BJ> Is the current TCP/IP connection option still broken in Maximus?

 RJT> I didn't know there _was_ a current TCP/IP connection in there...

The current code supports a one node telnet into the BBS.  It is "dos
think" in certain parts of the setup.  But the basics worked.  Wes got
that going before he didn't have time....


 BJ> I'll admit it was limited to a single connection at a time.  I have
 BJ> some thoughts about how that could be tweaked into spawning
 BJ> multiple copies of maximus, but that will require a "special" setup
 BJ> of the control files (similar to how I run with a single common
 BJ> maximus control file for all my nodes under OS/2) and require
 BJ> automatic assignment of task ID numbers.... 

 BJ> But, I'm not in a position where I can touch the code right now....

 RJT> I can wait.    :-)

Good....  It could be a while if my current employer does not cooperate....

Take care.....

Bob Jones
