        Okay, that is what I thought would be the answer.  I asked only to
be sure since I had seen it on some other FTP's.  I'm going to get on
Caldera's page and see if I can find a suitable address to mail about this.
I have many die-hard DOS users that would love to try out OpenDOS.  Since
they have no internet access, it would be nice if I could put it online for
them.

Thanks for your input.
