Hello,

Hi, I'm Jackie (the evil twin brother alien UNIX type who doesn't know
anything about A/UX :-) ) I need to make sure that all you kind folks out
there know that Apple didn't "assign" me to be reading  and answering the
news. I read the news on my own, cause I like it. I like helping when I
can, I'm just a helpful kinda guy I guess.

Sorry about the misinterpretation of the file access question. My gosh, I
guess I get mixed up too :-). There are applications out there that are
accessing files across Macintosh and A/UX operating systems. I don't know
how they do it (Oh no!, I don't know! ;-)).

Please remember, I always say, "Hope this helps", at the end of my postings
and it means just that. I hope the information that I give helps, it doesn't
mean that I am the all knowing A/UX guru of time and space :-) )

I also want to thank the many folks who have already sent me letters of
thanks and encouragement. (I first read them and didn't know what was going
on until I read the news! 8-( ) Thanx.

Hope this helps.
