Every now and then, someone mentions the Lancs PDSOFT archives.
Can anyone tell me how to access these?

FTP access is only available on Janet. To get stuff from outside
Janet (ie Internet), you will have to use the archive request
server.

This is also normally available only on Janet; what you'll have to
do is mail pdsoft@pdsoft.lancs.ac.uk and ask to be registered
to use it. Then, to get full information on how to use it, mail
a message saying
   help
to archive-server@pdsoft.lancs.ac.uk
