You can probably get a copy from him at nixpub@ls.com. Furthermore, you can ask "archie" for a list of anonymous ftp sites that archive the nixpub posting. To do this, telnet to quiche.cs.mcgill.ca, log in as "archie" with no password, and type "prog nixpub". You might want to do "set sortby time" before you do this, so you see the most recently archived versions first. If you don't have telnet access, you can mail the command "prog nixpub" in the body of a message to archie@quiche.cs.mcgill.ca. Finally, since the nixpub posting is in the list of periodic postings in news.announce.newusers, the next time it is posted, my FAQ archiver will automatically archive it on my workstation. This will make it available in /pub/usenet/comp.misc on pit-manager.mit.edu (18.72.1.58) via anonymous ftp, or from my mail server (send a message containing "help" to mail-server@pit-manager.mit.edu for more information).
