Keith, Is there any way for a non-internet site (ie. no FTP access) to acquire the UNIX ARCSRC.TAR-Z file from SIMTEL20 ?? I have tried it via the MAIL trickle servers, but they don't appear to know about the PD2: directory(s). I guess what I'd like to see is a duplicate copy of this very useful utility in the PD1: directory, which CAN be accessed by mail. It's not really all that inappropriate, as the source could also be useful for some MS-DOS systems as well (though I want it for use on UNIX to examine MS-DOS .ARC files that I download from SIMTEL20). Cheers, -Mark
