     2.7 Hungary

     Hungary is connected  to EARN  by a  9.6 kbit/s  IP line  between
Budapest  and  Linz (Austria).   For the time  being the same line  is
used also for  the Internet and  EUnet connection.   It is planned  to
upgrade this  line
 to  64 kbit/s  in 1992.   The  High Energy  Physics
community has access to HEPnet services  via a 9.6 kbit/s leased  line
between Budapest and CERN, Geneva  (Switzer
land) which is now  running
IP.

(Note from RB, I believe the Internet connection out of Budapest has
also been transferred from Linz to Vienna.  Also many Internet addresses
in Budapest originate within the <uni-wien.ac.at> domain.)

     Hungary has a good  operational public X25  network which is  the
base of  Wide  Area Networking  between small and medium sized  sites.
Currently there are about  250 X.25 access points  in the country. A
high speed national IP backbone (called HBONE) will come into production
in  1993 to provide a country wide IP connectivity and access to EBONE
services.

     In Hungary a  national program under  the title "R&D  Information
Infrastructure  Program  (IIF)"  is  responsible for the research net-
working.  The "HUNGARNET"  co-ordinates the networking  activities  of
different  user groups,  such  as  "HUNINET" (Universities  and   high
schools),  "AKANET"   (academic   research institutes),  and the  user
group of  public collections  (libraries, museums),  meanwhile part of
the funding goes through IIF.

     2.8 Poland

     The main external  connection consists of  a 64 kbit/s  satellite
link between
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 2                    2 Jan 1994


 Warsaw and Stockholm, Sweden.  The link is an IP one and
carries all Internet, EARN  and  EUnet traffic. A new 64 kbit/s IP link
is being set up between Warsaw and Vienna wit
h the objective to establish
an Ebone Bondary System in Warsaw. A 9.6 kbit/s IP connection is in place
between  Krakow and  CERN  in Geneva, Switzerland for HEPnet services.

     Public  X.25 services have only started in 1992. Thus connections
at national level can  only be implemented on switched  or leased lines.
The country already has an infrastructure of leased lines, shared
between EARN and IP  traffic operting at speeds between 9.6-64 kbit/s.

     The Polish network is coordinated by an organization called  NASK
(National Academic  and  Research  Network) which  also  includes  the
Polish part of EARN. Realistic plans exist to substantially  extend IP
connectivity over the territory in 1992 using 64 kbit/s lines on their
national backbones wherever possible and economically viable. A National
Network  Operation and Monitoring Center has been set up in early 1992
which  operates the whole national and international infrastructure. A
system of network user training and support has also been put in
place.

     2.9 Romania

     International connectivity is now provided by a switched X25 link
to EARN in Austria.  A  9.6 kbit/s leased line is planned before the end
of 1992 between Bucharest and Linz, Austria.  This line will be able to
carry  both IP  and EARN/NJE/B
SC traffic.

     Romania has poor internal networking infrastructure. A government
project  of  building  a  public  X25  network  is   under commercial
negotiations and  should sta
rt  to offer  some services  in 1993.

     In  Romania  the  emerging  networking  activities  seem  to   be
coordinated by the National Council for Informatics and the Polytechnic
Institute of Bucharest.

     2.10 Slovenia

     Slovenia is  connected  over a  64  kbit/s IXI  access  point  in
Ljubljana to the IXI  backbone.  Over this  connection an IP link  via
NIKHEF, Amsterdam  (Netherlands) provides  Internet connectivity.    A
PSDN X25  connection connects  the  main EUnet  node in  Ljubljana  to
EUnet.  Another IXI access point, also located in Ljubljana,  connects
Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina to IXI over the JUPAK PPSDN.

      Currently Slovenia  have achieved a well spread-out branching
of their national networks due to the existence of a wide spread public
X.25 network. There exists as well a developed X.400 service.

In Slovenia the Academic and  Research Network of Slovenia (ARNES)
is coordinating network activities. In Croatia the coordinating
organization is CARNet and both organizations cooperate.

     2.11 Serbia and Montenegro

     Serbia has had a 9.6 kbit/s leased line between Beograd and Linz
to carry EARN traffic.  Currently this line is cut after a decision by
the Austrian government to cooperate with the UN embargo on Yugoslavia.

(Note from RB: Because of those same UN sa
nctions and the US Government's
support of those sanctions, it is illegal under federal law to have
commercial contacts with Yugoslavia.)



     2.12 Macedonia

     The University of Skopje, Mace
donia recently was made the lead
organization for the country by the Ministry for Science and Technology
for inaugurating networking activities in the country.  They joined CEED
and are planning soon an IP connection.

      Currently Macedonia  has achieved  a good  degree of capillarity
of their national network (DECNET) due to the existence of the public
X.25 network, which is a part of JUPAK PPSDN.

     3. Evolution

     All the ECE countries are very interested in European as well  as
world  wide  IP connectivity.   In Czechoslovakia, Hungary and  Poland
there has been rapid growth of connected IP networks and hosts in  the
academic  community.    Their  existing  international  leased   lines
infrastructure is now shared by EARN, EUnet and raw IP services.  Linz
University and ACONET  in  Austria  have become important concentrating
points for networking in Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia,  Hungary as well as
Poland and Romania.

     The  financial  resources  dedicated   to  networking  in   these
countries are limited.  The sharing of the existing national and
international leased lines between EARN, EUnet and other IP traffic as
well as between academic and starting commercial traffic is thus a very
important issue. Lightweight but robust IP gateway solutions (over
dial-up lines, leased serial lines or X25 networks) are of great concern
in this respect  and are continuously studied and further developed
(e.g. COPERNICUS).

     By the end of this  year the Budapest-ACONET  link at least will
be operating at 64  kbit/s.  It is probable that new  IP lines w
ill be
operational at this  time (Bratislava-Vienna, Moscow-Amsterdam).

     At the same time the national infrastructure of the countries will
continue to evolve.  We can expect an increase in national cove
rage in
countries with working public X25  networks and in Czechoslovakia and
Poland as well as strong increase in IP connectivity within the CIS.


