F1 disk1 F5 BSD F1 BSD F5 disk2 etc, etc. eventually dos boots if you bang on enough F keys ... what's my problem (or BOOT.FLP's problem ...) also, i need to set up BSD as a TCP/IP server running an SNMP manager. i will need to have a manager/agent setup to work a UDP/IP/SNMP (CMU code) embedded system into. any help appreciated. i've been a hacker for 15 years, but i'm a little lost in this network stuff. any configuration that would allow a working SNMP testbed that would be easy to play with is best. is it possible to do with null modem cables so i could intercept frames and check them out?
