Many of our users have requested such so they can read News local on their own PC's. Instead of tying up the main-system. Thanks a Million Well, for a start you can look on simtel20 (or it's convient mirror site wuarchive.wustl.edu) in mirrors/msdos/uucp at uupc. uupc is a uucp implimentation for ibm pc's. You are on the internet (assumed from your address) so you can get these. If what you want is to read nntp news on you pc (and you have these pcs on the ether) then try mirrors/msdos/ka9q-tcpip. I'm less familiar with this but I think this is the right direction. bruce -- Bruce O'Neel oneel@heasfs.gsfc.nasa.gov NASA/GSFC/STX/Code 664
