The Netherlands, July 8, 1996.
Hello dear reader,
NET/Mac v2.3.60 was born...
For those who don't know NET/Mac... NET/Mac is the application that
supports TCP/IP over packet-radio, which means, that hamradio operators
can use NET/Mac for their wireless TCP/IP network...
In this version of NET/Mac the following mods/features were implemented:
- Recording a finger-session now results in a TEXT-file
- Support for 'rtzone' comand
- Fixed a bug that could crash NET/Mac after a 'ping clear'
- You cannot return to the window of a closed session anymore
- Trace to a file now result in a TEXT-file
- The hosts-file is no longer busy after using the 'hostfile' command
- Implemented some mods to trace an infinite loop in 'route expanded'
- Implemented just a minor mod for the Mac512Ke version of NET/Mac
- NET/Mac does NOT support the new Buckmaster CD-ROM's HAMCALL
database yet... I am trying to convince Buckmaster that I need
the new data-encryption-method, but as of yet they are not ready
to release a description of the encoding-algorithm...
The old CD-ROM's remain fully supported...
This version obsoletes all versions of info-mac/comm/radio-net-mac in
the Sumex-Aim.stanford.edu (and it's mirror-) archives.
The new NET/Mac has (hopefully) been uploaded to:
- oak.oakland.edu, to the directory /pub/hamradio/mac/digital
- ftp.ucsd.edu, to directory /hamradio/packet/tcpip/incoming.
If it's not there (anymore), then look at /hamradio/packet/tcpip/mac.
- hamster.business.uwo.ca, to directory /pub/amsoft
- wa2zkd mirrors UCSD's incoming on his Landline BBS. Ham's w/o ftp
can call 716-544-1863 or 2645.
NET/Mac will be uploaded to PI1HVH.AMPR.ORG, directory public/mac.
