It shouldn't be a problem to find scsiinfo-1.7.tar.gz on an ftp server
somewhere with archie or similar (I think it is on tsx-11, ALPHA scsi or
something). Anyway it's 64K only, I'll follow this up with a private mail
containing the tar. You'll also have to have tcl/tk (hence wish) installed
too. (Or just use the plain scsiinfo which is not easy to use for setting
values).
Michael.
