Hello folks.  Perhaps someone here can help me out.
I've tried using the lfn file from the ftp site.  I can load it just fine,
but when I try to make a file with long filenames, it never works.  If I
try it with a program, it just reverts to an 8.3 name.  If I try it using
dos commands (md, copy con, dir >filename ...) the system hangs quite
nicely.  And yes, I switched to the command.com that is supposed to
support the long filenames.  Any ideas?
