[Note: Users outside Dartmouth should not put files on Dartvax; please use a local system.]
Dartvax has a special directory where users may drop off files for others to download; the full name of this directory is ╥/pub/dropoff.╙ To get to this directory from /pub/mac you should choose ╥pub╙ from the pop-up menu above the file list. Then double-click on ╥dropoff╙ to enter that directory.
To put a file onto Dartvax click on the Put File... button. You will be prompted to select the file you wish to send; since this is just a tutorial you can pick any file you wish, though you probably want to avoid very large files. You will then be asked to provide a name to give the file on Dartvax. This dialog box also gives you a chance to pick a file format from a pop-up menu. Fetch will usually pick an appropriate name and format so you can simply press the OK button.
The file will be transferred to Dartvax and you will be able to watch its progress in the status panel on the right side of the Fetch window. When the transfer is complete the name of the file you put will appear in the file name list. Since we do not want to clutter this directory you should select that name and choose Delete directory or file... from the Remote menu.
Congratulations -- you have just transferred files to and from your Macintosh! You can learn more about Fetch by consulting the help topics under ╥Reference.╙ Please send mail to Fetch@dartmouth.edu if you have any comments, questions, or criticisms.