     4. International Initiatives

     Several international support initiatives  have been launched  in
the  past  by  different  bodies  to  improve  international   network
connectivity  of  the  Central and  Eastern European countries.   The
following list presents some of them :

     The Ebone 92 consortium has shown itself very supportive during
1992 by  allowing traffic of ECE countries to pass freely over the Ebone
and letting so the ECE countries traffic cross Europe. This situation
changes in 1993 when Ebone will adopt a more formal financial model.

     RIPE and the RIPE NCC have widely  contributed to the rapid
integration of new ECE networks into the global Internet. RIPE has acted
to initiate a common coordination effort of academic networking
organizations in Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland.  The first
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 5                    2 Jan 1994


meeting to coordinate its initiatives was held in February, 1992 in
Prague with successful cooperation since then, continued at the 3rd Joint
European Networking Conference in Innsbruck, where RARE has proposed to
be the coordinator of ECE integration into European Academic
networking, formalized in Prague in August, 1992. CEEC@RARE.NL is now
the discussion group and has the mailing list on common ECE networking
issues.

     Also both EARN and EUnet have widely contributed to the successful
start of international networking in ECE countries, by placing the first
network nodes in these countries, supporting the activity of these nodes
both financially and through extensive know-how transfer.

     Despite this expressed willingness to cooperate (RARE, RIPE, EARN,
EUnet etc.) some support efforts are still not coordinated, whic

sometimes leads to the waste of limited resources.  An EC SHARE project
dedicated  to extend  the former COSINE  IXI project to  Bulgaria,
Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and  Romania has started this year.
Medium
 speed 64 kbit/s lines have been ordered between
Amsterdam-Prague-Budapest-Bern and between Aarhus-Warsaw-Bern. These
lines, initially financed by the EC, should provide connectivity from ECE
countries to the planned European Multiprotocol Backbone (EMPB).  It
should also provide access points to X.25 as well as IP services.
Unfortunately the coordination with RIPE and Ebone as well as with the
academic networking organizations in the countries involved has to date
experienced poor results in eliminating redundancy in the use of scarce
infrastructural resources in ECE countries.

     Austria is the major relay point between ECE countries and Western
Europe (and beyond).  The Austrian  government is very supportive and
either covers fully or contributes in a significant manner to the costs
of international connections to these countries.  In February 1992 ACONET
has made an even greater proposal, offering  these countries (Bulgaria,
Czechoslovakia, Hungary  and  Poland)  double  connectivity to both
Vienna and  Linz. Each of these  countries should  have one  link to
both places,  thus permitting line backup.   The Vienna-CERN line has
been upgraded in October 1992 to 256 kbit/s and the Linz-CERN line (64
kbit/s) is being replaced by a Linz-Amsterdam line (128 kbit/s) in order
to accomodate traffic increase from these countries and offer  a real
backed-up connectivity to Ebone. The ACONET proposal for Ebone 93 to
place  an EBS to Austria seems well justified from the point of view of
the connectivity of ECE countries.

     CERN plays also an important role  in the IP connectivity of  the
new countries.  It houses actually  a 9.6 kbit/s line from Krakow  and
another HEPnet  9.6  kbit/s  line  from Budapest.    Due  to  lack  of
resources CERN prefers not to house a lot of low rate lines from every
co
untry but rather to house  a higher rate line concentrating  traffic
from several countries.  This is  in fact in perfect conformance  with
the ACONET proposal.

     The German DFN network has launched several regio
nal  initiatives
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 6                    2 Jan 1994


to  connect  sites   in  geographical  proximity   of  Germany   (e.g.
Dreilaendereck  project connecting Liberec in Czechoslovakia,  Wroclaw
in Poland and Zittau in Germany  using leased links based on X25  with
further connectivity to DFN). DFN also provides X400/SMTP gateway for
Slovenia.

     The Italian government has financed in 1990 and 1992  successfull
network workshops  (NetSchool) to  which  about 50 network specialists
from  ECE  countries  have  attended.   A  second extended edition  of
NetSchool has taken place in April 1992  with participation of network
specialists  from  RIPE  and  attendees from ECE countries, some South
American, Asian and African countries.

     A similar event has been organized by NORDUnet for network  users
and operators from the Baltic states.

     The French government has expressed  its willingness to help  the
integration  of new  countries to the world of academic networking  by
launching in  cooperation with  INRIA  a project  called  Copernicus,
which aims to  improve network connectivity  of several Eastern
European Countries.  One of the first results of this project has been
the cooperation on design and implementation  of the academic IP
backbone CESNET-SANET (Prague - Brno - Bratislava  ... Banska Bystrica
- Kosice) in Czechoslovakia.  The project consists of transfer of
network management and administration know-how, common development of
tools and some software and hardware donations.   Similar activity is
starting now with Romania.

     IBM  is  also  present  in  these  countries  with  its  academic
initiative, in   which   IBM   mainframes   have   been   offered   to
Czechoslovakia, Hungary  and Poland.    IBM and  EASInet act  also  as
sponsors  for  the  T1  US   link  usage  for  academic  networks   in
Czechoslov
akia, Hungary, Poland and Slovenia.

     Strong support for the integration of ECE countires into the global
network also comes from the United States.  The National Science
Foundation has always been very supportive to
 academic networks in ECE
countries by promptly helping them to solve global connectivity problems.
Many projects aiming at improving local, national, and international
infrastructure, know-how transfer and mission-oriented network
applications are now in progress.

(Note from RB: Steven Goldstein <goldstein@nsf.gov> Internet or <goldstei
@nsf> BITNET, is the contact at NSF.  He contributes to many of the East
European discussion groups.)

     The assistance of countries  with developed networking  shouldn't
be uniquely oriented to basic network connectivity.  A lot of work needs
to be done  in the  ECE countries to  offer and  improve higher  level
network services like e-mail, teleconferencing, archive services,
online  databases  and  library catalogues  etc.,  as well  as  in
basic network concepts, user  information services  and advanced
networking know-how transfer.  That's why new EC projects proposals are
now  oriented not only on infrastructure but also on higher level
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 7                    2 Jan 1994


services (e-mail, electronic directory, user information and training.)
The lack of funds puts ECE countries at a disadvantage and the exchange
rates with the West still make it difficult for ECE network experts to
attend international networking exhibitions.


