SWISS-PTC does not have the PACKET modem option and it's modified for
comercial use and will not talk to original SCS PTC-II.

Your problem is that you will claim that anything that you have
not seen working on your own machine "does not exist", no matter how
many others come up with examples of things that exist.
As I have pointed out before, your searching skills are obviously lacking.
So there is no need to bring up that you have looked for it.

My point holds (about Linux Bigots).
This Windows 98 system is in fact "doing that" under windows.
Can't "do that" in Linux, the software does not exist.
Those two facts seem to be the sole and only things one can
learn from this thread: that the Linux Bigots think everything
can be done in Linux (when it cannot), and think nothing can
be done in Windows (when almost everything can).

Ahh, so there's no real problem at all. Since "Linux bigotry" will
turn you off linux, we should all be turned off packet radio by
your obvious packet radio bigotry. Otherwise we'd have double standards,
wouldn't we?

Look, Charles -- it's no skin off my nose if you don't use it. I think
it's a quality product and it has a lot to offer and will enhance
the art of packet radio (something I thought you were interested in),
so I'll keep using it and I'll keep talking about it.

No need to patronise me, I have read the original.

The reason why anyone would use Win9x over Linux, is that they have only
client requirements. They don't have a server requirement.
My main client machine is a Win98 AMD K5 133 MHz machine. It runs
windows and office. It also runs APRS in the background.
The Linux box is where the Win98 stores its files. It is the file server
(Samba).
It is the Web Server (Roxen), it is the FTP server, the Majordomo server,
the lightning detection server, etc, etc. The Win9x client is just a fancy
Web
browser and office (email) machine.
Without the Linux server, my operations here would return to the days of
when
I had an IBM XT clone running Wordstar...

It's worth checking, but I believe that the "using Windows" wasn't stated as
part of it. You were asking for the simplist way to gate mail and newsgroups.
