Panarthea is on Sun's internal network, which is segregated from the outside world. Sun.com will pass mail back and forth, so the archive server works, but anonymous ftp won't. (Perhaps eventually they will have anonymous ftp on sun.com itself, but don't hold your breath.) In the meantime, mail to archive-server%panarthea.ebay@sun.com to get what you need. It responds very quickly. --- This message is a figment of your imagination. Any opinions are yours. Steven Grimm Moderator, comp.{sources,binaries}.atari.st sgrimm@sun.com ...!sun!sgrimm

I like to sign on here on weekend evenings and do my archive requests. Since we are on the internet direct, I can send off a request to panarthea and get the response back in a matter of 5 minutes or less! Not bad! My only complaint (minor, very minor) is that if I stick a bunch of parts requests on one line, it sends the whole shebang in one block. Yikes! I've gone over 100k several times -- it seems to get through here, but I know there are machines around that enforce 100k limits on messages. -- - John M.
