Oh, memories. I do hope someone (who is not me) rescues this. A cluster of three DECstation 5000s running Ultrix 4.2a was my first introduction to UNIX when I arrived at Cornell University in 1992. They're dreadful machines, but very nostalgic for me. -Seth -- Seth Morabito Poulsbo, WA w...@loomcom.com