     5. Technical issues

     As already mentioned,  distributing international network  access
over the  local  territory  is  a  major  problem  for  the  countries
considered.  While it is relatively easy  and cheap to set up a  local
TCP/IP network, it is more  difficult to  connect it  to the  national
access point.  Generic  router solutions are  rather expensive on  one
side and not  completely free of  administrative exportation  problems
for all countries involved.

     The solution to these problems are software routers based on PC's
or workstati
ons and public domain or easily available software.

     A low cost capillarity of  networks being of great importance  to
ECE countries, good  dial-up IP solutions of both industrial and public
domains, which  are  under  st
udy  and  evaluation  in  EUnet,   RIPE,
Copernique, NetSchool and others, are of great interest as well as low
cost IP solutions on synchronous lines (X25 or PPP) and low cost
solutions for network monitoring and management.

    The technical speed limitations for international leased lines seem
now to become less restrictive than in the past. For Czechoslovakia,
Hungary and Poland, international links of up to 2 MBits/s are now
feasible.

    With basic connectivity problems for the most part overcome,
network services are now becomming major issues in the most advanced ECE
countries.  PC's remain the most spread technical basis, thus network
solutions based on platforms (routers, mail, news, archive and
information servers and clients) based on either UNIX or MS DOS are of
major concern today.


     6. Organizational issues

     The  starting  period  in   international  networking  is   often
characterized by a fuzziness in the organizational structure  together
with a lack  of information about  the people actually responsible and
working  in  the  area.    The  situation  is  nearly  stabilized   in
Croatia, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and Slovenia, where national
academic networking groups  have  been  founded   and  are coordinated
with   EARN/EUnet activities.  This  coordinated  effort  tends  to
build  nation  wide multiprotocol academic network infrastructures.  A
similar effort  is underway  in  Bulgaria  (UNIKOM,  EARN and  EUnet
Bulgaria). These countries seem also to have found a stabilized position
in international network organizations (EARN, EUnet, RARE, RIPE). The
situation is more complicated in other countries where international
contacts are for various reasons much more scarce.

3. GATEWAYUEBERGANG INTERNET ==> FIDONET
----------------------------------------

    Die Fidonet-Zieladresse wird direkt in die Internetzieladresse
    in folgender Form mitcodiert:

    p<Pointnummer>.f<Nodenummer>.n<Netznummer>.z<Zone>@gw1-x203.uibk.ac.at

    Beispiel:
    Netmail an Fidonetadresse 2:317/2.1
    Internetzieladresse = p1.f2.n317.z2@gw1-x203.uibk.ac.at

    Der Name des Empfaengers kann (falls vom jeweiligen Internetmailer
    unterstuetzt) in einem Kommentarstatment der Empfaengeradresse
    angegeben werden. (Kommentarstatements muessen generell zwischen
    zwei Klammern stehen).

    Beispiel:
    Netmail an Klaus Maier OF 2:317/2.0
    Internetzieladresse = p0.f2.n317.z2@gw1-x203.uibk.ac.at (Klaus Maier)

/ Kurzinfo zur Bedienung des FIDONET<>INTERNET GATEWAY-MANAGERS          /
/ FIDONET  2:317/6.0@fidonet.org                                         /
/ INTERNET GW1-X203.UIBK.AC.AT                                           /
/------------------------------------------------------------------------/

2:317/6.0 fungiert als FIDONET<>INTERNET gateway. Internetseitig ist dieses
Gateway dzt. unter GW1-X203.UIBK.AC.AT erreichbar. Der GATEWAY-MANAGER dient
dazu, um einen mailgesteuerte Mailboxdefinition am Gateway zu ermoeglichen.
Der GATEWAY-MANAGER ist NUR fidonetseitig ansprechbar.

Um den GATEWAY-MANAGER anzusprechen, muss man ein Fidonet-Netmail an
Name     : GATEMGR
Fido-Adr : 2:317/6
senden.

Kommandos an den GATEWAY-MANAGER muessen in der ersten Zeile des MSG-Bodies
stehen. Je Mail kann jeweils nur ein Kommando verarbeitet werden. Der Inhalt
der Subject-Zeile ist fuer den GATEWAY-MANAGER nicht von Bedeutung und wird
von diesem auch nicht bearbeitet.
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 11                   2 Jan 1994


Saemtliche Mails an den GATEWAY-MANAGER werden von diesem automatisch beant-
wortet. Bitte betrachten Sie saemtliche Kommandos erst dann als erfolgreich
abgeschlossen, wenn auch tatsaechlich die entsprechende positive Bestaetigung
bei Ihnen einlangt.

Die Benuetzung der FIDONET<>INTERNET Gateways ist nur nach der jeweils
gueltigen POLICY (zu requesten unter GATEWAY.INF bei 2:317/2) erlaubt.


Derzeit implementierte Kommandos:

ADDMBOX <MAILBOXNAME>

  Dieses Kommando dient dazu, um eine Intermetmailbox zu definieren.
  Saemtliche Mails an diese Internetmailbox werden in weiterer Folge
  automatisch an die entprechende Fidonetadresse (=Absenderadresse
  des Fido-Netmails an den GATEWAY-MANAGER) weitergeroutet.

  <MAILBOXNAME> muss ein String mit einer Laenge zwischen 5 und 8 Zeichen
  sein. Weiters darf <MAILBOXNAME> nur aus Zeichen und/oder Ziffern bestehen.
  Die Verwendung von Sonderzeichen ist nicht gestattet.


     Beispiel:

     Fidonetmail an: 2:317/6 GATEMGR
     Absenderadr : 2:812/12.12
     Absendername: Franz Maier

     1.Zeile der MSG:
     %ADDMBOX FMAIER

     In diesem Beispiel wird eine Internetmailbox mit FMAIER auf dem
     Internethost GW1-X203.UIBK.AC.AT generiert. Alle Internetmails mit
     der Bestimmungsadresse FMAIER@GW1-X203.UIBK.AC.AT werden in Zukunft
     automatisch ins Fidonet konvertiert und an 2:812/12.12 (Franz Maier)
     weitergeleitet.

