10-21-101 10:52:50 <Walter> Hi again everyone!
10-21-101 10:52:51 <Rat-Salad> got your e-mail
10-21-101 10:55:51 *** Log Activated #warpdoctor (E:\COMM\GTIRC\#warpdoc.log)
10-21-101 10:56:09 <Walter> I just noted Sector seems to have gotten booted off.
10-21-101 10:56:09 <Rat-Salad> but I think maybe Sectors ISP is though :)
10-21-101 10:56:12 *** _Digi_ (~me@63.230.14.221) has joined #warpdoctor [10:56:12]
10-21-101 10:56:19 <Sector> Hi _Digi_
10-21-101 10:56:22 *** _Digi_ has left #warpdoctor [10:56:22]
10-21-101 10:56:24 <Walter> Hi _Digi_
10-21-101 10:56:27 * Sector is present and unacounted for
10-21-101 10:56:44 *** #warpdoctor Mode change: +oo Walter Sector  by Rat-Salad
10-21-101 10:56:48 <Sector> Actually it's not the ISP it's the $#W%$#%$#@*%#$#@%$*#@% phone lines and the screwed up shared pop
10-21-101 10:57:02 <Sector> Rat-Salad is seeing things again, Walter was allready oped...
10-21-101 10:57:17 <Rat-Salad> well $#W%$#%$#@*%#$#@%$*#@%
10-21-101 10:57:20 <Rat-Salad> hehe
10-21-101 10:57:44 <Walter> I hope you guys know what your talking about.
10-21-101 10:58:06 <Walter> R-S, may have *another* project for you.
10-21-101 10:58:16 <Rat-Salad> were encrypting so we don't offend others :)
10-21-101 10:58:58 <Sector> 160bit encryption
10-21-101 10:59:05 <Rat-Salad> gee Walter I haven't even started on the projects I've been assigned
10-21-101 10:59:13 <Rat-Salad> hehe
10-21-101 10:59:43 <Walter> R-S:  How hard would it be to set up a REXX (or something) program to give read permission to
10-21-101 11:00:07 <Walter> a list of USERID's to a directory in VOICE1?
10-21-101 11:00:20 <Rat-Salad> for what?
10-21-101 11:01:14 <Rat-Salad> REXX is really Abel's thing though.. I'm really not that great with it
10-21-101 11:01:32 <Walter> The VOICE BOD is considering the idea of setting up a VOICE1 directory available for ftp downloads, but restricted to VOICE members.
10-21-101 11:01:57 <Walter> So far the response has been positive.
10-21-101 11:02:46 <Sector> Looks that way
10-21-101 11:02:53 <Rat-Salad> and VOICE has how many members?
10-21-101 11:02:53 <Walter> That's why I said REXX or something.  It might even be better done using a Web Page.
10-21-101 11:03:09 <Walter> Around 280.
10-21-101 11:03:49 <Rat-Salad> it would definately be a job to do manually
10-21-101 11:05:49 <Walter> That it would.  :-)
10-21-101 11:06:35 <Rat-Salad> would take a day
10-21-101 11:06:56 <Walter> But also, as people join, you would also want the ability to add several.  Celeidh uses this approach, and does it of course from a web page.
10-21-101 11:08:16 <Rat-Salad> I don't know if there is another way to do it besides through the TCP/IP COnfiguration app.. if anyone knows how to do it through CLI it wouldn't be very tough to fix up a script to do it
10-21-101 11:08:18 <Walter> OK, thanks a lot!  I'll let you know when the BOD makes its decision, and when you can get started. :-)
10-21-101 11:08:55 <Sector> Got to give him time first
10-21-101 11:09:06 <Walter> Of course.
10-21-101 11:09:48 <Rat-Salad> and btw... a copy of the hobbes archive as of right before the server was moved to Michigan is on VOICE1
10-21-101 11:09:59 <Rat-Salad> in case you didn't know that
10-21-101 11:10:34 <Walter> I knew there was a copy on VOICE1, I didn't know how old it it was.
