Well, abcfd20 will *not* return. It's been replaced by: ab20.larc.nasa.gov [128.155.23.64] Observent readers will notice that only the name changed... :-) (Actually, the old name will continue to work for a while since there's a CNAME record in the DNS pointing to the new name.) The hardware remains the same, though I did reformat some disks (including the disk where the ftp area resides) and gained some space. The main change on ab20 (love that new name...) is that it's now running SunOS 4.1.1... I'm also messing with the ftp server again, so there may be brief periods where things may not work right. If there's a persistent problem, send mail... So, have at it... ...tad
