[comp.dcom.telecom] Can I Get to Texas From Here?

I have a question concerning communications with a VAX from afar.  A
friend of mine is moving from Texas A&M to South Carolina (North
Augusta) to begin his career.  However, he has a little work left to
complete on his thesis.  The information (much of which is graphics)
resides on one of several VAXes at TA&M.  What steps should he take to
find out if there is some locally accessible networking facility that
will allow him communications with the VAX?  Dialing into the VAX is
an option, but a bit expensive.  Please email or post any suggestions.
And by the way, I never frequent this newsgroup as I know zero, zilch,
na-da about such things.  Thanks in advance.

Then again, maybe not! :)  We'll see if anyone can answer you.  PAT]
