You may pickup a newer version (also including a LaTeX variant) from our archive. Details below. We, Computer Science department, Utrecht University, are running an anonymous FTP server on one of our systems. In addition to the FTP service we're also running a mail server, because we *know* how you feel when there's plenty of beautiful software around that you can't reach. We've been in that situation for a long long time... --> How to get 'socket-primer' via anonymous FTP: Site: archive.cs.ruu.nl [131.211.80.5] Login: "anonymous" or "ftp" Password: your own email address (you@your_domain) File: DOC/socket-primer.shar.Z --> How to get 'socket-primer' via e-mail from our mail-server: NOTE: In the following I have assumed that your mail address is "fred_flintstone@stone.age.edu"; of course you must substitute your own address for this. ** PLEASE USE VALID DOMAIN ADDRESSES. DO NOT USE ADDRESSES ** ** WITH ! and @ MIXED !!!! BITNETTERS USE USER@HOST.BITNET ** Send the following message to mail-server@cs.ruu.nl or the old-fashioned path alternative uunet!mcsun!hp4nl!ruuinf!mail-server begin path fred_flintstone@stone.age.edu (SUBSTITUTE *YOUR* ADDRESS) send DOC/socket-primer.shar.Z end The path command can be deleted if we receive a valid from address in your message. If this is the first time you use our mail server, we suggest you first issue the request: send HELP A complete "ls-lR" listing of the archive is kept in the top-level directory, it will be updated every night. To get it, issue the command: send ls-lR.Z That's all for now. If you encounter problems using the FTP service and/or the mail-server, feel free to drop me a line (by e-mail, please). --[ Edwin ]-- -- Edwin Kremer (SysAdm), Dept. of Computer Science, Utrecht University Padualaan 14, P.O.
