I have subscribed to Usenet for about a year now, but my knowledge of nets in general is still VERY basic. Would someone be so kind as to either provide or direct me to explanations of how to read addresses, access other networks, etc. Basically, I'd appreciate any info you can provide me to help me navigate the sea of nets out there. I don't know enough right now to ask specific qustions. Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please reply via e-mail; I just don't have enough time to go thru the entire newsgroup. Thanks a lot! c60a-2ce@web.berkeley.edu@ucbvax.berkeley.edu...................Mikey *** Call Tanelorn III! (415) 540-1180. The Apple/Mac BBS of Berkeley.

Thanks! >--------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================================================================= ME TOO!! ME TOO!! I'm fairly new (although I have learned a lot in the short time I've been involved), but I think I'm also a potential gate to other posters and need to know as much as possible about the intricacies of netnews as well as mail paths and aliases (for example, one of my users asked if i knew the path to kodak from here and the best i could do was ask him to call the user he wanted to contact and find out that way). As you can see I'd appreciate any and all help as well as literture to read or even classes offered in this area. thankyou, pam pyramid!infmx!mabon
