Something like ProCom for the PC. You might like C-Kermit, and then again you might not, but I do! ;-) > I am also thinking to upgrade my SS2 running 4.1.3_U1 sun4c, to > Solaris 2.3/4/5 ?? > What do you think of that?? good move, bad move, ??? "bad move" ;-) You might be more interested in running NetBSD/sparc-1.1. I've ran one such IPC with -current for a while about May of last year, and we're building another (with 1.1) for a customer now. It feels slightly faster than SunOS-4.1.4 did, even just as an "X terminal", and of course as operating systems goes NetBSD is quite a bit more modern, secure, and supported than S(t)unOS. Of it is essentially SunOS binary compatible too, so long as you load it up with a copy of the SunOS shared libraries. -- Greg A.

What are the 8 little dip-switches for in the bottom? They're set to 0x22 [reading 123...8] right now. thanks andy - ------------------------------ End of Suns-at-Home Digest ******************************
