I sent a mail ftp type message to bitftp@pucc.princeton.edu and received the following message: * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * BITFTP is no longer able to provide service to * * * * nodes that are not directly on EARN or BITNET * * * * or NetNorth. Your node appears to be * * * * accessible from BITNET only via a mail-only * * * * gateway. If you believe that your node is * * * * directly on BITNET or NetNorth or EARN, please * * * * send mail to MAINT@PUCC specifying your * * * * BITNET/EARN/NetNorth node name. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Soooo, does anyone know where else one can send messages for this type service, when one is connected to internet; OR how one would NOW re-phrase the request to get it to work? ______________________________________________________________________________ John Boyd 72341.1707@compuserve.com "Preserve your memories.. the rest ends up in a garage sale" - Ferris Beuller
