From here on in, this message will only be posted monthly. Feel free to pass along the information to others who may need it. Note that I have included additional information on the use of the "uucp" command. Also note that the archives are ONLY AVAILABLE BETWEEN 3AM and NOON EST. My apologies for not allowing additional availability, but I need the modem for other things during the off-hours. Enjoy! ============== Archives are available between the hours of 3:00AM and 12:00PM (noon) EST. All requests made outside this time will be rejected. Access can be made via 1200 or 2400 baud, or Trailblazer PEP speed. Note that since the archive has been significantly expanded since its creation three weeks ago. Hopefully this will better serve the UNIX-pc community.
