Didn't think that was the trouble; I've been averaging between 1.6 and 2.7k/sec over my 28.8 link, so it's not a problem there. It just keeps going along at a pretty decent speed, and then . And I have to start all over again. I hope that there's something easy here; I'd rather not have to (for the third time) pull down a zillion files and transfer them, six at a time, onto a zillion floppies, and sit at my computer switching floppies for hours. I did that with 2.1.6, and with 2.2.1; that was more than enough for me. Thanks, - Matt Fuller (.sig sym-linked to /dev/null)
