[comp.mail.misc] Need path to applevax/John Hopkins U

harrus@aluxe.UUCP (HARRUS) (01/16/87)

Hi,

I need a path to get from ihnp4 to John Hopkins University at applevax.
I would appreciate any help in this matter.

As a general rule, is there a way to obtain a path between any two 
machines?  some sort of lookup table or general catalog ?
This certainly would be helpful !

Thanks again.

The machine name is aplvax, not applevax.  It is at the JHU Applied
Physics Lab.  This may help.

I am new at this game so I don't know if this will get posted
correctly.  This message is for the person wanting to know how
one finds UUCP paths to odd places, such as aplvax at John
Hopkins.  Having spent many frustrating hours looking for an
address I can tell you what I found.  On our machine, and I dont
know if this is standard, there is a file called
/usr/lib/notes/notes-map
that has every path that someone though was useful.
Good luck
