[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Cleveland freenet

edgincd2@mentor.cc.purdue.edu (Chris Edgington) (10/18/90)

I recently applied for an account on a system called the Cleveland Free-Net
project.  I received my account info via mail last week, but cannot find the
internet address for freenet.  Does anyone know what it is or know where I 
could find it?? BTW, I already looked in the listing of anonymous FTP sites.

Thanks

Here goes:
fncom1.cwru.edu  aka  129.88.8.75
fncom2.cwru.edu  aka  129.88.8.76
fncom3.cwru.edu  aka  129.88.8.77
fncom3.cwru.edu  aka  129.88.8.78


Good luck!

For Internet access I'd recommend:

The address to use is freenet-in-a.cwru.edu.  At the moment, this points
to 129.22.8.82, but CWRU suggests that you use the domain name.  The admins
are shuffling computers at the moment (they just got some new SPARCservers),
and the address may change, but the name "freenet-in-a.cwru.edu" will always
point to a valid machine.
