(We are > running 3+Open 1.0 with 4 Meg RAM). Well we don't have the same configuration, but are experiencing some hairy problems with 3+Open 1.0. Our configuration is: Server: HP Vetra RS25C with 8 meg RAM Workstations (20): HP Vectra ES/8 with 640K We are attempting to use 3+Start to automatically boot the workstations from the server when they power up. We can get no more than (any of the) 14 machines to boot at one time. We can get 20 to boot from floppies! Has anyone else had similar problems? Has anyone got 3+Open to work reliably at all? I have heard rumours of 3+Open 1.1, are they true? Thanks, Norm -- Norman Gaywood Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Computing Science University of New England, Armidale, 2351, Australia.
