Check your TimeZone preferences, not Time prefs. You may have the wrong GMT offset selected. Also, if you have "Use Locale Preferences" checked, make sure the Locale prefs are also set correctly. Then, after all that, you can set the remote time server in the "Remote" tab of the ...

Got it all figured out. Thanks Colin! Just so I am clear: the first time I scan a drawer and find a hard link, it shows up as a hard link. The next time it shows not as a link, but as the actual destination item (file or drawer). Is that the correct behavior? No, it is not, every time you scan a gi...

Colinw, Yes, the system can make hard links. But it looks like it can't identify them yet? I just tested it again with my test executable, it does definately work with the latest dos.library, you didn't say what version you are using, it may have issues that have subsequently been fixed. 8.RAM Disk...

MakeLink() will fail if the link already exists. You should get: ERROR_OBJECT_EXISTS.
MakeLink( ,LINK_HARD) will likely fail with any version of SFS filesystem. It only supports softlinks.
MakeLink( ,LINK_HARD) has been tested on FFS7, NGF0 and RAM1 filesystems by me, it does definately work.

I wrote the ACTION_STARTUP dospacket documentation to show how it all works... Also, "if (dl->dol_Type==DLT_DEVICE)" is redundant, because the FindDosEntry() filters by flags. ==================================================================== * FUNCTION * This action has the same value a...

assign DISMOUNT RAM: dismounts RAM: with no problem. And C:Dismount produces this: C:Dismount ram: DISMOUNT: packet request type unknown After reading the autodocs for the ACTION_DIE & ACTION_SHUTDOWN packets and the DismountDevice() function, I get the impression that ram: may not be completel...

Treat them the same, (except when walking the chain of course), no version tests required.
The new type of assigns uses a previously spare NULL field in the DosList structure,
it will only be non-NULL when the new multi-assign type is encountered.

You have it nearly right. Firstly, GetDeviceProc() is used to identify the device handler and "other" things like resolving assignments. If you just want a list, don't call GetDeviceProc() or anything else that will call it, otherwise it will resolve them, so there's your problem. As you a...

I let snoopy run to cover another bug in another program and ... Snoopy is a debugging tool, it only works as such. It adds overhead to every DOS call, (and some of the others), by patching each function with a small stub, it does not provide or perform any workaround that make application bugs go ...
