The AOL FAQ answers frequently asked questions (FAQs) about America Online. This is the manual that America Online never wrote. There are chapters devoted to mail, chat rooms, downloading, instant messages, message boards, and much more. Over 120 pages o
f information. There are also plenty of money-saving tips. The appendices list AOL keywords, smileys, and online abbreviations. There's even a QuickTime viewer built in. The FAQ will be updated monthly.

The FAQ was designed to be easy to use. You don't need anything to open it. Just doubleclick and it opens. There are color illustrations and easy, step-by-step instructions. You don't have to read the FAQ from start to finish.; it was designed for info s
urfing. You can quickly find the information you need using the Find command and the hypertext Table of Contents. Important information is marked with a Note! icon.

Here are a few of the things the FAQ explains how to do:

*compose mail in the free areas

Subject: Summary of responses to Ethernet-Appletalk query [*]

Enclosed, as promised, the replies I received to my query about
connecting an AppleTalk network of Macs to a campus-wide
Ethernet.

For less than eight Macs, it looks like it's worth buying individual
Ethernet adaptors (e.g. NuvoLink), but beyond that it's worth
investing in a router from Cayman or Shiva (if you can tolerate
the narrower bandwidth).

I haven't made up my mind yet, but I'll probably go the NuvoLink route.

Apparently the correct way of emailing to the Internet FROM CompuServe is to
preface the Internet address with '>Internet:'. i.e. of the following form

This is consistent with other message forms, such as fax ('>Fax:....') used

This is the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list for comp.sys.mac.comm
=======================================================================

This list of frequently asked questions and answers is intended to help
reduce the number of "often asked questions" that make the rounds here
in comp.sys.mac.comm. Since comp.sys.mac.comm is intended as a forum to
discuss telecommunication (and related issues) that are specific to the
Macintosh, most questions about modems, telecommunications in general,
and other non-Macintosh specific communication questions are not listed
here. The proper newsgroup for such questions is usually comp.dcom.modems.

This list is posted periodically (about once a month) to the Usenet
groups comp.sys.mac.comm, news.answers, and comp.answers. Latest versions
of the FAQ can be retrieved via anonymous FTP from the following sites:

From: Bob Funchess <[e-mail]>
Subject:      Downloading binary files

Maybe the archives should have a file on downloading binary-type files, it's
a question which comes up fairly often...

GIF files are binary.  To FTP a GIF file, you have to tell ftpd this.  In most
implementations of FTP you must say TYPE I (or TYPE IMAGE) followed by TYPE L 8
(or TYPE TENEX).  Sometimes the second one isn't necessary, but I have never
had it create problems.  This will get a file from a FTPserver to a local host.

Now, using Kermit, you dial up the local host and say (on the host end)
SET FILE TYPE BINARY (or whatever the syntax is on your implementation)
and on the Mac end pick Data fork, Binary file.  This works for GIF files.
For most other files set the options on the Mac end to MacBinary.

Hi, netters,

    Attached to this note is a binhexed, stuffed text file listing most of
the FirstClass BBSes worldwide as of November 15, 1992.  These BBSes have
an excellent graphical user interface (developed by SoftArc of Canada).  To
access them, you may dial them directly with a terminal emulator such as ZTerm
and then download the GUI software.  Alternately, you can download FirstClass
User 2.07, available from numerous FTP sites worldwide, including Sumex.
There are a mixture of free and fee access sites in the list.

     More than 50 of these BBSes are now part of the OneNet, an ever-expanding
global network of FirstClass systems.  This net is hubbed at OneNet Los Altos,
415-948-1349, in Los Altos, CA.  I will be posting a list of OneNet Members
in the near future, but you can find out your nearest site today by dialing
into OneNet Los Altos.  Note that most of the systems in the OneNet have
no access fees whatsoever.  Thus, this is indeed a great opportunity for all
Macintosh modem users.

     Enjoy the list, and happy BBSing!

From: Raymond Beausoleil <[e-mail]>

About six weeks ago, Bob Jopson of Bell Labs asked me to write a short article
on the rudiments of "ftp'ing" for "Optics and Photonics News," the monthly
magazine for members of the Optical Society of America. He certainly didn't ask
*me* because I am an expert; rather, I'm a fairly typical user who knows just
enough Unix to ftp, read mail, etc.

With much help, I managed to write the two-part article below. The first part
covers the ftp process itself, while the second part describes some approaches
to downloading and decoding Mac and MS-DOS files from a Unix host to your
microcomputer. In particular, Mac folks can find out how to get mcvert up and
running on their system.

The article below is somewhat longer and more detailed than the edited version
that will appear in O&PN. If you like it, I recommend that you archive it in
the directory /info-mac/help as ftp-primer.txt.

Subject:  Sumex & FTP

   Some folks on comp.sys.mac.comm have been enquiring about how to do ftp
sessions with sumex, now that the 25 user limit has been imposed. The obvious
solution is to run your ftp session at 5AM Pacific, but for left-coasters,
and many of us to the east, that's a little difficult.

