This is just a quick note for people who are passing through nsc on their way to ARPAland. I've been seeing a fair amount of traffic recently using the path ..!nsc!seismo!foo@bar.ARPA. A much preferable (read cheaper) path is to use ..!nsc!decwrl!foo@bar.ARPA because decwrl is up the road a ways and seismo is somewhere off on the east coast -- a transcontinental phone call for us. Once you get to arpa, it doesn't change the transmission times significantly, so we would really appreciate it if people could try to help us keep our phone calls as local as possible. Eventually (maybe in the next month or so) I'm hoping to install a version of the gatech sendmail configuration and start doing route optimization, but until then I'd appreciate it if people could try to use the local gateway. thanx! chuq -- :From the misfiring synapses of: Chuq Von Rospach {cbosgd,fortune,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo}!nsc!chuqui nsc!chuqui@decwrl.ARPA The offices were very nice, and the clients were only raping the land, and then, of course, there was the money...
