If you can even connect, they run at the speed of > try ftp://ftp.omnipresence.com He just said it was totally bugged out. The operative word is "was". The demand for IBrowse 0.81 reached limits we hadn't see before, and the ftp server was crashing every 20 minutes (roughly). Other commitments - and the problems of fetching kernel source over a loaded line :-( meant it stayed that way until a bit after noon March 22, at which time a new kernel with several static internal table sizes increased was installed. It's been stable since. The connection still gets pretty crowded (and if you're bummed about it, think about how I feel, with that line to go through on matter WHAT site I'm connecting to!). Basically, try the ftp site again. And be thankfull that your preferred platform doesn't HAVE silly things like statically allocated tables deep in the heart of the OS. <mike
