You need to call Microport and ask for the fix disk. It's a toll-free call: 1-800-PC2-UNIX. They've been fairly responsive to me thus far and calling them can actually get problems solved. bigtex is using a Courier 2400 and moves ~1.5meg of data between 4 to 5 sites per day using the Courier for both dial-outs and logins. -- James R.
