the nasty lockup bug when running a server (it's been acknowledged by peter tattam) now has a workaround that i've found. i keep a linux machine pinging my 8088 every few seconds over my LAN. it keeps the packets processing.
mr. tattam can't seem to fix it and he's working on it still to this day. this is hardly an ideal solution, but it works. my 8088 has now been up for over 36 hours running my "quikserv" Http/ftp server program with at least 10 internet connections incoming per hour, and a myriad more from my computers on the LAN. compare that to the normal 1 hour or less before it locked up.

not really much content.. just making sure it stays working. hopefully will have a hard disk soon. my ZIP disk is wayyy too slow on that machine to do it.
my 286 IRC server is also now running stable on port 6668. want to see if it can stay up a week before i make it the main port 6667 server. but yes, it seems as if this horrible issue has been resolved... i wish there were a better way to do it, but hey whatever works i guess.
i'll stop here since you're all sick of my 8088 web server posts.
