I've uploaded a binary version of tinymush 2.0.9 to both tsx-11 and
sunsite.  Included are: 

	tinymush 2.0.9 binaries and runtime text files.
	tinyfugue 2.0.b2 binaries and runtime text files.

The original Linux binary version (2.0.8.p9) had a bug that would cause
the database to be eaten if you added more than 1000 objects between
reboots.  Please discard the old version and use this one instead.

tinymush-2.0.9-bin.tar.Z has been uploaded to:
	tsx-11.mit.edu:/incoming
	sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming

This is a binary distribution of TinyMUSH 2.0.9 and TinyFugue 2.0.b2.
Both work on Linux 0.98.1 with TCP built into the kernel.

All programs were built with the jump table 4.1 libc and the 4.0 libm.

Caution: make sure that the hostnames option is set to no in the netmush.conf
file, or mush will hang for about a minute whenever anyone connects.  For the
same reson, use numeric IP addresses with tinyfugue.  The included netmush.conf
file already has this change.  If the gethostbyname bug gets fixed (or you
don't mind the wait) you can turn hostnames back on.

Each connect generates two error entries in the log: 'NET/FAIL : (linger)'
and 'setsockopt: Protocol not available'.  Neither seems to affect the mush
in any real way.

tf was built to install into /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib, the tf_install
script in the fugue-2.0.b2 directory does this.

The source to tinymush is available on:
	caisr2.caisr.cwru.edu(129.22.24.22):/pub/mush
	primerd.prime.com(129.122.132.150):/pub/games/mud/tinymush

The source to tinyfugue is available on:
        ferkel.ucsb.edu(128.111.72.60):/pub/mud/clients
        ftp.math.okstate.edu(139.78.10.6):/pub/muds/clients
	primerd.prime.com(129.122.132.150):/pub/games/mud/clients

The only change needed to get tinyfugue to compile under Linux is to add
-DSYSVTTY to FLAGS in the Makefile.
