In tscmd156:
http://www.netikka.net/tsneti/info/tscmd156.htm

One of the references at the bottom is 404 from here, "Google Groups Jan 25
2007, 5:58 pm":
http://www.google.com/groups?selm=epak2l.3f8.1%40news.tacke.de

Suggest that link should be changed to this or similar:
http://groups.google.com/groups/search?as_umsgid=epak2l.3f8.1%40news.tacke.de

For that matter, there are probably other similar Google Froups links that
need editing.

Stated on that page: "If a Google message link fails try the links
within the brackets." In this case the link within the brackets is
http://groups.google.com/group/alt.msdos.batch.nt/msg/1787cf78deeb4bb1
Google has changed over time its link system more than once. The last
one has been the most stable.

Already done in a similar manner. Nevertheless, thank you for the
observation.

Thank you. Appreciated and corrected. It now points to

182} How do I protect a script, e.g. for a safe access of user passwords?

All the best, Timo