     Beachten Sie bitte, dass der Domainteil der Adresse (GW1-X203.UIBK.AC.AT)
     fix ist.

  Da es aufgrund der Laengenbegrenzung von <MAILBOXNAME> durchaus zu
  Namensgleichheiten kommen kann, geben Sie Ihre Internet-Adresse bitte
  erst dann nach aussen bekannt, wenn auch tatsaechlich die positive
  Bestaetigung des GATEWAY-MANAGERS bei Ihnen eingelangt ist. Im Falle
  einer negativen Antwort des GATEWAY-MANAGERS versuchen Sie es einfach
  unter einem neuen/anderen <MAILBOXNAME>.

  Di Moeglichkeit, eine eigene, persoenliche Internetmailbox zu definieren
  ist als Zusatzfeature fuer dieses Internetgateway gedacht. Die bisher
  verwendete, "tansparente" Adressierungsart wird auch weiterhin unterstuetzt.

  Bitte definieren Sie nicht mehr als eine Internetmailbox je Benuzter.

DELMBOX <MAILBOXNAME>

                           Fidonet <-> Internet

Vazeni kolegove,

jisteho casu se zde (i na fidu) diskutovalo o problemech vymeny
elektronicke posty mezi sitemi Internet a Fidonet. Zde je tedy moje troska
do mlyna shrnuti postrehu a zkusenosti s touto problematikou. Samozrejme,
ze gatewaye a jejich adresace jsou jednoznacne definovane, nicmene i tak se
da zazit spousta legrace :-) ci spise :-(


1. SMER INTERNET => FIDONET
===========================

S timto smerem nejsou veskrze zadne problemy. Adresa prijemce na fidonetu
(v tomto pripade moje - Josef Jaluvka na uzlu 2:421/18.0) ma pruhledny
internetovsky tvar

    josef.jaluvka@p0.f18.n421.z2.fidonet.org

a zbytek je naprosto totozny s beznym posilanim posty po internetu.  Tusim,
ze nekde jsem zahledl, ze existuji i dalsi gatewaye mimo fidonet.org,
nicmene tento je uvaden jako stezejni ve vsech popisech, ktere mi kdy byly
k mani. Pokud by nekdo narazil na pripadny evropsky gateway bylo by to
jiste prinosem zejmena z casoveho hlediska prenosu posty.

Nasleduje jedna takova zprava zaslana z internetu od uzivatele
vabo@arwen.ics.muni.cs (tehdy jeste cs, nyni cz :-) do fidonetu.

Z datumu odeslani a prijeti zpravy je videt, ze doba potrebna k doruceni
je cca 4 dny.

Jediny zadrhel, ktery zde muze nastat je ten, ze prijemce na strane fida je
'obycejnym' BBS userem a nikoli uzlem ci pointem. V tomto pripade musi vas
sysop bud projevit ochotu a doslou postu (netmail) vam forwardnout do local
posty nebo vam zpristupnit inkriminovanou postovni oblast NetMail, coz ale
v zadnem pripade neni jeho povinnost!



2. SMER FIDONET => INTERNET
===========================

Prave s timto smerem byvaji spojeny nejvetsi potize. V dobe experimentovani
jsem byl prave na fidonetu onim obycejnym BBS userem, kteremu sysop uzlu
2:421/18 projevil dobrou vuli a zpristupnil na sve BBS netmail. Tehdy jsem
pro postu pouzival off-line reader Blue Wave, ktery umoznuje si z BBSky
stahnout balik nove posty, vklidu doma ji pak zpracovat a pri dalsim
prihlaseni se na BBS odeslat svoji novou postu.

Nicmene vysledek experimentovani uspech neprinesl. Bylo znamo, ze adresatem
musi byt Uucp a fidonet adresa gatewaye. Dale bylo znamo, ze mail musi mit
definovanou strukturu. Prvni radek mailu musi mit nasledujici tvar:

To: vabo@arwen.ics.muni.cz

t.j. adresata. Za timto radkem musi nasledovat prazdny radek. Vlastni text
zpravy tedy zacina od tretiho radku. I presto se mail vratil zpatky.

Vsechny formalni pozadavky byly dodrzeny a zahada byla jakz takz objasnena
po jednom forwardu zpravy od Postmastera, ktera se objevila na fidonetu.
Celkem nenapadne byla v textu ukryta veta, ve ktere stalo, ze nektere
mailery delaji neplechu a doplnuji jmena mezerou, coz gateway nepripousti.
Baliky Blue Wave readeru jsem nerozpitvaval, nicmene myslim, ze prave tohle
byla pricina problemu.

V posledni dobe jsem na fidonetu zprovoznil vlastni point 2:421/27.10
vyuzivajice Front Door mailer a k experimentovani s gatewayem se vratil.
Prvni pokus sice uspesny nebyl - adresoval jsem postu na americky gateway,
ktery nebyl pro Evropu urcen - nicmene dalsi pokusy jiz byly O.K. Gateway
uzly jsou ty, jez jsou ve fidonet nodelistu oznaceny priznakem GUUCP.
Prvni uspesny mail byl smerovan na americky gateway 1:105/42 a doba
potrebna k doruceni necelych 7 dnu:

  =========================================================================

  Welcome to the ninth 1993 issue of The Hack Report.  This is a series
  of reports that aim to help all users of files found on BBSs avoid
  fraudulent programs, and is presented as a free public service by the
  FidoNet International Shareware and Warnings Echos and the author of the
  report, Lee Jackson (FidoNet 1:124/4007).

  This has not been a very good month here at Hack Central Station:  not
  only was the report delayed by a week due to a back injury, but the
  August issue was the subject of a hack.  It isn't the first time, and it
  won't be the last.  Also, a file reported as a hoax last month has been
  reclassified as a Trojan, and many new pirated files surface.  Thanks to
  everyone who has helped put this report together, and to those that have
  sent in comments and suggestions.

  NOTE TO SYSOPS: The Hack Report may be freely posted as a bulletin on
  your BBS, subject to these conditions:

             1) the latest version is used,
             2) it is posted in its entirety, and
             3) it is not altered in any way.