10-21-101 11:10:55 <Rat-Salad> hmm gee what did we ship it to MI?
10-21-101 11:11:01 <Rat-Salad> what=when
10-21-101 11:11:39 <Walter> Anyway, I suppose we should bring this meeting to order.
10-21-101 11:11:41 <Rat-Salad> March maybe
10-21-101 11:11:54 <Rat-Salad> good call
10-21-101 11:12:12 <Walter> This meeting of WarpDoctor is hereby called to order.
10-21-101 11:12:33 <Walter> Sector, I assume you are taking the log.
10-21-101 11:12:58 <Sector> Good assumption
10-21-101 11:13:18 <Rat-Salad> I'm logging as well
10-21-101 11:13:27 <Walter> That's makes 3.
10-21-101 11:13:40 <Walter> Because so am I.

10-21-101 11:14:17 <eTronik> hey there Rat-Salad :-) 
10-21-101 11:14:45 <eTronik> I guess I camo just in time for the meeting heh ?
10-21-101 11:14:49 <Walter> Hi eTronik.  This is a WarpDoctor meeting, but we're glad to have to you.
10-21-101 11:14:51 <Rat-Salad> we just started
10-21-101 11:15:38 <Rat-Salad> unfortunately I think the annoucement mistake is confusing people.. it needs to be fixed right away
10-21-101 11:15:43 <eTronik> Walter: I know ! I'm on the mailing list :-) please don't let me interrupt...
10-21-101 11:15:47 <Walter> My new agenda, when didn't get updated in time for posting calls for open dicussion.
10-21-101 11:17:25 <Walter> R-S:  If you would care to check, it has been changed.  My head, on the other hand, is a different matter.  Maybe I'm having the wrong portion of my anatomy operated on tomorrow. :-)
10-21-101 11:18:04 <Walter> My apologies, eTronik.
10-21-101 11:18:45 <Walter> Agenda Item 3:  Open Discussion

10-21-101 11:19:52 <Walter> R-S:  I've run across a number of tips and tricks lately, and I'm preparing to send them to you for posting.
10-21-101 11:19:56 <Walter> Hi Mark:
10-21-101 11:20:21 <MADecsSMP> hello Walter
10-21-101 11:21:17 <Rat-Salad> I wish I could find someone to help me with the site really... I have a project I gotta start tomorrow ($$$).. not sure how long thats going to take, but its important that it gets done
10-21-101 11:21:49 <eTronik> what kind of help ?
10-21-101 11:22:01 *** lalcan (lalcan@132.248.111.128) has joined #warpdoctor [11:22:01]
10-21-101 11:22:07 <lalcan> hi! 
10-21-101 11:23:38 <Rat-Salad> eTronik: I have a site template that I think is fairly easy to work with... the person wouldn't have to be a expert or anything.. pretty much just using the template and adding the body text and basic HTML to it
10-21-101 11:24:30 <eTronik> in static HTML ?
10-21-101 11:24:55 <Walter> R-S:  Here's one to start with.  If you have a registered full version of Styler/2, you MUST uninstall eStylerLite in eComStation before installing Styler/2, or the latter will not function correctly.  In my case, after Styler/2 was installed, Netscape would not load.  Unfortunately, uninstalling eStyleLite also disables several additional features in New Look and Feel.
10-21-101 11:24:55 <Rat-Salad> just plain ole HTML :)
10-21-101 11:24:56 <eTronik> adding what kind of body text ? content ?
10-21-101 11:25:22 <Rat-Salad> yes, content
10-21-101 11:25:42 <eTronik> this content already approved/edited ?
10-21-101 11:26:03 <eTronik> so its just a question of additional hands ?
