I just tried to ftp to archive.afit.af.mil to get a new set of keplerian
elements and IT'S GONE!! "Unknown host". Please tell me the nameserver
here is screwy, else tell us all where there is another site (not sight
or cite).

This is common, especially on weekends. Just wait a few hours or days
and try again. Not to worry.
You can also get elements by telnetting (not FTP) to the raidbbs at
raidbbs.gsfc.nasa.gov Login is "raid" and password is "goddard1". You
then follow the instructions... The interface is your typical cheezy
BBS, so there is a price to pay, mainly in the time it takes to get
element sets off of it. But, on the good side, they are the most recent
elements you will find, usually a day or two fresher than on
archive.afit.af.mil

Not being familiar with any of the tracking software that's available, are
there any packages that display the satellites (preferabbly a great many)
orbiting with a point of view from, oh say, 20,000 miles up, and about the
same out in some direction? Basically a 3D presentation of the positions?
