This is James Cook University Anonymous ftp service.
Files available for anonymous ftp are listed in the file pub.find.Z.

All files in the JCU anonymous FTP area (ftp.jcu.edu.au:/pub) ending with
.gz have been compressed with `gzip'
.Z have been compressed with `compress'
.z have been compresses with `pack'
Gzip can uncompress `compress' files(which end in .Z) and `pack' files
(which end in `.z'). This is possible because the various
decompression algorithms are not patented---only compression is.
The gzip program is available from any GNU mirror site in shar, tar, or
gzipped tar format (for those who already have a prior version of gzip and
want faster data transmission). It works on virtually every unix system,
MSDOS, OS/2, and VMS.
More information about the contents of the JCU archive may be found in
the file `pub.find.gz' in this directory.
Although we perform periodic updates to this FTP site, more current downloads
and resources can be found at http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au. Access to the
AARNet mirror is OnNet traffic and free to staff and students of JCU
while connected via our main campuses. NB: Connection Off-campus will be
metered.
http://www.akamai.com is another content provider offering free download
to staff and students of JCU while connected via our main campuses.
AARNet subscribe to the Akamai service including this fee in our base
subscription. NB: Connection Off-campus will be metered.
