- What I have found is the PC Gopher needs about 540k free of memory. I got
- the above message, after tweaking of tsrs (isn't dos fun?), I got ncsa telnet
- to load, but not connect to anything, after more tweaking (more fun!) it
- finally all worked. Keep in mind the version I'm using, plus that we're using
- the Novell ODI stuff (lots of memory used by them, so you need high/upper
- memory). So mileage may very.
-
- Hope this helps.
