I just looked through the patch and it seems the putpmsg, getpmsg, poll syscalls are defined along with a whole pile of assembly code. I do not know the extant of the patching only that it was written specifically for 2.0.34 (and later 2.0.35). If I had to guess bearing on the way Netware works I would say they implemented both low-level STREAMS and TLI. > > - Ted > -------------------------------------------------- Matthew G.
