Yes.

My main BBS is running under OS/2, and is available at
telnet:\\tohpat.darktech.org.  I also have the code compiled under Linux,
but due to a contract I am working, I am unable to contribute to the
development at this time, which is why there has been no recent development
on Max.  

Bo got max working to a certian level under Linux.  I haven't downloaded
his latest fixes.  I do know that I have the same issue with headers under
the linux version I have running under Debian 3.0.  I'm now running Debian
3.1 and haven't had time to bring up Max under the new configuration yet.

We were working on the telnet and dial-up code.  I think Bo got that
working.  I also know we had an error in the mex area, and I thought Bo
figured out the fix, and I thought that was in the current CVS tree.... 
But I haven't applied that yet.

For first time installs, you may need to pick up a few things as part of
the initial install.  Bo and I have made changes since we last ran an
initial install.....  And it has been too long for me to remember exactly
what was needed.  Searching old messages in archive MUFFIN message areas on
my BBS should point to what is needed.

Take care.....
