If you don't calm down, I'll split you three ways.

Thanks for the hint, Dan; reduces the guilt of killing processes. :)

How is it that the grex userID, shown between the (), can be more than 8
characters? Is that an edit that Backtalk allows?

The new Grex operating system allows account names to be up to 32 characters
long, apparently.

Since I don't recall that being announced before or after nextgrex was
implemented, I'm wondering if that is something we can arbitrarily enforce.
There is no reason that we can't keep the newuser mechanism from limiting IDs
to 8 characters, even if the O/S doesn't have that restriction. I'll take
this up in coop.

Doesn't seem like a problem to me... my usual PhPBB nickname is around 10
characters long.

Error writing to /tmp from lynx so I could not send mail until I changed the
path to my own directory (of the file I was writing). Disk quota exceeded.
What does this mean? I don't think I have anything else in /tmp but if so
how would I check this? (I sort of recall trying to download something
yesterday via tmp that was too large).

I searched /tmp for zip files and found the one that I got about 1MB of
yesterday and deleted it. How often is /tmp emptied? (My usual 'ISP' - WCC
- was dead for a while yesterday and I needed DOS xpdf in a hurry but there
is also the free access-4-free.com for such occasions).

I still have the via menu notice that says I have mail, and when I
check it with !pine, I'm told i have zero messages. I checked, as far
as I'm able, with my .login and .cfonse(?) files ,and i can't see ANYTHING
that would cause it. Any suggestions?

lowclass, try "!less /var/mail/lowclass" I think you'll find that the file
is not empty, but it's not something that pine will show you. If the file
is not empty, login reports that you have mail.

Grex keeps freezing up on me. And I think the participation
file got trashed.

Postpone the message at least.

Lynx google: Can't access start file (it did try google.com).
ssh or telnet: Temporary failure in name resolution.
And the only two mails I got were returned when grex could not send them due
to a problem in finding the host. (No spams in at least 12 hours).

I just wandered down to the pumpkin and power cycled the DSL box.
Looks like we're back on the 'net.

Sorry, but as of now we're still off the Net. I can't reach
www.cyberspace.org from either my wife's machine or my own.

Multi-minute lag. It is no longer optional to find a way to
throttle bandwitdh on the DSL link. It is essential.

Massive, crippling network lag. This is the worst I've seen it in a long
time. Are we ever going to get the DSL connection fixed?
