The problem can lead to a system crash or file corruption of copied files. This has been independently identified by Apple. Since a fix will not be available for an undetermined amount of time, Connectix is distributing this patch as a fix for users of AppleShare 3.6.1. The enclosed Read Me file contains requirements and other information regarding AppleShare 3.6.1 Patch. If, after reading the Read Me file, you still have questions about this patch, please address them to "support@connectix.com". #### BINHEX appleshare-setup.hqx **** Date: Fri, 4 Nov 1994 17:43:56 -0600 From: "Apgar, Eric" Subject: comm/atlk/appleshare-setup --========================_12021677==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" AppleShareSetup Control Panel Copyright (c) 1991-1992, Apple Computer, Inc. All Rights Reserved by Jim Luther, Apple Developer Technical Support The AppleShareSetup control panel is free software and can be distributed freely by individuals. For commercial distribution or bulletin board distribution please contact Apple Software Licensing. AppleShareSetup is distributed "as is" and unsupported by Apple. Please don't call Apple for technical support on this program. ********** System Requirements ********** This control panel only works with the AppleShare 3.0, AppleShare 7.1, and future AppleShare Chooser extensions under both System 6 and System 7. It does not work with the AppleShare 2.0 Chooser extension under System 6 or the AppleShare 7.0 or 7.0.1 Chooser extension under System 7 - the configuration features just aren't there. The AppleShare Chooser extension must be in the "Extensions" folder under System 7, or in the "System Folder" under System 6. ********** What's it do? ********** The AppleShareSetup control panel lets you set or disable various options supported by the AppleShare Chooser extension. With AppleShareSetup, you can: * Make specific AppleShare alerts "time-out" after a set amount of time. For example, you can make the "The file server is closing down in x minute(s)" alert automatically dismiss itself after 10 seconds. * Completely disable all AppleShare alerts. * Disable AppleShare "Greeting" messages. * Disable some auto-mount features. Full Balloon Help is provided under System 7. Turn on Balloon Help (and read your AppleShare manuals) if you can't figure this control panel out.

Now creates its own Network Data folder if its not found, this means you can run ATM from anywhere on your disk. The program will not bomb if this folder is not found. 2. The Application memory size has been pre-set to 750k, this allows ATM to run under Multifinder. 3. The "Echo" function has been improved. Echo as an implementation under DDP does not seem to work in the prescribed manner in "Inside Mac" Vols II and V, and also Inside Appletalk. I have developed an algorhthym that takes care of about 99% of ECHO, some errors still occur but very few. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATM 0.4 This little program was developed as an exercise, just like a lot of other peoples I guess. In the writting of this program I learn't that there are a few untruths or things just plain left unsaid. For instance you would think that all Macs and LaserWriters would have AEP (AppleTalk Echo Protocol) built in, this seems not to be the case. When you activate this program and after the Mac has finished making its report of the network, you can double click on the desired node in the list and 100 packets are sent to that node using AEP. AEP is a possible test of the line quality between nodes, this is not strictly true, ie. if a PC node is buisy packets can be lost and therefore alter your interpretation of the results. The display consists of Bridge data, Zone data, currently visible entities, an AEP dissplay and two fake boxes. There are also a couple of fake menus, as you will see the interface kind of evolved in the writting. Its a simple matter to remove the unwanted stuff. The program sorts all the NVE's (Network Visible Entities) Alphabetically and by Node address, other information is provided along with these files,ie, numbers of nodes,data and time etc and Zone plus Bridge data. The program has been of use at this site because there are well over 150 NVE's to deal with. I would have liked to implement a graphic load averager, but I get too buisy these days to sit down and concentrate on it. Anyway hope its of use to you, I can be reached (312)-702-3674 (work) or (312)-955-1932 (home). My email address is jackson@biovax.uchicago.edu. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Greg Anderson wrote a marvelously skanky INIT and code resource for doing this. It allows you to have transparent Guest access for Apple Events. If you install the INIT, you get no dialogs if guest access is allowed. If you use the code resource, you get no dialogs for that program. Mind you, this works with 7.x and may break at any moment, but it is currently the ONLY way to get past the dialog.