10-21-101 11:26:51 <Rat-Salad> and the HTML would be very basic.. <br> <h3> <font face="Helvetica,Airal" size="2"> and that kinda fun stuff hehe
10-21-101 11:27:47 <eTronik> I really really really want to contribute, but I think I cannot deliver...
10-21-101 11:28:11 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: why not send me just a couple pages... to see what I can come up with... what you think ?
10-21-101 11:28:36 <Rat-Salad> sure, if your interested
10-21-101 11:28:49 <Walter> eTronik, any amount would be a help, believe me.

10-21-101 11:29:31 <Walter> Hi Wayfarer
10-21-101 11:29:35 <Wayfarer> Hello guys'n gals, what's up ?
10-21-101 11:29:53 <Rat-Salad> thats true, anything you can do would be great
10-21-101 11:30:12 <Rat-Salad> hello Wayfarer 
10-21-101 11:30:26 <Wayfarer> I'm new here, so help me out.  Is this the Warp discussion channel?
10-21-101 11:30:53 <MADecsSMP> one of them
10-21-101 11:30:54 <Rat-Salad> this is the channel of the Warp Doctor Clinic project
10-21-101 11:31:06 <Wayfarer> That's the one, thanks.
10-21-101 11:31:29 <Walter> We're having an Open Discussion.  Right now, Rat-Salad has been offered a new job, and is asking for additional help with the WarpDoctor web site.
10-21-101 11:32:07 <MADecsSMP> Rat-Salad = Jeremy Workman the Warp Doctor Web Master
10-21-101 11:32:38 <Rat-Salad> eTronik: mail me later and we can talk about it.. rs@fyrelizard.com
10-21-101 11:35:17 <Rat-Salad> I think we also need to encourage people to submit content
10-21-101 11:35:32 <MADecsSMP> I wish we could do something with PHP and automate a news ticker on the site.  That would get more folks to visit
10-21-101 11:35:52 <Rat-Salad> that would be nice
10-21-101 11:36:28 <Walter> Rat-Salad:  Did you catch the tip I typed earlier about Styler/2 and eCS?
10-21-101 11:37:13 <Rat-Salad> yeah I seen.. you need to save it and mail what you have later :)
10-21-101 11:37:24 <Walter> OK, will do.
10-21-101 11:37:31 *** al7oj (mandm@104-150-237-24.sol-dial.gci.net) has joined #warpdoctor [11:37:31]
10-21-101 11:37:41 <lalcan> an interface to the VOICE irc forum could be another way to attract new users sort of an on-line helpdesk...
10-21-101 11:38:26 <MADecsSMP> I'd prefer tips be sent to the VOICE Newsletter.  We can then look at including them all under WD.  But having two separate sources for tips is splitting our resources.
10-21-101 11:38:26 <Rat-Salad> you mean like a web chat applet?
10-21-101 11:38:40 <MADecsSMP> The web chat already exists on WEBBnet
10-21-101 11:38:46 <Rat-Salad> thats true MADecsSMP 
10-21-101 11:39:25 <Rat-Salad> and we do like to the WEBBnet website
10-21-101 11:39:42 <Rat-Salad> link
10-21-101 11:39:58 <MADecsSMP> Having a direct link on WD to the web chat would be a good idea
10-21-101 11:40:11 <Rat-Salad> that can be arranged
10-21-101 11:40:43 <Walter> Mark:  If I submit the Styler/2 tip to the Newsletter, which makes sense btw, how will it end up on WD?
10-21-101 11:41:16 <Rat-Salad> suggesting that I steal the content from the newsletter? hehe
10-21-101 11:41:35 <MADecsSMP> Walter: I thought we were working on all the Newsletter content into the WD DB
10-21-101 11:42:19 *** Wayfarer has left #warpdoctor [11:42:19]
10-21-101 11:42:54 *** al7oj is now known as alaskan
10-21-101 11:43:13 <Walter> I don't think anyone ever mentioned it to me, but it does make sense, now that you mention it.
