So that sounds even more like an endian issue.

I'm assuming you compiled hpt and talisman on the m68k? I bet the hpt on the same machine sending something to a different machine wouldnt work... You'd get the same pkt version issue... (Send me a packet and we can see...)

"512" is the 2nd bit of the 2nd byte, and "2" is the 2nd bit of the 1st byte, and in a fido packet, the "version" value is a 2 byte field.