What's New since 1.0? Many bugs where fixed. It now works correctly on multizone systems! Why is EZChat better then other chatting programs? -Backward Compatibility % Works with system 6 and old macs! % No annoying Program to Program Communication Logins! % Runs fine in an SE sized screen with only 200k of memory! -Robustness % Runs great when it's not the foreground application without hurting performance. % Supports up to 50 simultaneous users and up to 20 unprocessed messages % The scroll back buffer fills available memory then automatically purges itself as memory gets low -Fun % Supports private messages between users % Notifies of persons logging in and out % Super easy to use % Configurable Users Identities % If your the host it lets you kick off annoying users % Supports multiple appletalk zones Shareware: If you use this program for more then 30 days you are obligated to send me $20 + $10 for each additional user license which you wish to register at your current facility. If you do this I'll even send you a copy of EZChat that will let you password protect your chats. One user license entitles you to run this program (to load it into memory and execute it) on no more then ONE computer at the same time.

It's a HyperCard stack and uses some of the Rinaldi externals. Requires HyperCard 2 or later, the player is fine. When launched, it builds a zone list. Click a zone and it builds a list of servers with guest access enabled, then it builds a list of all volumes on those guest access servers. A single click on a volume in the list will mount that volume (very quickly). For determined surfers there is a Report feature that can (if you really want) write a text file containing a list of all files on all guest access servers in a given zone. You can also choose to just get a folder list, or just to go 1 level deep. (That's enough to get an idea of what's out there). You may also want to get hold of "AppleShare Control" which lets you turn off those pesky server welcome dialogs that some people enable. It's in comm/atlk/ on Info-Mac.

It tests the following operations: * Creating 100 files of 20KB each * Opening and closing 100 files. * Remove 100 files. * Write 3 MB to a file. * Read 3 MB from a file. * Lock and unlock 4000 records. * Read a directory containing 320 entries. * Print a 3 MB PostScript file to the selected printer. For faster networks (e.g. 100baseT) the size of the 3 MB file can be increased to 30MB. LanTest 2.5.0 adds an option for very fast networks (e.g. Gigabit EThernet) to increase the file size to 300MB. The utility can perform a mixture of these tests using a given number of times and display the timings as well as an average. All results are written into an ASCII logfile as well. The utility will count the number of concurrently running LanTest applications from the same settings document. As all benchmarks, the results must be interpreted carefully and all test parameters should be documented together with the results. Changes since version 2.0.1: * Added an option for very fast networks to increase the test file size to 300MB. #### BINHEX hellbeast-10a9.hqx **** From: robert_hess@macweek.com (Robert Hess) Subject: Hellbeast 1.0a9 Here's version 1.0a9 of my Hellbeast application, which monitors and logs activity on AppleShare servers and some versions of File Sharing.

It can be used to get information, send commands and send and exchange messages. FEATURES: * Commands/Requests: A number of pre-set commands and requests are available from the Command and Request menus, or you can write your own in HyperTalk and send them. * Instant Connection Buttons: Once a connection has been made to a remote Mac, this connection can be saved as a button. Thereafter, just clicking on this button will re-establish the connection. * Auto-Launch: When you attempt to make a connection to another Mac, HyperXchange first determines whether or not HyperCard is running. If not, it can actually link to the remote Mac's Finder (Systems 7.0 - 7.1, thanks to the XCMD "FinderEvents") to launch HyperCard for you. * Broadcast Messages: A single message can be sent to a number of Macs in quick succession. Options are: "Only if..." (only send to a recipient if a certain condition is met), "Beep" and "Switch to HyperCard". * Chat: Based loosely on the "Conversing" card of Apple's Apple Event Primer Stack. * On-line Help Jonathan Cooper Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney Australia #### BINHEX intercom-hc.hqx **** From: cindy@halcyon.com (Cindy M. Carney) Subject: Intercom! Intercom! is a "poor man's" voice intercom, usable by any machine that is capable of running HyperCard 2.1. It offers "near real-time" text AND voice communications, for those with older Macintoshes that don't have AV capability. It allows people to send voice and/or text messages over an Appletalk network, by recording a sound in HyperCard, saving it to a file, and copying the file over the network. When it hits its destination, the file is automatically opened, and the sound automatically played. This creates a "near real-time" environment, that is quite acceptable for those with lower-end Macintoshes. -- Cindy M.

