The primary DOOM archive site infant2.sphs.indiana.edu may still be
temporarily out of service. Jim Pitts (the site administrator) says it
will be down for about a week as of Friday Aug 26. Please be patient.
This article is being automatically posted once a day. Please forgive
any posts after infant2 comes back on line. :-)
Here is an exerpt from the Alt.Games.Doom Resource Guide:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4] Accessing DOOM-related files at FTP sites.
==========================================
[Editor's notes:
Fri Aug 26 - Jim Pitts announced infant2 will be down for about a week.
Mon Aug 29 - Jim said the network feeding infant2 is being worked on.
Thu Sep 01 - Jim has implemented a temporary FTP incoming directory to
receive uploads intended for infant2 to take the pressure
off when infant2 comes back up. This is for UPLOADS ONLY.
Uploaded files will not be readable for downloads. The
site name and directory: mimosa.astro.indiana.edu/incoming.
Fri Sep 02 - Jim said FSP (not FTP, yet) access to infant2 is now back.

infant2.sphs.indiana.edu [129.79.234.115] /pub/doom Indiana, USA

Use your favorite FTP program to log in using a username of "anonymous"
or "ftp" and your e-mail address as the password (e.g. me@my.mail.host).
Use /pub/doom/incoming for uploads. WADs and LMPs eagerly accepted.
The /pub/doom/id directory has the shareware version of DOOM.
The /pub/doom/wads directory tree has many, many user-created WADs.
Also see /pub/doom/FILELIST and NEWFILES for current file information.
