Hi, Bernie. Just checked my version and I've got Service Pack 2, which is the latest available for Windows 2000 (see http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/). I did run the program in Windows 95 and it worked fine. The one thing I noticed was that the big EUPHORIA image does not get displayed in the Win2K version. Maybe this is a clue! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help track this problem down.

I also got running my linux redhat 7.1 today: all i can say: crap compared to windows. I got one question: how do you access windows files (which are on other partition)? You can't run quake on linux?? ----- Original Message ----- From: <euman at bellsouth.net> Subject: Re: Bug Report - Bernie's Win32Engine > > I just upgraded to RedHat Linux 7.1 after running 6.2 it seemed like forever. > > I have one thing to say............ > WATCH OUT MS! > > anyone not hooked into linux its probably a good idea to start now. > > Euman > euman at bellsouth.net

You can't? It's been available for Linux for several years. Irv

And to someone who has used Linux, Mac's are crap. Use each of these systems 8 hrs a day, 5 days a week, for a couple of years, then get back to us. BTW, RedHat - despite the marketing hype - isn't by any means the 'best' Linux out there, either. Regards, Irv

I still keep an A1200 040/40mhz that can be up and running and doing useful work while my P3 550mhz PC/ Windows is just thinking about it I vote for Eu for AmigaOS :) Mark

True, but Mandrake tends to look nicer, have an easier install, and better security (I am told), even though it is based on RedHat. Its Software Manager is really slick. Since Mandrake was the first which recognized and worked with all my hardware, I have stuck with it. Regards, Irv

What hardware did RH not recognise? The only problem I have ever run into was installing on my laptop which has a WinModem but fortunately there are drivers that support the majority of them now.... > > Regards, > Irv BTW, great job on the tools you wrote for linux.

The port should either be open or closed. If you have no valid traffic thru it, the port should be closed, and not reply to anything sent to it. It's called "stealth" for some reason, and what i do on win95. A port that does have valid traffic should still not send anything back unless you have an application running to send a reply. Kat

Thanks Kat, I've been studying up on Hacking a bit here lately hence my private post to you about *SOCKS. I wish I knew more about this subject, I follow all of your post and wish I were your neighbor only so I could look over your shoulder. ;) Euman euman at bellsouth.net

Mandrake's graphical disk partitioning is both more flexible and easier to use than RedHat's. The Mandrake control center makes RedHat's configuration tools look amateurish. The Software Manager a nice, graphical interface to RPM, which I like better than RedHat's. > I currently use a modified firestarter thru ipchains that seems to > be ok at blocking most of the scans I get...it also allows you to > shutdown a port if its being scanned regular from any address. > firestarter is a medium-medium strength *FREE* firewall.

A built-in soundcard. Never worked with anything, except Mandrake. Regards, Irv
