To everybody in Europe, who suffers the same problem: The X-archvies on export.lcs.mit.edu are accessible in BITNET/EARN from the mail server TRICKLE@AWIWUW11.BITNET. For example in order to obtain contrib/acm.2.3.tar.Z send a mail containing the following lines in its body: /PDGET acm.2.3.tar.Z /PDDIR /HELP BITNET/EARN users can also send messages (using TELL) to order files. -gustaf neumann PS: yes, we are accessing export.lcs.mit.edu and not expo.lcs.mit.edu, we just did not rename our local directory names. --- Gustaf Neumann neumann@dec4.wu-wien.ac.at, neumann@awiwuw11.bitnet Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration Augasse 2-6, A-1090 Vienna, Austria Tel: +43 (222) 31-336 x4533 Fax 347-555
