Fiuczynski) Newsgroups: comp.sys.att Subject: ATT internet access Message-ID: Date: 17 Mar 91 20:17:04 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J. Lines: 22 Why is it that AT&T only has a few gateways to the internet. As far as i know there is: research.att.com (murray hill) att.att.com att-in.att.com There are probably more than that, but why only so few? BellCore has tons of connections to the internet. They only allow people to telnet out and refuse finger connection, but at least they one can get to the rest of the world. On a select few machines they allow people to telnet it, this allows people to take advantage of internet gateways around the world. Right now I am logged in to Rutgers via the Princeton gateway. Sure beats dialing in at low speed. Is AT&T going to give their employee's internet access? -Marc -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Marc E.