10-21-101 11:43:14 <Rat-Salad> wow its alaskan 
10-21-101 11:43:31 <alaskan> he-he...thot I would sneak in :)
10-21-101 11:43:41 <Rat-Salad> been a long time since i seen you around alaskan 
10-21-101 11:43:52 <MADecsSMP> Has anyone heard from Charles on DB2?
10-21-101 11:44:16 <Rat-Salad> I haven't heard from Charles in like two weeks or so
10-21-101 11:44:31 <alaskan> yep, been awhile. Moved my warp4 system to new computer (950mhz). Just haven't got all the programs moved yet.
10-21-101 11:44:40 <Walter> I haven't either.
10-21-101 11:46:05 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: to continue Rat-Salad... I was on the phone... why don't I start with a small assignment ? :-) ya send me a couple pages....
10-21-101 11:46:31 <eTronik> and paying my bills via homebanking...
10-21-101 11:47:03 <Rat-Salad> eTronik: you probably miss what I said earlier then.. mail me after the meeting and we'll talk about it further... rs@fyrelizard.com
10-21-101 11:48:10 <Walter> Alaskan, have you considered a LAN?  Then you don't have to "move" all your programs.
10-21-101 11:50:05 <alaskan> Walter, yeah, but I need a different card that OS/2 will recognize :(
10-21-101 11:50:08 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: and you keep my mail: smahomad@ip.pt , since I'm moving most of the time... I ask that you "ping" me ...
10-21-101 11:50:42 <Rat-Salad> k
10-21-101 11:51:11 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: most of the time I'm away from my OS2 desktop and working in a win32 laptop in the clients site far away from home...
10-21-101 11:51:36 <Walter> Alaskan: you mean a NIC?
10-21-101 11:53:44 <Rat-Salad> its pretty easy to get OS/2 compatible NICs :)
10-21-101 11:53:50 <alaskan> Walter, yes. Sorry I wasn't too clear on that. Between Linux, FreeBSD, and OS/2, I don't always keep track of what works with what ;), so I don't remember which NIC came with this computer.
10-21-101 11:54:18 <Rat-Salad> hehe your a dual boot freak too :)
10-21-101 11:54:47 <Rat-Salad> err multiple
10-21-101 11:54:52 <alaskan> yep, anything but win*  (which I labeled the Me version as DOA!
10-21-101 11:55:13 <eTronik> its not dual boot, its Trial boot !
10-21-101 11:55:19 <eTronik> :)
10-21-101 11:55:23 <alaskan> It literally crashed the day I got the computer and booted it the very first time!
10-21-101 11:55:46 <alaskan> (WinMe)
10-21-101 11:56:07 <Rat-Salad> hehe sounds like a flaw from the factory
10-21-101 11:56:31 <Sector> Which factory¨
10-21-101 11:57:03 <Rat-Salad> Microsoft?
10-21-101 11:57:04 <Rat-Salad> hehe
10-21-101 11:57:15 <alaskan> Anyway, OS/2 doesn't recognize the NIC or the VIA audio chip(on board).
10-21-101 11:57:55 <eTronik> yeah the VIA audio chip... how to make it work under OS2 ?
10-21-101 11:58:09 <eTronik> I got an VIA AC97 ? can sound a beep from it...
10-21-101 11:58:39 <alaskan> you're further along than I am !
10-21-101 11:58:55 * Sector hasn't ever bothered trying the onboard audio
10-21-101 11:59:17 <eTronik> Sector: that ain't much help ya know ;-)
10-21-101 11:59:31 <Rat-Salad> there is a VIA AC97 driver on Hobbes
10-21-101 11:59:48 <alaskan> I should buy another audio card, but it does work under Linux and FreeBSD.
10-21-101 12:00:48 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: actually no... the driver is in VIA's site, in hobbes you have a patch or smething along those lines...
10-21-101 12:00:51 * alaskan is happy since our road just got snowplowed!