The accumulated data can be displayed in Finder-like list and icon views. The icon view is a MacDraw-like drawing environment in which you can use the network information plus drawing tools to create network diagrams with sticky object links. LanSatellite runs native on 68K and PowerPC. It is shareware $20. What's New in 2.0b6 - The list view uses the text label color assigned to each object. - You can set the font and size of the list view (from the Object menu). - Added a command to auto-resize the column widths to fit the data. - Keyboard navigation like the Finder is implemented in list and icon views: - Type the first part of a node's name to select it. - Tab and shift-tab move forward and backward alphabetically. - Arrows move the selection, shift-arrow extends it in the list view. - Command-right-arrow expands the selected items, command-left-arrow collapses them. - Object dragging is constrained to the drawing area. - You are warned if you make a Page Setup or Drawing Setup change that leaves objects off the page. - You are warned if you resize an object down to nothing. - Added a Zoom 100% command. - Moved the Show Page Breaks toggle out of the Drawing Setup dialog and onto the View menu, and it is now available for the list view as well as the icon view. - Fixed a drawing bug where the link endpoint coordinates were sometimes not recalculated when an object's size changed. - Implemented the Mercutio 1.2 MDEF and some new menu command keys. - Now using CodeWarrior 8 and MacApp 3.3 final. #### BINHEX lan-test-11.hqx **** Date: Wed, 13 Jul 1994 18:36:43 +0200 From: jum@helios.de (Jens-Uwe Mager) Subject: LanTest 1.1 - File Server Performance Evaluation Tool LanTest is an utility designed to test file server performance in a Macintosh environment.

Brown) Subject: MacPing 3.0 DEMO MacPing tests how well your AppleTalk or IP (Internet Protocol) network carries data packets. Just as a sonar or radar system sends a signal and waits for the echo, MacPing sends "probe" packets and waits for responses from the various devices connected to that network. If all the responses return, then your network is probably working well. If a few (or many) responses are lost, MacPing can help you diagnose what's wrong. MacPing differs from other network testing programs in that it tests in parallel all the devices on a particular AppleTalk network or zone, or devices in a range of IP addresses. This allows you to compare the responses of different devices on the same network to determine the cause of network problems. Note that MacPing will not flood the network with packets: it sends only one packet into the network at any time. For more information about running MacPing, read the Quick Tutorial section in the Help window. Read the Troubleshooting Networks help text to learn more about ways to use MacPing to isolate problems. Requirements MacPing requires at least a Macintosh Plus computer, running System 6.0.5 or newer. It also requires a network connection, either LocalTalk, EtherTalk, or dial-up connections such as Apple Remote Access (ARA), Shiva Dial-In, or others. MacPing is compatible with System 7.0 and works with both Phase I and Phase II AppleTalk software. If you wish to test IP devices, you must also install MacTCP 2.0.4 or newer. This demonstration version of MacPing will run for thirty days after it is first run. It is also limited to testing a maximum of 5 zones. Otherwise, it has all the capabilities of the full MacPing versions.

Metricom radios are channel-hopping spread-spectrum packet radio devices that operate in the 902-928MHz band. They have a peak throughput of 100kbit/sec. With a clear line-of-sight path they can have a range of several miles but in built-up areas about half a mile is more typical. In the San Francisco Bay area, and on a few University campuses, Metricom has installed pole-top repeaters that forward the packets, giving them effectively unlimited range in those areas.