  NOTE TO OTHER READERS: The Hack Report (file version) may be freely
  uploaded to any BBS, subject to the above conditions, and only if you do
  not change the filename.  You may convert the archive type as you wish,
  but please leave the filename in its original HACK????.* format.  The
  Hack Report may also be cross-posted in other networks (with the
  permission of the other network) as long as it meets the above conditions
  and you give appropriate credit to the FidoNet International Shareware
  and Warnings Echos (and the author <g>).

  The idea is to make this information available freely.  However, please
  don't cut out the disclaimers and other information if you use it, or
  confuse the issue by spreading the file under different names.  Thanks!

  DISCLAIMER: The listings of Official Versions are not a guarantee of the
  files' safety or fitness for use  Someone out there might just be
  sick-minded enough to upload a Trojan with an "official" file name, so
  >scan everything you download<!!!  The author of this report will not be
  responsible for any damage to any system caused by the programs listed as
  Official Versions, or by anything using the name of an Official Version.

  On this same note, programs and files listed in this report should not be
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 23                   2 Jan 1994


  automatically considered dangerous.  It is simply impossible for the
  author of this report to receive and test copies of every listed file, so
  many of the reports listed herein are based on information sent to the
  author by individuals in the BBS community.  For this reason, neither the
  author of this report nor anyone officially associated with it shall be
  held liable for any losses and/or damages resulting from a listing in
  this report.

  Finally, the releases listed as the latest Official Versions may not be
  entirely accurate.  However, they do reflect the latest version known to
  the author of The Hack Report at the time of writing.  That's the nature
  of the beast we call shareware:  authors have every right (and in this
  writer's opinion, are well advised) to release a new version without
  advance notice of any kind.  If you see a version newer than one listed
  here, please contact one of The HackWatchers or myself so that we can
  keep these listings up to date.

================================================================================


                           OS/2 a HRY!!!!!!!!!!!

RED BARON (Dynamix):

--this game runs fine, but two users observed that although RB's music
 played OK for them, the sound effects (such as guns and engine
 noise) were silent.  The cure for this is simply to run Red
 Baron's install program (with RB already installed) and choose
 the appropriate options again to make them take effect.
--Although I have had no problems runnin
g RB with my Soundblaster and
  with my Roland LAPC-1, another user noted the following:

   At least on my machine (486, 8 Megs and Soundblaster Pro) this program
   locks up if you set the sound option to Sound Blaster; however if
   you set the option to Adlib, you still get digitized sound and the
   program runs fine.
--this game will NOT run in a window.  You should run it in full screen
 mode only.


RINGWORLD:

--reported to run fine.


SCORCHED EARTH (ver. 1.1 and 1.2):

--reported to run fine, with the exception that the screen will get
   messed up if you switch away from the game and then back to it.
   The game has a screen redraw option that fixes it each time though.


SECRET OF THE SILVER BLADES:

--runs fine.


SECRET WEAPONS OF THE LUFTWAFFE:

--reported to run fine.


SHANGHAI II: DRAGON'S EYE:

--reported to run fine in a full-screen session.


SHERLOCK HOLMES (CD GAMES):

--one user said that this game (games?) could not be played under OS/2.

SIEGE:

--reported to run fine: be sure to set the HW_TIMER to ON.


SIMCITY:

--reported to run fine; if you want to run it in a window, be sure
 to turn MOUSE_EXCLUSIVE_ACCESS to ON.


SIMEARTH:

--reported to run fine by several users.


SOLITAIRE'S JOURNEY:

--one user reported that he had trouble getting the mouse cursor to
 work correctly under OS/2.  It would leave black blocks on the
 screen or extra mouse cursor images.


SPACE QUEST IV:

--runs fine, with the exception that some of the digitized sounds
 on the soundblaster may be cut short.  For example, I noticed
 that the lightning sounded fine when I was far away from it,
 but when I drew near the sound of the thunder would be cut
 short (this is on a 386/33 with Roland music and SB speech).
--one person emailed me and said that OS/2 comes with a fix for this
        game, called SQ4FIX.COM, but he didn't know what it did.
        [I haven't tried it myself yet.]


SPEAR OF DESTINY:

--one user emailed me to say that this game would just start and
   then hang the DOS box.


SPECTRE:

--re
orted to run fine.


SPELLCASTING 101 and 201:

--reported to run fine.


STAR CONTROL 2:

--one person said that this game causes intermittent crashes, and
   one crash even trashed his save file causing him to start over
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 28                   2 Jan 1994


   again.
--another person emailed me in response to what the person above said,
   and he said that he played and completed the game without any
   crashes or glitches; he said he had no sound board and set the
   battle to "Cyborg".


STAR TREK: 25th ANNIVERSARY:

--reported to run fine.


STELLAR 7:

--reported to run fine.  One user however could not get the game to
 run using his Soundblaster, and he was informed that Stellar 7
 is hard coded to use IRQ7 (which conflicts with OS/2's use of
 LPT1 at that IRQ).


STUNT ISLAND:

--three users reported problems trying to get this game to run under
   OS/2.  One of them said it hung on him during the intro; another
   said it would eventually crash while playing the game.  But another
   user responded with "I've played Stunt Island ALOT without it ever
   crashing."


STUNTS [Broderbund]:

--reported to run fine both full screen and windowed.


SUPER JEOPARDY:

--one person posted a message saying he had trouble with the timer in
   the game.  He set the clock for 20 minute rounds but they only
   lasted about 5 minutes.  [any other experiences?]


SVGA AIR WARRIOR:

--one user reported that this game will not run under OS/2 because
   it attempts to put the cpu in protected mode.


TASK FORCE 1942:

--reported to run fine.


TERMINATOR 2029:

--one user reported problems trying to get this game to run under OS/2.
   Another user was more explicit: it gave him an illegal instruction
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 29                   2 Jan 1994


   message when he tried to run it, and when he called Bethesda Soft-
   works the rep there said it would not run under OS/2.


TEST DRIVE 3:

--reported to run fine.


TRISTAN PINBALL:

--one person said that when he tries to run this game it randomly
   crashes, sometimes to the point of rebooting.


TUNNELS AND TROLLS:

--runs fine.


ULTIMAS 4 and 5:

--if you
 have trouble with the keydisks for these games being recognized,
  boot a real copy of DOS in a vdm (see VMDISK in the Command
 Reference for details).


