Hello,


   We have an older version of INMOS ANSI C Toolset, and I am not sure
if I have all of the configuration material that it requires. I have
the user guide and reference guide. What I am have a problem with is
setting it up.

After completing the install.bat and install2.bat procedures we have problems.
Every time I attempt to compile the sample programs I get a stupid
error message that is no where in the manuals. It goes something like
this: 
icc hellop.c /o hellop.tco /ta /g /wt
    and it says
error - iserver - protocol error, read nonsense from the link (!!!!! mine)

I have also noticed this behavior from any of the itools executables
isim,ilink,.....

Oh yea, it is official copy from INMOS(august 1990) running under the
MS/DOS 4.01 on 386/20 with no fpu.

Any information on this puzzling problem would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks,

  Tod Matola
