NetPlex/!Netplex/SocketFS/Bugs

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

SocketFS Bug List
=================

6. We get random hangs when using FS_Entry GBPB. *?
      I'm not seeing this any more, although I'm not aware of
      any that I've done anything to fix it. (Unless it was an artifact
      of a partially corrupt SVC stack!. If you see this can you report it!
8. socket_open ought to return errors other than file not found if appropiate
9. socket_open contains ioctl(s,FIOSLEEPTW,&one) - not tested under acorn
      internet 5.xx

Next bug is:- bug no 11
