Can anyone help me with the name of another ftp server? I have been using BITFTP for several months because I don't have ftp access to the net. Today I received the following reply to a request for a file: >> 19:01:46 > FTP ux1.cso.uiuc.edu 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. * * >> * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Are there any other servers out there that I can use? This is probably going to affect a lot of people onthe net who don't have ftp access. -- Greg Bengeult UUCP: ...!uw-beaver!ssc-vax!bengeult // //| MailStop 8Y-62 INTERNET: bengeult@ssc-vax.boeing.com // //|| P.O.

If you can post a reponse to this plea, please do so. If you must e-mail a response, then please include me. As a matter of fact, since our system cleans out the old files before they become truly old, could you please mail me the response, even if you post it? Thanks awfully from the folks who are bringing you "I CLAUDIUS" again. Watch your local listings, and please contribute to your local Public Television Station. ----- Keith Ellsworth Editor and Amiga Nut Public Broadcasting Service

IT seems to quite popular with sites for which BITFTP has never been an option (Europe, Australia). It's currently undergoing a major directory shuffle, but the collection is easily to find stuff in. We try to keep it up to date with most of the newer stuff from AB20; you won't find complete Fish disks like you find on UX1 or ISCA, though. There's about 3000 files there now. -- .../Ed Preferrred: Ed.Wilts@BSC.Galaxy.BCSystems.Gov.BC.CA Ed Wilts Alternate: EdWilts@BCSC02.BITNET (604) 389-3430 B.C.
