92.4ProblemsEVTAI1::RONSSINMCS FranceFri Jan 24 1997 03:4016
As you suggest, we took the NFT and NCP commands from the pathworks V6 client.

Here are the problems:
With NCP, they can't define nodes
(version V6.0.005, command NCP> define node 36.69 name VEAT08)
The message is
	The node file cannot be opened or created.

With NFT, they can't access nodes
(version V6.0.001, command NFT> dir 69::)
	Error in DIRECTORY of 69::
	Because Remote Node is Unreachable
And it is reachable: "NCP> tell node 69 show exe" works.

    Thank you,
    Marie Christine.

    Solution found:
    The name of the pathworks directory was a long name with a blank.

    NO ONE said take the NCP from v6.0, just NFT.  NCP is on PATHWORKS 32
    and should be used.

92.7nft.exe in the TIMA kitJAMIN::RUZICHPATHWORKS Client EngineeringTue Apr 22 1997 15:4310
When the TIMA kit is released, it will contain a directory of unsupported
software. It is, of course, truly unsupported, but it should work. 

The 16-bit NFT.EXE is present; all 3 copies are the same:

	\nosupprt\alpha\nft.exe
	\nosupprt\i386\nft.exe
	\nosupprt\w95\nft.exe

Not only should it work, but many of us use the components...
NFT is great for batch jobs
