I have been using ftp to retrieve games and other programs. I have been looking for new sites to use. I have an IBM PS/2 and I was wondering if anyone knew of some new archives that I could look in. Thanks for your time and please respond if you have any info. Thanks again and send help via E-mail. Bryan Niles V092JB9E@UBVMS

There is posted regularly a file that lists most of the known ftp sites, their
address, and information about what is on each site.
I believe it is posted to comp.misc, but I think I just saw a reference to it
on comp.archives.
The file can be ftp-ed from pilot.njin.net. The sub-directories are pretty
helpful.
Once you get this file, you can do searches with grep or a text editor on such
strings as "games","dos","pc","etc".
Regards,
Mike