10-21-101 12:01:20 <Rat-Salad> we got lower end SoundBlaster Live! cards.. they work great in all the OSes so far
10-21-101 12:01:37 <alaskan> I tried the the driver from hobbes, but didn't get anywhere with it :(
10-21-101 12:02:01 *** Walter has left #warpdoctor [12:02:01]
10-21-101 12:02:18 <Sector> Hmmm, guess it wasn't much of a WarpDoctor discussion...\
10-21-101 12:02:23 <alaskan> eTronik, do you mean a os/2 driver?
10-21-101 12:02:35 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: the SB live driver for OS2 is based on Linux sources right ?
10-21-101 12:02:40 * alaskan hopes he didn't send Walter away
10-21-101 12:02:41 <Rat-Salad> Walter started it hehe
10-21-101 12:03:03 <eTronik> alaskan: yeah ! VIA makes a multi-plattform driver package, OS2 is included... and
10-21-101 12:03:06 <Sector> Yes it is based on Linux sources
10-21-101 12:03:16 <Rat-Salad> eTronik: yes it is based on the linux drivers..
10-21-101 12:03:23 <eTronik> if you search on en.os2.org, you'll find encouraging news over the AC97 chip
10-21-101 12:03:48 <alaskan> hmm, guess I missed it since I did try looking. 
10-21-101 12:03:53 <eTronik> Rat-Salad: I should get one of those...
10-21-101 12:04:13 <alaskan> me too!
10-21-101 12:04:28 <eTronik> alaskan: basically looks like VIA is considering/starting working on an improved driver for OS2
10-21-101 12:05:10 <Rat-Salad> we got a good deal on ours
10-21-101 12:05:26 <alaskan> That is great news! Hope they "see it through to the end" rather than vapor/rumour ware :)
10-21-101 12:05:31 <Rat-Salad> SoundBlaster Live! Value.. $30 a peice
10-21-101 12:06:16 <alaskan> Rat-Salad, where are those?
10-21-101 12:06:29 <Sector> Ummm, those where in Florida
10-21-101 12:06:34 <eTronik> sheesh NS/2 renders text extremely bad.... my eyes are hurting
10-21-101 12:06:37 <Chrissy> I got a deal from a co-worker at my former job
10-21-101 12:06:46 <Sector> It's the Chrissy
10-21-101 12:06:55 <lalcan> this is the address to the latest SB live drivers: (i believe) http://www.xs4all.nl/~sandervl/sbliveos2.075.zip
10-21-101 12:07:08 <Rat-Salad> wait a second there lalcan 
10-21-101 12:07:14 <Rat-Salad> theres newer ones than that

10-21-101 12:07:51 <Sector> Yup there are

10-21-101 12:08:53 <eTronik> last I hear latest SB live drivers are in 0.80 version...
10-21-101 12:08:57 <Walter> Sorry, about that.  I'm not sure what happened.  I was looking up something for alaskan, and then <poof>
10-21-101 12:09:01 <Sector> Well, it's compatable with the old driver...
10-21-101 12:09:02 <eTronik> :-) even though I don't have one...
10-21-101 12:09:30 <Sector> 0.81 is the latest
10-21-101 12:09:50 <Rat-Salad> gee im behind on them too then
10-21-101 12:10:06 <Rat-Salad> thought it was 0.80
10-21-101 12:10:13 <eTronik> so I should get an OEM bundl of the SB live ?
10-21-101 12:10:19 <Walter> lalan, since you're the expert <hehe> is there anything that works with OS/2 for the SoundBlaster 32 device?
10-21-101 12:10:21 <Sector> Should be fine
10-21-101 12:10:48 <lalcan> mmm... let me check...
