I've been test driving LSPPP V. 7.64 for a month or so. The good news for me is I got it to establish a connection after tweaking its timeouts, compared to previous versions. The bad news is that internet applications seem to perform badly compared to epppd, which I used for years with no clear trouble.
Specifically, I use Pine 3.91 for Dos to access my IMAP mail server. With LSPPP, reliably, when I try to mail out a message with Pine, the message gets mailed, then pine says, ``Writing Fcc'' -- and freezes the computer virtually every time, requiring a reboot. In fact, the Fcc copy gets written. With pine and the same message, using epppd, pine has no trouble writting the Fcc after mailing out the message. With all the praise of LSPPP, I wonder if it is me or memorex? I have not problem loading EPPPD high, even though it is bigger than LSPPP. I am told it has a ``memory leak'' meaning, if one surfs the web with say, dos lynx, data will build up in RAM over time and not get purged. Is there another ``old'' packet driver that does not have EPPD's problem I can use? Am I odd person out for continually noticing problems with LSPPP, where others see an improvement? Since a packet driver is critical to using the internet with dos, this is important to me.
