Thanks to a great many of good folks who replied to my earlier question about the IP# of wuarchive.wustl.edu. The number is 128.252.135.4 So ftp 128.252.135.4 is functionaly equivalent to ftp wuarchive.wustl.edu Unix folks might want to try out the command 'arp' to get a list things like this. This is disabled at our site so I can't try it myself. The IP# works well on PCs while the .edu address works well on mainframe terminals. By the way, wuarchive.wustl.edu is a good source for public domain and shareware programs (and gif image files etc). It has a 'mirrors' directory that mirrors simtel. wuarchive is also by far faster than simtel. For ibm stuff, look in mirrors/msdos dve@mace.cc.purdue.edu