Robin Jackson #### BINHEX netlink-remote-105b4.hqx **** From: (Joe Kloss) axly@deltaNet.com Subject: NetLink Remote 1.0.5b4 ( An ARA alternative ) What is NetLink Remote? NetLink Remote is a network extension that allows you to use AppleTalk over a modem. When you connect with NetLink Remote, you can do anthing that is possible when on a local AppleTalk network. You can use AppleShare to work with remote files, play AppleTalk only games like Marathon and F/A-18 Hornet, or use any other software that supports AppleTalk networking. NetLink Remote was written as an alternative to Apple's ARA software which was too expensive for most individuals and too slow for demanding games like Marathon. NetLink Remote's high speed modem protocol has been optimized for realtime games and in most cases is much faster than the built in modem support provided by some games. NetLink is also great for managing files on a remote system. Using AppleShare, the remote volume can show up on your desktop and be used like a local drive. Features * Remote AppleTalk access * High speed modem protocol optimized for realtime games * Background autoanswer capability * Customizable modem settings for optimum performance * Supports AppleGuide online help System Requirements * System 7.0 or later * Supports Open Transport 1.0.8 or later (1.1 or later highly recommended ) * 2400 bps modem, 14400 bps or faster modem required for realtime games * High speed modem cable * 68020, 68030, 68040, or PowerPC Processor * 300 KB of disk space * SerialDMA 2.0.2 or System 7.5 Update 2.0 Recommended for Power Mac or AV machines. #### BINHEX network-chatter-hc.hqx **** From: signage@best.com Subject: Network Chatter Network Chatter is a HyperCard stack or file that allows you to real time chat wiyh people across your LAN network.

Without PowerShare, System 7 File Sharing defaults to 50% of the CPU time allocated to File Sharing. PowerShare allows you to allocate anywhere from 10% to 100% of the CPU time for File Sharing. Once you use PowerShare to change this setting, it will stay at the new setting ... even if the computer is shut down and rebooted. By allowing you to set a higher CPU allocation for File Sharing, PowerShare can greatly improve the performance of File Sharing. If you are using File Sharing, you need PowerShare to get the maximum performance. If you need a fast server for a small network, with PowerShare, System 7 File Sharing can compete with AppleShare's performance. #### BINHEX quick-agent-20-demo.hqx **** Date: Thu, 1 Jun 1995 17:53:24 -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 To: macgifts@sumex-aim.stanford.edu From: stepup@onramp.net (Jeff Benjamin, StepUp Software) Subject: QuickAgent Demo 2.0.

This application creates documents which, when double-clicked, quickly log you into an AppleShare server. The documents store an alias to the server and your username and password. (The password is encrypted). To create a new document, open just the ServerMounter application (ie: don't open a document), drag the icon of the server you want to store into the document window, (you'll see the machine, volume, and zone appear), enter your username and password, and save the document. To use a document, just double-click the document. If ServerMounter is launched by opening a document it will quickly log you in and then quit itself. The app works by resolving an alias to the server and poking the required keystrokes into the event queue to type the password and username in the log-in dialog. So, it's a bit of a "hack" and I know that in some situations, background processes and extensions can defeat this scheme by gobbling my keystrokes. Requires 68020 or better and a system with drag & drop. Anyway, hope you like it, I find it saves me time. ServerMounter is free, but I'd like you to contact me for permission to include it in collections that people pay for.

It is intended to be used in a public lab environment, where users often mess around with the date and time settings of the Macintosh clock. SetDateTime can run on the users' Macs when they start their Macs if it is made a startup application. On Macs running System 7, you can drop it in the Startup Items folder inside the System Folder. SetDateTime does a Guest login (or optionally a name and password login) to the file server, gets the server's date and time, and sets the Mac's clock to it. #### BINHEX sibling-rivalry-201.hqx **** From: (Matt Slot) fprefect@umich.edu Subject: Sibling Rivalry 2.01 - Another "The Chooser Sux" Program How often do you use the Chooser to connect to an AppleShare server volume, and then realize that you need another volume on that same server? Often if you mount one volume, you will want to mount the related volumes at some time. Enter Sibling Rivalry. After it is installed, you can Command-Click on the Finder icon for an AppleShare server volume (not an alias) and a popup menu will appear that lists the other volumes on that server (it's "siblings"). If you select the name of a sibling from the menu, Sibling Rivalry will automatically mount that volume on your computer. Notes: * Sibling Rivalry has no interface... it takes up no space on your screen, since it only appears after you specifically invoke it. * You can mount *every* sibling on a server by adding the Option key to the Command-Click sequence, and selecting "All Volumes". * Its FAT software (both 68K and PPC native). * Requires System 7.0 or later and the Finder Scripting Extension. FSE comes bundled with AppleScript 1.1, with System 7.5.x, or standalone at: http://www.info.apple.com/Apple.Support.Area/Apple.Software.Updates/ US/Macintosh/System/Other_System/Finder_Scripting_Ext1.2.sea.hqx Changes from 2.0 to 2.01: * Fixed crashing bug under 7.5.3 and certain other 7.5.x systems. * General code cleanup.

There are a number of reasons that you might want to do this. Peter Lewis's FTPd communicates with the file system by using the Apple Filing Protocol, as provided by AppleShare and by System 7's Personal File Sharing. The file server that FTPd communicates with can be anywhere on the AppleTalk network, but most people run FTPd and Personal File Sharing on the same Mac. If you turn the AppleTalk software off in the Chooser just because your (Internet-connected) Mac is not connected to any AppleTalk network, then Personal File Sharing and FTPd won't be able to work -- they won't be able to communicate with each other. If you turn AppleTalk on in the Chooser, then the Mac requires you to have LocalTalk (or some other physical interface) active. There are a number of reasons that requiring LocalTalk is a bad idea. For a start, it ties up the Printer port on your Mac. A lot of new Macs (like Duos and the 500 series PowerBooks) only have one serial port, making this especially undesirable. If your Internet connection is through a modem (using SLIP or PPP), then turning on LocalTalk on the Printer port leaves you nowhere to plug in your modem. Also, on PowerBooks, powering the LocalTalk hardware consumes battery power, which is pointless if you not actually connected to anyone else. Another program that uses AppleTalk for communication is Bolo. You can run two copies of Bolo on the same Mac to play against a "Brain", but you need AppleTalk on. Instead of a switch in the Chooser to turn the network software on and off, Apple should have made the AppleTalk software always on, and provided controls to turn each network interface on and off. That's the idea behind SingleTalk. It allows you to keep AppleTalk turned on without needing to have your LocalTalk interface (or any other physical interface) active. SingleTalk is freeware. For further details see the enclosed ReadMe file. You should never have any reason to turn AppleTalk off again. Version 1.1 of SingleTalk uses a different id number to avoid a conflict with "IP Remote A/Talk". #### BINHEX snap-mail-101-demo.hqx **** From: kkirksey@world.std.com (Ken B Kirksey) Subject: SnapMail 1.01 Demo Date: Mon, 14 Mar 1994 19:11:52 -0500 Demo version of Casady&Greene's SnapMail, a superb and simple little e-mail program.

