1) I have had a lost interupt on an XMT (xylogics-472) controller just like
   the kind that have been reported (and we have had lots of on other machines
   where a pep-ed mc-500 can get to an interupt generated by a Tape Master
   faster than the TM has posted the vector correctly). 

   This one was during intensive A/D acquisition to tape. The CPU was a 5400
   (with 68881), 2mb memory, integral graphics, and an EF-12M. The tape 
   controller is a Xylogics-472.

2) I got a mailer (Mail) from Masscomp via my salesman which supports SMTP 
   quite a while ago, and installed it last weekend after we installed a fiber
   segment so that more of my masscomps are connected to our mostly sun network.
   If I use a 'sendmail.cf' that looks almost exactly like the one we are using
   in our sun clients, mail works reasonably well, but not quite perfect.

3) My  salesman also tells me that NFS may start Beta test in late summer. This
   is a significant improvement over 'the end of the year.' Or maybe its just
   smoke because I keep asking, and they are getting tired of hearing about it.


I would like to hear  from other users who are having tape drive problems
if there are any.
