My CDROM just came in yesterday -- and my first instinct was to compare all the files on the CDROM with the files that I downloaded from ftp.cdrom.com a while back -- and all were identical (including the files posted here a while back).. Could it be the method you used to read the files, rather than the files themselves? I used a SparcStation 2 running 4.1.3.. My CDROM is labeled '4.4BSD-Lite Berkeley Software Distribution', with CDRM1195000 inscribed on the side.