Introduction: Talk&Mail is an AppleTalk communication program for Macintosh. It is simple, easy to use, but has more powerful features than those known to the Unix world. One can initiate communication request from local macintosh with anyone on a remote macintosh running Talk&Mail program, as long as two macintoshes are connected on "AppleTalk Internet". The formidably-sounded "AppleTalk Internet" can be as simple as two macintoshes connected via a single wire (through their modem or printer port), or as extended as thousands of macintoshes connected via ethernet backbone on multi-network, multi-zone extended network (like on university campus or in big corporations). Talk&Mail uses peer-to-peer, two way duplex communication channel, so there is no complicated server to set up. A user only need to take a copy of Talk&Mail, launch it, select a user name so other users on the network can identify him/her, and one is ready to initiate or receive communication services provided by Talk&Mail program. II. Using Talk & Mail: When Talk & Mail starts up, it provides a dialog box for user to enter user name which identifies you (your macintosh) on the network, other macintoshes running Talk & Mail will be able to see your user name on their user list under your macintosh network zone. You can put Talk & Mail in the background so that it will be watching for communication request initiated by other users on the AppleTalk network running Talk & Mail, you will be notified in case there are Talk request or Notification or email/file sent to you by a remote user. If you like to initiate a communication service with a remote user, turn the Talk & Mail to the foreground and use the menus to initiate request: % Talk: Select this menu item to initiate conversation with another macintosh on the network. You will get a list of Mac zones (AppleTalk networks, especially large ones, are usually divided into multiple sub-networks called zones, under each zone, there are list of macintoshes). The zone that your macintosh resides on will be automatically selected. Choose a zone in which the remote user you like to talk to resides (double click on the item), you will get a list of user names which macintoshes are running Talk & Mail. Select the one you want to talk to, a conversation request will be sent to the remote macintosh (which must have Talk & Mail running). The remote user will get notified of your conversation request, he/she has the options of accepting or denying of your request. If remote user accepts your request, a communication channel will be set up, you and the remote user will have two windows pop up on the respective macintosh screens, which allow you to type in your words at the same time read his/her words. There are list of buttons which functions are self explainary. % Note: Note allows you to send a text of notice to a remote user running Talk & Mail. It's a quick way of sending information to the remote user without the disruption of initiating a conversation by using Talk. The notification text will be sent to the remote user and a modal dialog will pop up on the remote macintosh which contains the text and the sender information. % Mail: Mail is the least disruptive of all. You can sent a email to the remote user running Talk & Mail, the mail will be automatically received and storied in the remote user mailbox. % Ship: Ship is the function that lets you send a file (any file type, whether it's a data file or a macintosh application) over AppleTalk network to the remote user. It's more convenient than Apple file sharing service since there's no file sharing set up and disk mounting to do in order to send the file. % Change Username: This lets you change your user name which will appear on other macintoshes running Talk & Mail. % Don't Interrupt: This lets you specify no-interrupt period which the Talk & Mail running on your macintosh (usually in background) will automatically reject conversation request from other users without interrupting what you are doing. The remote user will get notified of the fact that you are not in the conversation mood and get auto rejected, so there wonUt be any bad feelings. % Help: Provides this on-line help. % Cut, Copy, Paste, Clear: Talk & Mail has a built in text editor to edit the mail or notification text. These functions are the same as the ordinary text editing functions. % Close: Close current window. % Quit: Quit Talk & Mail. Your user name will disappear from the user lists of other users running Talk & Mail, so thereUs no way other users can initiate any communication services with you until the next time you restart Talk & Mail. ItUs recommended that you put Talk & Mail or its alias in the RStartup ItemsS folder in the RSystemS folder, so that it will automatically be started every time you turn on your macintosh. III. Registration: The single copy license is $20 for Talk&Mail, two copy licenses is $35 (you need two separate licenses for two macintosh to communicate via Talk&Mail in full operating mode). Multi-license and site-license are available and rates are negotiable. The program took me lots of time and effort, I would sincerely appreciate if you support it by registering. IV. About the Author's Other Software: Besides Talk&Mail, I have developed two other Mac software: SpaceInvader! (video game), and PianoSim II (piano simulation program). These programs are also available on CompuServe, American On-line, and carried by several shareware distribution companies. They are also available on Internet via anonymous FTP from: sumex-aim.stanford.edu, or mac.archive.umich.edu. Any suggestions or bug reports are welcome.

Talker runs in the background and performs much like a speaker phone, allowing people to work in other applications while having hands-free, voice communication simultaneously. The price is $49.95 per copy and may purchased directly from 2 Way Computing at any of the numbers listed. Requirements: Macintosh LocalTalk (lightly loaded) or EtherTalk. Talker also supports third party microphones such as MacRecorder. Minimum memory required 500K. Macintosh Plus and Original Macintosh do not have sufficient performance to run this program. The following machines do not allow full-duplex communication: LC, LC II, II vx, Performa 400, Performa 600. 2 Way Computing, Inc. is located at 4370 La Jolla Village Dr. Suite 400, San Diego, CA 92122.

It works with the Cayman GatorCard,3COM, and Apple Ethernet cards. It does not appear to work on either a Mac Plus or a Mac SE. It has been used most on Mac II's and the SE/30. There is no documentation for Watch nor is it a supported product. Use it at your own risk. It is freely distributed but Cayman Systems, Inc. still maintains a copyright on it. If you have any bugs to report, please feel free to send email to support@cayman.com. #### BINHEX wax-cups-100.hqx **** From: Ben Chess Subject: Waxcups 1.0 - Voice communication over Appletalk Waxcups is a small, easy-to-use program that allows you to talk, using your Mac's microphone, to other people on your Appletalk network.

Ramer) Subject: whosthere.sit.hqx # RDEV & Source Who's There WHAT: This 'RDEV' was developed to use as an aid to finding / reporting network entities that use Name Binding Protocol (NBP). It allows selection of any NBP entity via the Chooser. It reports the NBP info and the network information (network, address,socket). I use it to look around. HOW: Put Who's There into your System Folder. Get the Chooser DA. Select the Who's There icon. Find an item in the list of devices and select it. Click the mouse to close the window. A nice addition to this might be to do Echo's, but I haven't the time. The MPW source/makefile is included in this archive. Enjoy. ________________________________________________ Kevin W.
