Thanks for the reply Gary;
I've commented this out of the Max.ctl file and ran silt max
%        MCP Pipe        \pipe\maximus\mcp
%        MCP Sessions    16
This is my compress.cfg..
Since pkzip (and not zip) is being called Max apparently is
reconizing that it's running a DOS version (I'm runing the DOS
version of Maximus 3.01 under Windows 95). But I can't figure out
why it's calling maxpipe..
Ideally I would like Max to run under OS/2 and DOS with the same
.ctl files but it doesn't look like this will be possible.
