There is also the ubiquitous WSMR-SIMTEL20.ARMY.MIL.

Thomas Rolf's has a OnLine Information Service (OLIS) for Forth
information.  It contains among other things, files which describe
what ForthNet is, and how to access SIMTEL20.  There is another
anonymous FTP site that keeps a mirror-image copy of the files on SIMTEL20,
but I can't recall its name right now.

Anyway, OLIS is temporarily down for improvements.  In the meantime,
if you would like either of the two aforementioned files, drop me a note
at one of the addresses below and I'll email you one.
