    RW> This is where my RC's system breaks down. He tried using MNL for OS/2   
    RW> and it didn't work.   
      
   When did he tried it the last time? with which revision?   
   probably with an older revision < 3.4.x   
      
   Yes, there was an annoying bug with an OS/2 version, that produces a runtime   
   error under OS/2 but not on other revisions.   
   This bug has been fixed in v3.4 and the ticket is marked closed-fixed   
   https://sourceforge.net/p/makenl/bugs/17/   
      
    RW>  I enabled the allow unpublished and his MNL/OS/2   
    RW> couldn't handle it. He's still reluctant to use it. One other   
    RW> complaint he has is that MNL won't submit a netseg with no changes in   
    RW> it. NLMake, which is what he uses, won't except a file that has a date   
    RW> over 8 weeks old. So an NC must make a change to the netseg, forcing   
    RW> one to enter a number in an IP only node to make that change, until he   
    RW> gets a working OS/2 version.   
      
   You can forward these infos also with the FORcesubmit 1  parameter setting   
   and probably all problems are gone  -;)
