Hi, I'm not the uihub administrator, but I play one when nobody's looking :-)
The main problem is that the Wollongong TCP/IP package running on hub has a
propensity to hang its ftpd's, still holding onto their sockets.  There is a
bug-fixed version of the software, which the administrator is trying to get
hold of, but says he's being hindered by red tape (any wonder why all of our
other machines run BSD?).  In the meanwhile, I got him to reconfigure the
kernel with more streams, but that only delays the inevitable.

Send mail to me or John Carey (carey@cs.uiuc.edu) when you discover a problem
w/uihub and things will get fixed ASAP (note: John will probably get the
message first because I'm not around here that much [I'm out doing some Amiga
programming and starting to look around for real Amiga-related work ... any
leads, anyone?], but make sure you at least cc: to both of us because I'm more
likely to act with dispatch.  Y'see, I'm the only one around here who has any
reason to care if uihub is up or not).

Well, up until my contact at CSO vanished into la-la land, I had managed to
foist 1-188 onto uxe.cso.uiuc.edu.  If I can get things happening again before
I leave, the stuff from uihub will show up on uxe as well.  Nonetheless,
between uihub and uxe, just about all of the Fish, CUCUG, and Amicus disks
are online for anon FTP.  Enjoy, as best you can!
