Hello my furry friends, It is I, keeper of the Simple Machine(s). We had a short power outtage the other night. Perhaps that was actually noticed by someone out in gopherspace, though I doubt it.

I don't know what might be Jumpy J's problem other than perhaps Windozes doesn't like the NAT router moving port 70 to a higher, non-privileged port. The server, gopherd_BSD, isn't very feature-full and of course not widely tested, hence the "Beta" on the root index page. The only issue I've noticed, which I've mentioned before, is that UMN gopher seems to truncate some pages, ie. you'll get maybe 85% of a text page. Reloading doesn't seem to help. The lynx browser (on NetBSD) works fine as does Firefox (also on NetBSD). I'd appreciate any feedback for other client/plateform combos of course.

Eventually I'll probably get tired of gopherd_BSD and install something more mainstream like Bucktooth or PYGopherd. Eventually.

Have a hot summer, -Jeff