10-21-101 12:12:56 <Rat-Salad> the Live is the first really good card that I've owned.. first time I had ever heard more than one sound playing at the same time :)
10-21-101 12:13:00 <lalcan> afaik the awe 32 is supported under OS/2 4 -so it says the IBM dd page...-
10-21-101 12:13:26 <Rat-Salad> OS/2 comes with Awe32 drivers
10-21-101 12:13:38 * Sector has an AWE32 operating along with the SBLive
10-21-101 12:13:46 <lalcan> ok, got to leave, see you all soon!
10-21-101 12:14:09 *** lalcan has left #warpdoctor [12:14:09]
10-21-101 12:14:46 <eTronik> I had an Awe32... with OS2 supplied drivers
10-21-101 12:15:27 <Walter> What's a AWE32?
10-21-101 12:16:03 <Rat-Salad> we are assuming when you say Sounblaster 32.. you mean the Awe32
10-21-101 12:16:42 <Walter> I don't think so.
10-21-101 12:16:58 <Sector> Nope, SoundBlaster 32 is not an AWE32
10-21-101 12:17:32 <eTronik> errr now that I think of it, I don0t remember if I had an Awe or an Sb32... guess it was an SB32
10-21-101 12:17:38 <Sector> Came out a bit after the AWE32 (before the Live)
10-21-101 12:18:14 <Walter> I have one of these new-fangled ATX (OK, maybe not-so-new-fangled) and it has a SB 32 built into the mobo.  I'm just wondering if there's anyway to activate it with OS/2.
10-21-101 12:21:59 <Rat-Salad> our systems are on the lower end hehe.. we still have AT socket7 boards
10-21-101 12:23:23 <Walter> My processor was being to grunt and labour, so I upgraded.  Unfortunately, I couldn't upgrade the processor any more in my S7
10-21-101 12:23:32 <Walter> board.  I wish I could have.
10-21-101 12:24:23 * Sector has one AT Socket7 here
10-21-101 12:24:52 <Walter> Now I've got a Gigabyte Socket A board.  I should be able to upgrade in that for awhile. :-)
10-21-101 12:25:26 <Sector> Got three Socket-A's here
10-21-101 12:25:57 <Sector> Two Abit KT7's and an Epox 8kta3
10-21-101 12:27:03 <alaskan> Sector, still have all your C=64 stuff also?
10-21-101 12:27:25 <Sector> Well, I've got three cartridges and a datacassete for it
10-21-101 12:27:58 <Sector> Don't have a C64 to use it with though...
10-21-101 12:28:13 <Walter> My new 'board is at the top of the food chain.  There are 4 other machines on my LAN spread among my family members, and I'm going build a 5th and dedicate it as a print-server.
10-21-101 12:28:19 <alaskan> me too, but have a full box of cartridges.
10-21-101 12:28:52 <Sector> Oh well, if you want to count all the machines on the LAN you can another Abit KT7...
10-21-101 12:29:12 <Rat-Salad> Sector has a army of computers
10-21-101 12:29:24 <alaskan> Walter, thats what I should do also. I have more pc's around here (386 to this 950mhz) than I know what to do with ;)
10-21-101 12:29:53 <alaskan> plus Amiga 4000 and several C=64's.
10-21-101 12:30:01 <Sector> 5 pc comptables and an Apple IIgs sitting in here (plus a Pied Piper, Franklin Ace 1200, Atari 600xl, another Apple IIgs sitting in the closet)
10-21-101 12:30:41 <Walter> Alaskan, once you set up a LAN and connect all your computers to it, after awhile you will wonder how you ever managed without one.
10-21-101 12:31:18 <eTronik> Toshiba T1000, Mac Classic, 386, 486, 2 Toshiba Laptop plus the AMD desktop PC = 7 PCs !!
10-21-101 12:31:22 <alaskan> Well, the one thing I lack is the "grey matter" to get them all working together ;)
10-21-101 12:31:41 <Sector> alaskan, it doesn't take too much to get them talking
10-21-101 12:31:41 <Walter> Alaskan, You have an Amiga 4000?!  I didn't know they ever built one?
10-21-101 12:31:42 <Rat-Salad> all in use?
