I get 'The application program "LinuxPPC1997.sea" could not be opened,
because an error of type -39 occured." under MacOS 8.5.1 on a Beige
G3/266. :-(

I downloaded it with fetch in binary mode.

Netscape actually had wanted to display the file, so I'd already used ftp
from my NAT box then Fetch'ed to my machine.

The file on my firewall has checksum:

cksum -m LinuxPPC1997.sea
MD5 (LinuxPPC1997.sea) = b0a78f10f1f27b5c0fa998f698c34514

Thoughts?

Take care,
