rws@EXPO.LCS.MIT.EDU (Bob Scheifler) (02/10/90)
Fixes are available via anonymous ftp to expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.212), in the directory /pub/R4/fixes/, in files with prefix "fix-". The second fix, now available, is "fix-2". Fixes get put there in batches at intervals only. Fixes usually propagate to other distribution sites as well, so it may pay to check at a nearer site first. For those without ftp access, individual fixes can be obtained by mail by sending a message to xstuff@expo.lcs.mit.edu. In the usual case, the message should have a subject line and no body, or a single-line body and no subject, in either case the line looking like: send fixes 2 (to get the second fix). To get a summary of fixes, make the line: index fixes If you need help, make the line: help Some mailers produce mail headers that are unusable for extracting return addresses. If you use such a mailer, you won't get any response. If you happen to know an explicit path, you can include a line like path foo%bar.bitnet@mitvma.mit.edu or path zot!gzork!me@uunet.uu.net in the body of your message, and the daemon will use it.
