem? It may have something to
do with shelling via the shrom program. I am not shelled now and will check
e-mail replying again and report back if it still does not work.

Apparently I was not disconnected, which is why rebooting did not work.
The e-mail worked fine now without the shell program involved.

I logged in to grex just now without using the shell program and had
the same problem with e-mail freezing up (while I was replying to
a webmaster froma website using lynx). This was the second e-mail I
sent, the first worked okay.
Actually, the first three worked okay, and they were all replies.

I've been told some e's sent me have been bounced back. Is it in the settings
or a glitch?

Grex cannot be reached from Michnet. Party has been dead since about 07:30,
which is usually a good sign that the net link is down. But there still
seem to be some users telnetted in from far away places. ???

For whatever it may be worth, here is a traceroute from Michigan State:

re #157 msen comes in via a different path than michnet
re #158 qual.net is what became of cic.net+iagnet.net+cyberdrive.net+
greatplains.net
there was an as seg issue between some hops in the network, i've
stoped the router at hop #6 so it won't go on until it becomes fixed.

I am no longer having any problems with the screen freezing up while
sending e-mail, and I have not changed anything at this end.

Actually, once in a whiile I cannot get past a certain spot in a line
but I can go to the next line and resume typings.
I have noticed that when using MAIL, I can type n to get the next message,
except when I know I have just one more message left, and type n, it tells
me EOF, and I have to do h for a list of headers and then enteer the message
number in order to read it. Am I doing something wrong or is it mail?

The getting to a certain point in the line and then having to do a hard
return to continue typing usually means that you've been forgetting to
press Return at the end of every line and that you've filled up your
buffer. Happens to me all the time. ;)

telnetted in using grex.org and had sopme severe weirdness,
including but not limited to... password echo, incomplete prompts
which could be 'completed' pressing the space bar for each
additional character i wanted to display.
grex.cyb was all that appeared automagically, the rest ofthe
csh prompt came a chaaracter at a time, per space-bar-hit, until the %
arrived.. then typing got nowhere but several returns later, the command
finally echoed...and failed....
killed the connection, reconeected to cyberspace.org and things
were fine. <wtf?>
re: previous problem... ok, it's an 80 col world, yippieyippiefsck!
the system problem is : why won't grex read&conform to the stty settings?
stty -a give all the correct settings.. adn grex ignores them
magnificently!

My impression is that the .plan change happened to quite a few people.

I tried to connect to www.cyberspace.org with my lynx and was unable to
access. I tried pinging cyberspace.org and it worked, so I used
cyberspace.org in my browser and it worked. Missing A record?

Hmm... All Grex's name servers seem to be responding correctly to queries
for both the grex.org and cyberspace.org domains right now.
TS's problem doesn't look at all DNS related. The name server is going from
the same zone file for both domains, so they are identical. I'm guessing it
was some other intermittant problem, and that it working with one hostname
and not the other was coincidental.

If your .plan is owned by group "cfadmg" then that is because someone
(presumably you) editted it via Backtalk. Nobody is in group "cfadmg"
except the Backtalk program itself, and Backtalk only lets people edit
files if they have logged in as the owners. The same thing happens with
your conference participation files. It is all a bit odd, but has to be
done to be compatible with Picospan. You are welcome, of course, to
change to permissions/group on your .plan back to anything you like, but
I can't see why you'd want to do so. If you edit it again with
Backtalk, Backtalk will reset the permissions it needs (it has extremely
limited root access to enable it to get access to participation files
created by Picospan by putting them into the cfadmg group).

Was grex rebooted this afternoon? I haven't seen anything in the MOTD
explaining why it was down.

Marcus changed some settings that makes us more resistant to certain
denial-of-service attacks. What you saw there might have crashed us before.
