4574.0. "Looking for configuration tool" by NYAAPS::CORBISHLEY (David Corbishley 323-4376) Thu Apr 25 1996 10:42

    On our web page I found an Alpha configuration tools for Windows
    systems.  To get the tool you have to fill in a form and get a mail
    messsage back with the poiner.  Fine.  But when I clicked send, it
    fired up my Microsoft Exchange mail to send the information.  I haven't
    received the pointer, so I assume this failed.  Does anyone have the
    pointer so I can obtain this tool?  Thanks!