10-21-101 12:31:57 <alaskan> And to make sure all the NIC are OS compatable to what is on the machine.
10-21-101 12:32:30 <alaskan> Sure I have a 4000! I love it.. we also have the 500 and 3000.
10-21-101 12:32:32 <Rat-Salad> you mean your not sure what nics are in the PCs? clbsniff
10-21-101 12:32:42 <Rat-Salad> err
10-21-101 12:33:23 <alaskan> The A4000 is a tower.
10-21-101 12:34:39 <alaskan> Rat-Salad, I got to make sure that the NIC I put in the different computers is recognized by the OS on that machine (or OSes!)
10-21-101 12:35:46 <Rat-Salad> I suggest you get NICs with the RealTek 8139 chipset. they seem to work with everything
10-21-101 12:35:59 <Walter> Alaskan, email me at walter.os2@home.com and I'll do a little research and see if I can help.
10-21-101 12:36:40 <alaskan> ok Walter, will do...thanks!
10-21-101 12:36:59 <alaskan> Rat-Salad, will look into those, thanks
10-21-101 12:37:33 <Rat-Salad> their pretty cheap too :)
10-21-101 12:37:45 <alaskan> thats good :)
10-21-101 12:38:20 <Sector> Got several Aopen ALN-315's (and one AON-315) here work fine with both OS/2 and Linux.  
10-21-101 12:38:51 <Rat-Salad> I know they work in OS/2 and Linux.. just make sure they'll work in FreeBSD
10-21-101 12:38:54 <Walter> Trick seems to be finding one that works with FreeBSD.
10-21-101 12:38:57 <eTronik> what about wireless LAN ?? how to go about it with OS2 ?
10-21-101 12:38:59 <Sector> Couldn't tell you about FreeBSD though haven't had that installed in years...
10-21-101 12:39:15 <Sector> MADecsSMP has some wireless working under OS/2
10-21-101 12:40:08 <MADecsSMP> I have the old IBM Wireless LAN hardware working.  I'm tryimg to get the newer Cisco 340 802.11b stuff working now.
10-21-101 12:40:13 <eTronik> in my new place, I wanted to install some sort of wireless lan stuff to share some sort of high bandwidth connection to the net
10-21-101 12:40:26 * alaskan wouldn't be without FreeBSd ;)
10-21-101 12:40:53 <Rat-Salad> probably been a couple years since i had FreeBSD too
10-21-101 12:41:16 * alaskan just upgraded last night!
10-21-101 12:41:31 * alaskan is now at 4.4 -stable
10-21-101 12:42:07 <Rat-Salad> hmm last time I used it.. hmm 3.2 stable I think
10-21-101 12:42:23 <Sector> 2.0 for me
10-21-101 12:42:59 <alaskan> wow, you guys don't know what you're missing :)
10-21-101 12:44:48 <MADecsSMP> wireless is a lot more expensive then CAT5
10-21-101 12:44:52 <alaskan> I am not positive, but I think the NIC in this computer is a 3com 3c905b-tx...if what I wrote in my cheatsheet is for this computer.
10-21-101 12:45:20 <Walter> Most of my LAN clients are W4.5.  My primary machine is running eCS.  I know is OT, but does anyone have any idea why my eCS machine can access my Warp 4.5 machines (and shares), but my Warp 4.5 can't even access the eCS machine (let alone the shares).  Not even using the instruction NET VIEW \\WALTER-DESKTOP\ .
10-21-101 12:45:50 * Sector doesn't use cheatsheets
10-21-101 12:46:20 <alaskan> Sector has better memory than me ;)
10-21-101 12:47:19 <Sector> Well, some of it's Micron...
10-21-101 12:49:49 <alaskan> Gotta go everybody. Walter, will write you when get all hardware info. 
10-21-101 12:50:01 <alaskan> nice chatting with you all again!
10-21-101 12:50:03 <Rat-Salad> bye
