I attempted to reach ab20 via BITFTP this evening.
I received the following message in reply:
17:58:31 > FTP ab20.larc.nasa.gov UUENCODE
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * BITFTP is no longer able to provide service to * *
* * nodes that are not directly on EARN or BITNET * *
* * or NetNorth. Your node appears to be * *
* * accessible from BITNET only via a mail-only * *
* * gateway. If you believe that your node is * *
* * directly on BITNET or NetNorth or EARN, please * *
* * send mail to MAINT@PUCC specifying your * *
* * BITNET/EARN/NetNorth node name. * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Anyone have any ideas on what this message means?
Is it saying that it can't serve my site, because it isn't on BITNET?
If so, are there any other ways of reaching ab20?
Dave
