[comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d] Accessing SIMTEL20 Mac files via UUCP

gpitcher@edpmgt.UUCP (Glenn Pitcher) (12/28/89)

For some time now I have been accessing certain SIMTEL20 files through the
bitnet servers but now I have the need to access Mac files that reside on
SIMTEL20.  Does anyone know of any archive servers that provide access to 
the SIMTEL20 Mac files (or any other mac archive site for that matter). 

Thanks,

I get my Macintosh things from the following two sites:

	FILESERV@IRLEARN.BITNET 
	LISTSERV@icsa.rice.edu 

Send them a one line mail: help
I believe both these mail-based archive have the same files as the sumex
anonymous ftp archives.

I also would like to get at the Macintosh archives on SIMTEL, but access
through vm1.nodak.edu does not seem to get that for me.

I tried these.  I am a UUCP-only site, with an internet gateway neighbor.
The bitnet address gets bounced by the gateway.  The rice address gets
a "remote protocol error" and "domain not specified" when the gateway
tries to access that host.

Presumably, there is a magic incantation that I don't know.  Sigh.