ULTIMA 6:

--runs fine.


ULTIMA 7:

--this game will NOT run under OS/2 since it uses its own memory manager.
 No amount of tweaking will make it run, so don't waste your time.
 Instead, spend the time to write Origin and tell them to patch it!


ULTIMA UNDERWORLD:

--there is a patch that fixes many inventory bugs in this game.  Check
 comp.sys.ibm.pc.games for more details.
--this game will not run in a window since it will be distorted.
--the digitized intro speeches for this game will not work reliably
 under OS/2 with a Soundblaster; this is the only time in the
 game where there is digitized speech though.  To READ the
 intro speeches, configure the game for no sound (or PC speaker)
 and then run the intro.
--some people report no problems with this game, other people can't get
 it to run under OS/2 at all.  Most people are able to run the game
 if they start the game in one of the following two ways:

   1)  Set the game to start minimized with background execution OFF.
 Start the game and WAIT until all disk activity stops (about 10-15
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 30                   2 Jan 1994


 seconds on my 386/33).  Then switch to the game.  This works best
 for me, and allows me to switch back and forth from the game safely.
 I've never had the game crash on me doing it this way, and I've
 switched back and forth from my word processor hundreds and
 hundreds of times.
   2)  Set the game to start in a windowed DOS session.  The game will look
 garbled, but wait until you see the blue title screen come up.  Then
 switch the game to full screen mode with ALT-HOME.  If the keyboard
 doesn't respond after doing this, tap the ALT key to unstick it.


ULTIMA UNDERWORLD II:

--see "ULTIMA UNDERWORLD" above if you have problems starting/running
   this game.
--the new digitized sounds in this game will not work reliably under
   OS/2.  You will hear the sounds for 5-30 seconds or so, and
   then they'll stop.  Goin
 into the sound option in the game
   and turning the sound off and on will make them come back on
   again, but they won't stay on.  All the sound files are simple
   .voc files located in the \uw2\sound directory and may be
   heard with any .voc player.  Those with Roland cards will
   be able to hear the nondigitized versions of the sounds under
   OS/2 without problems.


V FOR VICTORY ("UTAH BEACH"):

--reported to run fine.


VELIKIYE LUKI:

--reported to run fine by two different people, one of whom said
   it ran fine on his 486 with Soundblaster Pro, while the other
   said it ran very fast even on his 386
--one user posted a message saying that he couldn't get it to run
   under OS/2 because it would generate an illegal instruction.


WAYNE GRETZKY HOCKEY 3:

--two people posted messages to say they could not get the game to
   run under OS/2.  [any other experiences?]


WELLTRIS:

--reported to run fine in a full screen session.

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CARMEN SAN DIEGO:

--reported to run fine.


WING COMMADER I-II (and SM1-2, SO1):

--these run fine, even with the speech pack.
--I have found that in WCII my soundblaster's digitized voices in
 battle often hang causing me to have to hit ESC to "unstick"
 them.  This happens only when there are lots of enemy ships
 in the area.  I have a 386/33; testing it on a 486/33 didn't
 exhibit this problem.


WINTREK (for Windows):

--one user reported that this game doesn't work under Win-OS2 because
 it requires Win 3.1.


WIZARDRY 7:

--reported to run fine, with the exception that the digitized sounds
   will give problems and cause the game to slow down to a crawl at
   points (several people have made this observation).  The only
   solution seems to be to disable the sound.  One person observed
   that you don't need the sound to enjoy the game; another person
   said he decided to just play it under plain DOS because he felt
   the digitized sounds added a lot.
--Sir-Tech and IBM have been talking over the pro
blem with the
   Soundblaster sound in the latest Wizardry game (Dark Savant).
   We called Sir-Tech's support line and were told that Sir-Tech
   is working on the problem and will send out information (possibly
   a patch?!) to people who call and request that their names be put
   on the mailing list...  So call Sir-Tech's tech support line at
   315-393-6644 (9-5 PM EST) and tell them you're running the game
   under OS/2 and you want it fixed!


WOLF3D:

[listed under "Castle Wolfenstein"]


WONDERLAND:

--runs fine.

--according to one user there were problems with this game.

               Jak spustit skutenou verzi DOSu z OS/2 2.1?

Start skuten verze DOSU pod OS/2 poskytuje urit sluby a skutenosti,
kter emulovn DOS loha neposkytne. Napklad, specifick DOS loha me
poskutnout pstup k zazenm (jako CDROM) a stm pro kter existuj pouze
DOS adie zazen. Specifick DOS verze me pomoci pro aplikace DOSu
zatvrzele vyrbjc "divide by zero" chyby pi optovnm sputn.

Je pochopiteln mon spustit pouze jednu skutenou DOS verzi na jedno
urit hardware zazen, proto pokud je ji nap. sputn MS DOS 6.2 pro
specifickou sovou kartu, nen mon spustit dal podobnou lohu k tomuto
zazen pistupujc.

Specifick DOS lohy jsou popsny v on-line "Command Reference" (pod heslem
VMDISK), v "Master Help Index", a v tistn "Installation Guide
(Appendix E)".  Je nutn se nejprve zamit na tyto zdrojje informac, ale
pokud si stle nejste jist jako konfigurovat v systm pro specifickou DOS
lohu, sta sledovat nsledujc kroky:

1. Vytvote startovatelnou DOS disketu. Vsunut DOS systmov diskety do
A: disku a nov start potae je nutn. Pot je nutn naformtovat DOS disketu
pro patin DOS cestou patinho DOSu. Zpravidla posta FORMAT A: /S pro
zskn startovateln diskety, ale v mnoha ppadech je vhodnj zajistit
disketu s co nejmen kapacitou pro sporu msta na disku pozdji. Nap.
5.25" disketa me bt formtovna na pouze 160KB. Po naformtovn diskety a
oven zda pracuje je nutn nastartovat zpt OS/2.

2. Zkoprujte FSFILTER.SYS na disketu. Nejlpe z OS/2 lohy sputn v okn
protoe dal innost se bude odehrvat z OS/2 okna. FSFILTER.SYS se nachz
v \OS2\MDOS\FSFILTER.SYS.

