A few years ago, a friend of mine recommended to me the Portal system in California. I've noticed several of you access Usenet through portal. I've also read the Portal Guidebook, in which vague references are made to how well connected the portal system is. My question: Is it possible for me to use Telnet from my local Unix system to access Portal? I can easily afford the Portal connect charges: it's the long-distance bills that I can't handle. Any information would be appreciated. Please respond via email. If there are useful responces, I'll post a summary to the Net in a week or so. Thanks! -- Frank McPherson INTERNET: fmcphers@vttcf.cc.vt.edu --
