[comp.sys.amiga] Kilowatt Archive-Server

sparks@corpane.UUCP (John Sparks) (06/02/89)

Well I have tried every suggested path to kilowatt and all but one gives me
'host unknown'. 

host unkown:

archive-server%kilowatt@sun.com
archive-server@kilowatt.sun.com
archive-server@kilowatt
archive-server@sun.com!kilowatt

We have a smart mailer that understands '@' so that was not the problem.

*********************
The only way I got through was with this path:

     uunet!sun.com!kilowatt!archive-server

**********************

also: uunet!sun.com!kilowatt!archive!server    comes back with user unknown

The help file that kilowatt sends back to you will show the path to send to
it as:
     archive-server%kilowatt@sun.com
     archive-server@kilowatt.sun.com

Neither will work for me. I use the direct path I have given above.

I hope this helps those that also have had difficulty reaching kilowatt.

In article <735@corpane.UUCP> sparks@corpane.UUCP I write:

>also: uunet!sun.com!kilowatt!archive!server    comes back with user unknown

sorry, I meant that:

       uunet!sun.com!kilowatt!server   comes back with user unknown.



I was referring to a previous message that stated that you could send to
     kilowatt!archive-server *OR* kilowatt!server
But they are NOT equivalent. The !server is an unknown user to kilowatt.