3. Nastavte CONFIG.SYS.  POuitm textovho editoru (nap E z OS/2 lohy)
vytvote A:\CONFIG.SYS s nsledujcm obsahem:

      DEVICE=A:\FSFILTER.SYS
      DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\HIMEM.SYS
      DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\EMM386.SYS
      DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\ANSI.SYS

Zmt "C:" na patin disk kde OS/2 je instalovno. Doplt jakkoliv
dal dky poadovan va aplikace (nap. CD-ROM adie) ale nezahrnujt
dn XMS, EMS, my i pamov adie (o ve se postar OS/2). Je nutn
ve mt uvedeno se sprvnou cestou i jmnen disku.

4. Nastavte AUTOEXEC.BAT.  Pouitm editoru vytvote soubor A:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
a na prvn dku umstt:

      C:\OS2\MDOS\MOUSE

zmnt "C:" pokud je nutn. Dodejte jakkoliv dal dky (PATH, SET
PROMPT, apod.) jak je poadovno va aplikac.

5. Vyzkouejte DOS disketu. Po vytvoen CONFIG.SYS a AUTOEXEC.BAT je mon
dvakrt uknout na OS/2 System -> Command Prompts -> DOS from Drive A:
DOS loha by se mla spustit, vyzkouejte si funknost (jako nap. pstup
k CDROM). Pokud ve pracuje sprvn, stisknt CTRL-ESC a zrute lohu,
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 37                   2 Jan 1994


a pokraujte krokem 5. Pokud nefunguje je nutn t zruit lohu, ale
nastavit sprvn CONFIG.SYS a AUTOEXEC.BAT.

6. Vytvote kopii diskety. V OS/2 loze je nutn spustit VMDISK pro vytvoen
image dan diskety. Nap. VMDISK A: C:\DOS62.IMG pro vytvoen souboru se
jmnem DOS62.IMG v C:\

7. Vytvote programov objekt pro specifickou DOS lohu. Vyzvednte programov
objjekt z Templates folderu a upuste jej do poadovanho folderu. Notebook
se oteve s jednou hvzdiou (*) v Program Name poli, stisknn ipku vpravo
vlevo dole. Vyberte si DOS WINDOW i DOS FULL SCREEN podle typu lohy.
uknte na DOS Settings tlatko a najdte DOS_STARTUP_DRIVE vlastnost, napite
zde jmno image souboru (nap. C:\DOS62.IMG). Ppadn zmna ostatnch
vlastnost je nyn v tom sprvnm okamiku. Pot stiknte Save tlatko a
stisknte General zloku. Dejte programovmu objektu jmno a zavete notebook.

Mus bt nyn mon dvakrt uknout na nov programov objekt pro sputn
specifick DOS lohy. Pokud poadujete pstup k fyzick disket (disk A:)
je nutn pout FSACCESS pkaz. Pokud nebude pouit je A: pipojen obsah
image a je !!! mon jej libovoln mnit !!!.

                       Jak pout COM3 a COM4 v OS/2

COM3 a COM4 jsou podporovna na vtin PS/2 pstroj bez jakkoliv dal
manipulace. Na ostatnch strojch je nutn zmnit patin CONFIG.SYS.
Pomoc textovho editoru je nutno zahrnout "(port , addresa, peruen)"
parametry za COM.SYS a VCOM.SYS adii. Napklad:

 DEVICE=C:\OS2\COM.SYS (3,3E8,5) (4,2E8,10)
 DEVICE=C:\OS2\MDOS\VCOM.SYS (3,3E8,5) (4,2E8,10)

Parametry pro COM1 a COM2 nen nutn uvdt (pouze pokud nejsou bn)
OS/2 mus konit se sekvenn slovanmi logickmi COM porty. Napklad
pokud je (fyzick) port dv neinstalovn, ale port ti a tyi je instalovan,
je nutn zat slovn s (2,...) v DEVICE dce. V "Using the Operating
System" pruce je na stran 374 uvedeno vce informaci o COM portech pod

More Information:

For definitions of terms used in this article, please see the
DoubleSpace Help.

DBLSPACE.BIN
------------

MS-DOS uses the DBLSPACE.BIN component to mount the compressed volume
file so you can access the files on your compressed drive. This file
loads automatically if it is in the root directory of the startup disk
(no device= line is needed). If you want to load DBLSPACE.BIN into
upper memory, see the DBLSPACE.SYS section of this article.

DBLSPACE.EXE
------------

This file allows you to mount, create or modify DoubleSpace drives.
DoubleSpace accepts the following parameters:

DBLSPACE /CHKDSK [/F] [drive:]
DBLSPACE /COMPRESS drive: [/F] [/NEWDRIVE=drive2:] [/RESERVE=size]
DBLSPACE /CREATE drive: [/NEWDRIVE=drive2:] [/SIZE=size | /RESERVE=size]
DBLSPACE /DEFRAGMENT [/F] [drive:]
DBLSPACE /DELETE drive:
DBLSPACE /FORMAT drive:
DBLSPACE [/INFO] drive:
DBLSPACE /LISTDBLSPACE /MOUNT[=sss] [drive:] [/NEWDRIVE=drive2:]
DBLSPACE /RATIO[=r.r] [drive: | /ALL]
DBLSPACE /SIZE[=size | /RESERVE=size] [drive:]
DBLSPACE /UNMOUNT [drive:]

For more information about DoubleSpace command-line options, type HELP
DBLSPACE or HELP DBLSPACE /switchname (where /switchname is the name
of the switch about which you want more information) at the command
prompt.

DBLSPACE.HLP
------------

This file contains help on DoubleSpace. To access this file, run
DoubleSpace and choose Contents or Index from the Help menu.

DBLSPACE.INF
------------

The DoubleSpace Setup information file is helpful when creating a new
DoubleSpace drive, but it is not required.

Commands under the [SpecialFiles] section indicate actions to be taken
for specific files; the possible actions are COPY=, IGNORE= and MOVE=.
Without a path, any file of that name will match; wild cards (?, *)
are acceptable.

Programs under the [CopyFiles] section are optional utilities that
will be left on the original boot drive if there is enough room..

