I thought this is of interested to a lot of you !!!!
Sorry for the cross posting.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this the future of Internet or Milnet, or just mine !?!?!?
You all properly know that this Network, as any other one, has
problems every now and then. We all know that individual host can
have problems to.
In August 1990 I started working on this host. I am no superuser,
not root or the SA. Just an ordinary user who happen to be
interested in computers and communications. From the beginning I
experienced problems and told the SA. She tried to help me as good
as she could. We solved some of the problems. Now she left end of
May.
Today my supervisor received a phonecall from the Information
Management people. The result was:
"Pocky, don't use e-mail for anything else then DoD purpose for the
next two weeks"
This means exactly "Do not contact any other location i.e. .com,
.gov, .net, .edu or whatsoever AND DON'T RECEIVE E-MAIL FROM THEM.
The local Information Management people want to test if mail I
RECEIVE from OUTSIDE is the problem !!!!!!!!
In a few words, the problem we have is interruption in the
communication line to the next host/gateway. Disconnections any
transmission of garbage characters on remote (modem dial in) users.
The communication problems have been so strong that the European
Milnet Monitoring Center disconnected us sometimes.
Will the future of a fantastic tool, called computer communication,
be like that??? Just cut a user off when he starts asking questions!
Cut him off, because once he is gone there is no more complains!
I am sure you all do understand why I send this message.
I will wait for the "Computer & Communication Police" to start searching
my printouts and confiscating whatever they feel.
Until end of June don't send anything to me but you can contact me
thrue bstring@mainz-emh2.army.mil. (Until they cut him off to ?!?!?!
;-{ )
So listmanagers, please take me off until 1. July 1991.
Pocky
( A former happy Computernetwork user )
