I had problems trying to download the file using my old netscape browser but ftp'ing to the site worked fine. The executable is 13058048 bytes, the tar file is 9907411 bytes. It doesn't seem to have the quirks that 405 had, namely if I disconnected and tried to read mail or do anything else it would completely hose X to the point of not being able to obtain input focus from the keyboard or mouse. I could not even launch netscape w/o the ppp connection active on 405. No I can disconnect, read email, terminate netscape, bring another session up w/o a problem. Thanks for the push Stuart.
