	What do I do with links which I don't want available to the
outside world because they cost me money, but which exist for internal
use.  As an example, I have a uucp entry for okstate which is only there
to serve as the uucp equivalent of anonymous FTP for snarfing kermit
stuff.  However, I don't want all of New York to use this for mail.  Do
I report it as DEAD?

	Of course, the costs are only for the benefit of pathalias;
people can still choose to route stuff manually via phri!okstate (Please
don't!!).  Is there a way to tell my uucp system NOT to forward anything
to a particular site unless it originated locally (or, if it originated
from any of a set of sites)?
