[comp.unix.questions] Minix

BECKER%HUMBER.BITNET@wiscvm.wisc.EDU (Bruce Becker) (06/27/87)

Where is the MINIX interest group?

I gather there is some stuff on usenet, but it doesn't seem to
be posted here...

I got ahold of a patch to fix MINX boot from hard disk; where
is it best sent tog.ll-@wang

Bruce,
	The minix mail address is comp.os.minix on USENET.  I'm new to 
USENET so I don't know the appropiate gateways and syntax to send to a 
USENET host from arpanet or bitnet.  I have tried several unsuccesful 
mail messages to it, but ended up giving up on it.  If you find any 
information drop me a line.

P.S. Does anyone on the net know where information for arpa gateways is kept.
     or maybe quick "how to" message on the subject.

On many TACs there is a provision to access DDN News by entering
	@n
for the command.  You still have to provide auth., etc., but you get
connected up to SRI-NIC which has all the information that you want.
Once you're connected, it presents a menu, from which you choose your
options.  Under on branch in that tree, you'll find a selection for
listing gateways (names) and specific info on each one.  There are
about 133 ARPA gateways.

===================================================================


Some groups are moderated or are monitored mailing lists.  They can
only be posted to by mailing submissions to the coordinator (provided
in a companion posting).  Some selected sites provide automatic
remailing in support of 2.11 news -- posting to one of these groups
automatically mails the article for the poster. Some of the moderated
groups are gatewayed to USENET from the ARPA Internet and appear as
newsgroups to facilitate distribution and posting from the Usenet.
Other of the "world" groups are bidirectionally gatewayed with ARPA
Internet mailing lists; items submitted from the ARPA side to the
digest are split up and submitted to the USENET group, while articles
submitted on the USENET side are bundled up and submitted to the
mailing list.  A complete list of moderated newsgroups, submission
addresses and moderators is given in a companion posting.

The following "world" groups have been gatewayed with the listed
Arpa Internet lists.  Some of them may not still be gatewayed due to
broken software and/or gateways; such groups are marked with an
asterisk ("*") in the list below.  Please contact me if you should know
of their current status.  Also note that the group "comp.lang.forth" is
gatewayed with the Bitnet discussion list "umforth@weizmann.bitnet".

ok, I found out.  Sorry to take up space in the wrong group.  I now know
about comp.os.minix or whichever it was called.  I also know where to find it.
thanks to those of you who emailed me.
