Hi all,

a tip when downloading MPE patches from HPITRC by using the FTP client
from the HP3K. When downloading patch MPELX36C (for MPE6.0) I had an
unpleasant surprise after about an hour  (using a 64K dialup line):
The patch size exceeded the filesize limit imposed by the default FTP
settings in BLDPARMS.ARPA.SYS and the transfer was aborted. Not nice.
Perhaps a caveat to include in the "MPE/ix patch installation guide"
to supply the get command with sufficient build parameters, like "get
MPELX36C ./MPELX36C;rec=-1,,b,ascii;disc=1000000000".

regards
