[comp.sys.amiga] What is the ftp site abcdf...?

jcfst@unix.cis.pitt.edu (John C. Fossum) (03/06/91)

     I can't remember the extension for the abcdf...? ftp site. Can
anyone help me out. I need a slideshow program off of a Fred Fish di.
Any quick help would be appreciated.

The site is ab20.nasa.gov 128.155.23.64
Timo Salmi also has the fred fish collection at 128.214.6.100 in Finland

The correct name is abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov.  You got the address right.
                       ^^
                      Note!

Now the only problem is, does anyone know of a site that carries the new FF
disks  ( >440) ????

Make that twice.

It has come to my attention via email that ab20... is also valid, but the 
'.larc' section was left out of the post previous to mine. The following
is what I get from nslookup.

Actually, it's ab20.larc.nasa.gov.  I know.  It's my workstation.  :-)

The `cfd' was removed from the name several months ago, but still
works for sites using the DNS because a CNAME (alias) record was
installed to let the old name continue to work. 

Move this to comp.sys.amiga.misc -- comp.sys.amiga is dead.
