It can be interesting for me to create a diff on it, if I don't know
which version you branched from. Or, if you have the unchanged sources
around somewhere, do a "diff -c <orginial> <your version>", and send me
the result of that instead.

Send a diff to me instead. I probably have some stuff that I've worked
on in the code which haven't been distributed. And it's also in general
a bad idea to have the code distributed from different places with
different versions.
I'll put a new version up as soon as I've merged stuff, which will
probably be tomorrow, if you can get me the diff today. And after that,
it would be nice to have people test it at their systems.

*Subject: *[HECnet] Windows Version of Bridge
I just wanted to let you know that I have ported the bridge code to
Windows. It seems to work well for me. If anyone is interested in a
copy, let me know.
I think that it needs just a little bit more work to do the following:
1. Tidy up some bits that I almost certainly left behind while
trying to
get it to work.
2. Turn it into a Windows Service so that it starts automatically when
Windows starts.
Another feature which would be nice to add generally is something which
periodically re-resolves the DNS names in the config file to IP
addresses, so that people who use something like DynDNS because they
don t have a fixed IP address, can use it more easily and not fall off
the network for too long when their IP address changes. Presumably
calling the SIGHUP handler (read_conf) every so often would do the
trick.
It would also be nice to make the code a bit more portable so that it
will compile and run on more platforms without modification, a bit like
SIMH.

For now, I am running it with one fan, and it being only 60-65F in the
house (and the computer office) the VAX is not running hot. I removed one
of the drives, since I really wasn't doing anything with it. (it was a
pull from a BA356 canister) Looked half-height to me, although I do have
some smaller in size drives that I may swap in.
At some point I'm going to source new fans and then try to pry the old
ones out. Other than that when I had the power supply apart, no domed
caps, everything is quite clean (and even cleaner when I gave it a date
with the shop air compressor).
I have two 90's (not 90A's) in the closet I could press into service but I
really do not want to trash this 90A for just missing one fan.
Thanks for the responses all.

Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a
polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they
prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.
