The fifth annual Warpstock event, which will be held October 6-8 in Toronto, promises to be the biggest and best OS/2ÿ event ever.

After months of work, the GA release of ZxMail Server is here.

NETBIOS LAN/DOS Session bug in MCP and eCS

There is a NETBIOS LAN/DOS session bug in MCP, eCS, and, under certain circumstances, in Warp 4 FP 15. The effect of this bug is to raise the chance of data corruption for people using DOS applications on an OS/2 network to 'almost certain'.

IBM has now successfully reproduced the bug. I have been informed that this bug will =not= be addressed in the upcoming release of fixpack 1 for MCP.

Since this problem can impact many, [and since I have been receiving many questions on it since reporting it], I have set up a web page with detailed information on the bug. The web page also contains information on subscribing to a mailing list to discuss the bug and coordinate efforts to develop some sort of workaround until and if IBM fixes the problem.

Back Again/2000 Server Scheduler Initialization 0.0.01

The backup program Back Again/2000 Server 2.10d has an WPS integrated scheduler which seems to be a subclass of the WPFolder class. Although there is a problem: At system startup this scheduler does not initialize which means that no backups will be started. SchedAdd will cure this.

It has been uploaded to Hobbes:
