If you've been having trouble connecting to the file requester at deep thought, the reason is its been down. We have been trying to upgrade the disk capacity. I bought a pair of 80 meg drives, and spent about two weeks trying to get them to work. I finally gave up, brought the system back up and got two SCSII 80 meg drives, with the A3000 running as a server for them. We're now up and running, and will be until July 1 at which time we may be losing our UUCP connection. If that occurs we will no longer be on the internet, however the connection through wolves will still probably work. Please give the system a call sometime, in addition to the file request mailer, we also have a BBS at the number. I think you'll be plesently surprised. Here are the instructions on using the file request mailer: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome to DeepPost the file request mail daemon at Deep Thought. We only support a few commands at this point: Send a message to FileRequest@deepthot.cary.nc.us. or mcnc!deepthot!filerequest or wolves!deepthot!filerequest If the body of your message contains any of the following keywords, mail will be sent back to you. HELP - Returns this message LIST - Lists the files available FILE: filename - requests a file. NOTE: filename only, do not include the directory. Each file requires its own line in the message. If you have any problems, please feel free to contact me. P.S. Try the internet address first, that should be the most direct connection. ------------------------------------------------------------------ |_o_o|\\ |. o.| || The Jay Denebeim | . | || Software | o | || Distillery | |// Address: UUCP: mcnc.org!deepthot.uucp!jay ====== Internet: jay@deepthot.cary.nc.us BBS:(919)-460-7430 VOICE:(919)-460-6934 -- Please see monthly postings for the disclaimer, the introduction, the charter, and submission instructions.
