Well, let's try this for the forth time! Name of site. dual What the site is all about. Dual Systems Corporation Engineering Department System Dual Systems is an established manufacturer of 68000 Unix systems for the IEEE-696/S-100 bus. Our first delivery was in October 1981. This system is the shakedown point for new hardware/software, and it is our networking hub, both internally and externally. Name of contact person at site. Erik E. Fair Electronic mail address of contact person. {ucbvax,amd70,zehntel,unisoft}!dual!usenet U.S. Mail address of contact person. Dual Systems Corporation 2530 San Pablo Avenue Berkeley, CA 94702 Phone number of contact person. (415) 549-3854 Systems with whom news articles are exchanged. (what kind of link, who the neighbor(s) are). We get news from amd70 and zehntel over a 1200 baud uucp link. Systems with whom mail is exchanged. (what kind of link, who the neighbor(s) are, what frequency of connection, whether or not you'll pass outside mail along). We talk uucp regularly to the following sites: ucbvax 4 times a day, we poll, also on demand unisoft 4 times a day, we poll, also on demand zehntel 4 times a day, we poll, also on demand amd70 many times at night, we poll, and they poll, also on demand proper 1 time at night, we poll, and they poll, also on demand notavax 1 time at night, we poll, also on demand onyx 1 time at night, we poll, also on demand unicom on demand only Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that want to join usenet. If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection? We are not on the ARPAnet. We are one hop away from ucbvax, however. We want to keep our phone bill down, so 415 area code, and possibly 408/707 are the areas we will willingly call. If you want to call us, call me and we can arrange it. That won't be a problem until traffic overload. Rule of thumb: Mail is easy, News is hard. If you want to publish your uucp phone number, login, and password, include that info. Call me if you want to poll us.
