Hi Steven,

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, it may even be simpler than that. I did a quick comparison between the
respective CONFIG.SYS files for the (fully installed) 1.1 partition, and the
not-so-fully-installed 1.2 partition. The former had \TCPIP\DLL in the LibPath
statement, and \TCPIP\BIN in the Path statement, whereas the latter did not. Once I
corrected this, whatever program objects were present in those folders now seem to be
working. However, I will have to take some sort of inventory before I can have any
confidence that some program objects are not missing entirely. A few of the ones I was
accustomed to seeing in the W4 Internet or Internet Util. folders, such as Gopher, seem to
be history. But I don't know if these have any continuing use today, or recall if they
were included in the 1.0 or 1.1 eCS installs.

Yes, it is available again, without the need for any remedial action.

I'll see if I have any need for something more capable than FTP-PM. Didn't Emtec put out
an Internet Suite that is no more . . . or am I thinking of someone else's product ?
