Subject: Accessing NDSUVM1 from UUCP
This is in response to David Goodenough's complaint that the SIMTEL20
archives are not accessable from UUCP sites.
David, the problem is that you are using the WRONG address for the
server. If you are not on BITNET do NOT use the NDSUVM1 address.
LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU is the correct address for uucp, CSNet, and
Internet users who cannot FTP. It's reachable from ANY uucp site that
is also on the Internet.
Examples: xait!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
uunet!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
ames!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
ucbvax!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
rutgers!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
harvard!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
gatech!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
att!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv
If you are not sure of the correct path to use, send email to me and
I'll tell you what your best path is.
If no one tells us there is a problem how are we supposed to know?
In this case, you had the wrong information.
