Fellow CP/Mers - I have been wanting to pass this on, but I just now found where I had it stashed. Those fortunates who can telnet to harvard will find their UUCP path service extremely useful.

This is due to the pathalias database that is kept on harvard. Furthermore, if you want to see the address (path), you can run "pathto site" (if your site is running the pathto code I distributed in the fall), or simply telnet harvard on port 117 and type the name of the site. If you want the pathto stuff, I can send it to you. Marc P.S. Note that this mailer is probably sending out incorrect return addresses (we are working on it). You can reply to elvy%talcott@harvard.arpa. ----- End of forwarded messages
