Can anyone tell me where the anonymous FTP atari archives are? -B

I've been trying to ftp from atari.archive (terminator/35.1.33.8) all day today, but never get connected. Is there a problem there today? As I said before, we've just changed to a Sun, so this may be the problem (except that I've been able to connect via ftp to the info-mac server out in CA). Thanks, Gerry

Is there a problem there today? As I said I posted a note about this last week, you must have missed it. The network numbers have changed, atari.archive.umich.edu is now at 141.211.164.8. If your site isn't using the Domain Naming System you should ask (no, *demand*! }-) that your sysadmin switch over. It'll save you from this sort of hassle if you always use domain names to refer to sites. (As opposed to numeric addresses.) While I don't predict the numbers in Michigan changing again any time in the near future, as a general rule - don't use static lists of host names and addresses, use the Domain Naming System. Don't use numeric addresses when you try to connect to places, use their names and the Domain Naming System. You'll be happier for it... -- -- Howard Chu @ University of Michigan one million data bits stored on a chip, one million bits per chip if one of those data bits happens to flip, one million data bits stored on the chip...

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the Unix system and the user nets so I have a question. I've seen people talking about somthing called Atari.archive and I would like to know how to access this. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

I've received several messages from MAIL-DAEMON at uunet that it can't send messages to terminator/atari.archive (host mailrus) - is everything working normally? I've used both atari@atari.archive.umich.edu and atari@terminator.cc.umich.edu but received the 3-day notice with both. Any suggestions? -- ################################################################################ # Bill Sheppard -- bills@microware.com -- {uunet,sun}!mcrware!mwca!bill # # Microware Systems Corporation --- OS-9: Seven generations beyond __/_!! # #######Opinions expressed are my own, though you'd be wise to adopt them!#######

Any suggestions? mailrus is one of our uucp gateway machines. it has suffered a disk crash and hasn't been answering the door lately... However, uunet should not have to rely on mailrus to get mail thru to atari.archive. You might try sending your uucp mail to uunet!atari.archive.umich.edu!atari, though I'm not sure that it will give a different result at uunet, given the behavior you cite. Of course, now that I think of it, even if you *can* get the message thru, uunet will probably rewrite the header to say from user@host.uucp, and the mailer at atari.archive will try to send to mailrus to get it forwarded. Oh well... No good suggestions for the moment. -- -- Howard Chu @ University of Michigan one million data bits stored on a chip, one million bits per chip if one of those data bits happens to flip, one million data bits stored on the chip...

I have also had trouble "ftp"ing from the atari.archive.umich.edu archive. I always get "connection refused". I thiugh that the problem was local, but I can ping the atari.archive.umich.edu machine showing the the connection is active and that I should be able to ftp from the archive. I think that the atari.archive.umich.edu machine is refusing the ftp connection due to a UNIX permissions problem or something like that. Mark Lehmann tamuts.tamu.edu

I've used both mailrus.cc.umich.edu has been down recently because of disk problems. There is absolutely no reason that your mail from tamu to atari.archive.umich.edu should be going through either mailrus or uunet unless you are using a bang path to route it. in that case, the solution is simple -- don't do that. if you forward the bounce message to postmaster@umich.edu they will be able to give you the true, honest story. obst: did you notice the discussion in the Amiga group about the Atari ST emulator? --Ed Edward Vielmetti, U of Michigan math dept <emv@math.lsa.umich.edu> moderator, comp.archives claimer: I do not work for the U of Michigan Information Technology Division.