Programs under the [dangerous] section will be remarked out using the
REM command from CONFIG.SYS file during DoubleSpace Setup but will not
be remarked after Setup has completed.

Programs under the [prior] section will have DEVICEHIGH=DBLSPACE.SYS
placed ABOVE them in the CONFIG.SYS file.

DBLSPACE.INI
------------

This file is used by DoubleSpace to mount the compressed volume and
swap drive letters. The file contains the following settings:

   MaxRemovableDrives=
   FirstDrive=
   LastDrive=
   MaxFileFragments=
   ActivateDrive=

DBLSPACE.WIN
------------

This is a temporary file that DBLSPACE.BIN generates to keep track of
windows information when a drive is compressed. It should
automatically be deleted after DBLSPACE.BIN completes the compression
of the existing drive.

DBLSPACE.SYS
------------

The DBLSPACE.SYS device driver does not provide access to the
compressed drives; it simply makes it possible for DBLSPACE.BIN to be
loaded high. If you do not plan to move DBLSPACE.BIN into upper
memory, you can safely remove the DEVICE=C:\DOS\DBLSPACE.SYS line from
your CONFIG.SYS file.

DBLSPACE.00x
------------

A compressed drive is not a real disk drive, although it appears that
way to most programs. Instead, a compressed drive exists on your disk
as a hidden file called a compressed volume file (CVF). DBLSPACE.00x
is the compressed volume file.

                      Odstrann DoubleSpace z disku

Summary:

The following procedure describes how to remove DoubleSpace from your
hard disk while preserving your files. It is a lengthy procedure and
should be followed only if DoubleSpace removal is necessary. If you
need to change the size of your DoubleSpace volume, type "help
dblspace" (without the quotation marks) at the MS-DOS command prompt
and refer to the online help topic DBLSPACE /SIZE.

Note: This example assumes that you have compressed your boot drive
(C) and that your DoubleSpace host partition is H. For more
information on how DoubleSpace assigns host partitions, query on the
following words in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

   doublespace and assigns and host

If you are not removing DoubleSpace from your boot drive, skip
steps 2-7.

 1. Back up all the files you want to preserve from your compressed
    drive (C) by using Microsoft Backup or a third-party backup utility.
    (For information on using Microsoft Backup, see Chapter 3, "Managing
    Your System," in the "Microsoft MS-DOS User's Guide.")

 2. When you remove DoubleSpace, what is now drive H will become drive
    C, which means you will boot from drive H. To be able to boot from
    drive H and restore your backup files, the DoubleSpace host partition
    must contain the necessary MS-DOS system files and utilities.
    Furthermore, if you stored your backup files on a network drive,
    network redirectors must be available.

    Determine how much free space you will need to copy the MS-DOS
    files (and network redirectors) on the DoubleSpace host partition
    (drive H). To do so, use the DIR command. For example, to see how
    much space is needed for your MS-DOS files, type the following
    command:

       dir c:\dos

    The output appears as follows:

       ...
       UNFORMAT.COM
DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 42                   2 Jan 1994


       VALIDATE.COM
       VSAFE.COM
       XCOPY.EXE
       194 file(s)    7003143 bytes
                     12959744 bytes free

    The next-to-last line shows the number of bytes used by the files in
    the DOS directory. This number is the amount of free disk space needed
    to store the necessary files and utilities after DoubleSpace is
    removed.

 3. To free unused disk space from the DoubleSpace compressed volume,
    use the /SIZE switch as follows:

       dblspace /size

 4. Determine how much free space there is on the DoubleSpace host
    partition. To do this, change to drive H and use the DIR command. The
    last line of the output from the DIR command shows the number of bytes
    free on drive H. If this number is greater than the number you found
    in step 2, there is enough space to copy the necessary files and
    utilities, and you can proceed with step 6. If there is not enough
    space on the DoubleSpace host partition, proceed to step 5.

 5. Delete enough files on drive C to create the needed space you
    determined during step 2. (Note: Do not delete any MS-DOS or network
    files; those files must be present during this procedure.)

    You can use the DELTREE command to do this. (DELTREE quickly deletes
    entire directories.) For example, to remove the WORD directory and all
    the files and subdirectories it contains, type the following:

       deltree /y c:\word

    After you delete some files, shrink the DoubleSpace volume file
    again by typing the following:

       dblspace /size

    To find out if you've created enough free disk space, change to drive
    H and use the DIR command. Again, the bytes in use and bytes free are
    displayed. If the last line, "bytes free," shows enough free disk
    space, continue with step 6. Otherwise, repeat step 5.

 6. Copy all the MS-DOS and network files that you need (the files you
    determined were necessary during step 2) to the DoubleSpace host
    partition (drive H). To preserve the file and directory structure, you
    can use the XCOPY command with the /S switch. For example, to copy all
    the MS-DOS files into a DOS directory on H, type the following:

       md h:\dos
       xcopy c:\dos\*.* h:\dos /s

 7. Make sure there is a copy of COMMAND.COM in the root of the
    DoubleSpace host partition by typing the following:

DA(m)N NEWS 2-01                   Str. 43                   2 Jan 1994


       dir h:\command.com

    If COMMAND.COM is not present, copy it from the boot drive (C) with
    the following command:

       copy c:\command.com h:\

    Repeat this step for AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files. These files
    need to be in the root of the DoubleSpace host partition as well.

    You now have all the files you need to boot from the uncompressed
    drive and restore your backup files; you can begin removing the
    DoubleSpace volume.

 8. Switch to the root of the DoubleSpace host partition by typing the
    following:

       h:
       cd\

 9. Delete the DoubleSpace files by using the following command:

       deltree /y dblspace.*

10. If you are removing DoubleSpace from your boot drive, open the
    CONFIG.SYS file from the DoubleSpace host partition (H) in a text
    editor, such as MS-DOS Editor. If you are not removing DoubleSpace
    from your boot drive, open the CONFIG.SYS file from drive C. Remove
    any reference to DBLSPACE.SYS. For example, change your DBLSPACE.SYS
    DEVICE command to appear as follows:

       rem device=c:\dos\dblspace.sys

11. Restart your computer by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL.

12. Restore your backup files.
