I am unable to connect via compuserve. I get a login prompt, but that is
quickly dropped with a message that the connection was closed by the host.
I am now connected via a double telnet via Michnet.

Re resp:3:
Grex actually has three MOTD files - the one with the ICNET message,
the one with the birthday announcments, and the one with everything
else. I think Backtalk doesn't do the ICNET one, which is kind of
OK, since we no longer use ICNET's connection. Other than this, and
formatting, they should always be the same.

Grex ran out of space on the "/a" partition at 3:54am today. An
idiot was FTPing an entire OS here (beos) but ran out of Grex before
it ran out of beos to FTP. Removed it.

Hey, the kids encourage grex work--or they can't get on maybe.

I've been unable to dial in for the last couple of hours; the modem connects,
but then I don't get any text. I'm telnetted in now.

I just dialed in okay, shortly before you telnetted in.

There is apparently one evil modem that is doing that "connect but no message"
bit.

Request to all: To help keep track of what response goes with which
msg., please try to remember to put the original msg. # in your
response. Some of these confs. have a rapid turnover, which means it's
possible to come into a conf and read msgs. that have no apparent
meaning, unless you know which msg. was the origin.
Those that are already doing this, it's appreciated.

At least it was well meant. I always read confs from the beginning and have
not found it a problem to figure out what was being referred to.

Got busy signals ~1 hour ago. Then could only get through on a too-noisy-
to-use line. (Dialed elsewhere & telnetted some, so probably not my stuff
or line.) I'm in on a good dial-in now.

Re. 17: Since not everybody reads all confs., this seemed like the logical
course of action. If you have a viable alternative that accomplishes the same
thing, let me know.

(But that doesn't explain why you put it in multiple items in the *same*
conference.)

Re. 22: Wrong wording on my part. I should have said "item," though my
previous statement still applies.

I think just about everyone reads the first couple of items.

There is a problem with sz; it appears to fail on longer files due
to some problem with flow control. It starts dying at about 5K,
and will transmit files up to about 7k but not 10k.

Am having trouble "forgetting" items in Backtalk. (I'm using Pistachio,
and of course am registered.) I just checked a quite a list of Agora
items to forget, and when I clicked the "Forget selected items" button
only about half of the items ended up being forgotten. I have tried
re-forgetting the remaining items several times with no effect.
Suggestions?

Hmm, I don't use backtalk a lot, but you might want to query srw and janc -
the designers I believe.

I have a problem that may or may not be related to jshafer's - I use picospan,
and every once in a while it will forget that I've forgotten an item. THat
is, it'll show me the item again as new, even though I've forgotten it.

Mic: I thought of mailing janc about it, but I thought I'd mention it here in
case anyone else was having trouble...

All I've been getting on my screen is gibberish when I've been dialing in the
last few days. I'm not sure this is getting through.
