The other day I tried to ftp to sun.soe.clarkson.edu to get the latest version of the packet drivers. When I tried to log in, the ftp server wouldn't take anonymous or anything else I tried. Whats the word on sun.soe.clarkson.edu? Assuming that it was my error, and (or some new machine) is working, what file should I grab for the latest stuff? Tom -- Thomas M.

Hmmm... Just worked for me. Here's the howtoget.it file for the packet
drivers:
The Clarkson packet driver collection
Availability
The Clarkson collection of packet drivers is available by FTP, by
archive-server, and by modem. They come in two flavors -- executables
only (drivers.arc), and source+executables (driverss.arc). All of the
following instructions apply to both drivers.arc and driverss.arc.
Mail:
I distribute the packet drivers on a 1.2 MB 5.25" disk, or a 720K 3.5"
disk. You can send me a check for $20, or you can send me a purchse
order and I will bill you for $22. NY residents add 7% sales tax,
overseas orders add $3 for shipping. If you send a check, please be
sure it is in US dollars -- the bank charges me $15 to convert checks
drawn in foreign currencies.
