Hmmm - zoo.almanac.bc.ca is a valid address - it's a DOS box in the almanac.bc.ca domain - I will check the Waffle setup and make certain it uses the full domain address in the future... > You need to load EMM36 explicitly, by including it in the CONFIG.SYS, >or alternatively USE that QEMM program you have commented out, by >using the installer program that comes with either.

EMM386 is apparently forced - perhaps because of SSTOR being in use, so QEMM refuses to load, telling me another memory manager is already resident. If someone from novell.com can clarify this for me, I'd appreciate hearing from them, as I would indeed rather use QEMM... -- " It may have been the Propaganda Ministry that ... thought up the idea of forcing all Jews to wear a yellow star ...
