[edm.general] cnews available via anon uucp

lyndon@cs.AthabascaU.CA (Lyndon Nerenberg) (06/15/89)

The Cnews distribution is now available for anonymous uucp access
from ncc. It's located in ncc!~ftp/news/cnews.shar.Z .

To access ncc, try one of the following:

ncc Any ACU 2400 1-403-425-6260 ogin:--ogin: nuucp

The modems are Trailblazers set up to spit PEP at the end of the
answer sequence. If you call in PEP mode, MAKE SURE you have turned
on g-protocol support before connecting, otherwise you won't get
much of anything. A typical entry for a PEP site would be:

ncc Any ACU 19200 1-403-425-6260;s50=255;s111=30;d ogin:--ogin: nuucp

[ This only applies to those of you who grabbed cnews from ncc ]

The patches are starting to come out for Cnews. I'll be damned if
I'm going to uucp a new version of the entire distribution from
uunet each day, so save these patches as they come by and apply them
by hand, or wait for the comp.sources.unix distribution. The cnews
distribution on ncc will not be updated until the c.s.u version
comes around (unless someone finds a major bug prior to that).