   One solution is to run your ftp session via a script. The following is
one I've been using for a long time, and it seems to work quite well.

   In order to make the script capable of autonomously logging in (without
your being there to give username and password), you need a '.netrc' file
in your home directory. This file should have read and write permissions for
the user only (chmod 600 .netrc), and be of the following format:

machine sumex-aim.stanford.edu,     login anonymous, password [e-mail]

   Fill in your own email address for the password.

High Speed Modem Musings (version 1.1)

Hi all,

I've now spent a number of months with a new V.32bis (14.4K) FAX/modem that
gave me a variety of little fits until I finally got everything running
just right.  Upgrading from a 2400 baud modem, I found I was mentally
unprepared for the many complications introduced by the much higher speeds.
The new modems are NOT always plug-n-play replacements for older models.

While quietly researching solutions, I noticed quite a few postings in
different lists/digests (such as this one) from people who are suffering
from problems similar to those I puzzled over.  In the hope of helping
someone else, I posted the problems I had and solutions that worked for me.
Since that first posting in mid-January of '94, I've received a surprising

From: [e-mail] (Peter Szolovits)
Subject: Summary of advice on HST modems

Several days ago, I asked for help figuring out how to run my US Robotics
Courier HST modem more efficiently for communication between my home Mac and a
Unix box at the office (via a networked terminal concentrator).  The summary
results are short:

1.  Use zmodem rather than kermit, to avoid various delays in kermit
handshaking (even with 1000-byte packets).  info-mac/comm/zterm-085.hqx
contains a shareware communication program that supports zmodem, and I was also
pointed to the latest White Knight and MicroPhone, both commercial products.
At the Unix end, you need an implementation of zmodem, which is available in
info-mac/unix/zmodem-part*.hqx.  (I had to get rid of a couple of spurious
newlines in the Makefile to get it to make.)  The ZTerm/zmodem combination does
indeed give me about 93% of theoretical max line utilization on large text
files at 9600 baud.  I've had a bit of trouble uploading MacBinary II files,
though not consistently.  For straight text dump, ZTerm can't keep up with
scrolling at 9600 baud, so the buffer overruns and you lose captured data on a

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi all

Internet Archivist is an  HyperCard Archivist file of numerous
informations on Internet.

This is update # 94:3 built with the new version 4.2 of
The Archivist and HyperCard 2.2

The Archivist version 4.2

Version 4.1 has been available on SUMEX-AIM for nearly a year
in the /TEXT domain. It is a Hypercard document database that
can hold small or rather large documents, the limitation being
the size of your hard drive up to a maximum of 512 megs per
Archivist file.

It can be considered as an electronic binder than can multiply
itself to form new binders for your own purposes. With it is
attached a small "Read me" file. This document database must
be used on a Macintosh with a monitor size of at least 480
pixels by 400 pixels or any monitor bigger than that.

HyperCard or HyperCard Player version 2,2 (or better) must
be used accordingly with its Home file. HyperCard must be
partitioned to a minimum of 4 megs RAM.

Those of you scripting with HyperCard, AppleScript, SuperCard,
MacroMedia Lingo etc... can use The Archivist to hold all your
precious routines...

If you are beginning a Ms or Ph.D., The Archivist will become
your best friend!

If you navigate on the Internet and download numerous text
files, The Archivist will be of great utility. In short, anyone
having to manage text files will like to use this new version.

This new version supports colour, Page Setup... and
FAX/Modem printing.

Happy archiving!

 Can you tell me the number you use in DC? My parents just moved there, and

Subject: [*] internet abbreviations

There has been some renewed interest in internet/usenet abbreviations and I
notice another list has been added to the info/comm directory. The two lists,
namely, internet-acronyms.txt and usenet-acronyms.txt pretty much overlap. In
the interest of clarity I have combined the list in my original posting with
the list in the usenet-acronyms.txt posted by Daniel J. Hofferth. Perhaps this
list should replace both of the previously mentioned files. Also, the file
should be called internet (or usenet) "abbreviations", not internet (or usenet)
"acronyms". Acronyms can be spoken as a word (e.g. NASA) whereas abbreviations
are just the letters (e.g. BTW). Some on the list *are* acronyms of course
(e.g. MUD, SNAFU) but most are not. This seems picky but someone pointed this
out to me the day after I posted internet-acronyms.txt.

========
For those newcomers to the internet who are confused by terms such as IMHO,
BTW and RTFM, the following is a list of commonly used abbreviations. If you
read the digest long enough you will probably come across all of these. Please

Colleagues:

A few days back I posted a Word 5-formatted version of Eric Behr's
excellent guide on care & feeding of MacTCP and kinfolk. Unfortunately,
I had formatted it using the Arial font (my favorite), which isn't
very common, judging from the various letters I've received.

To save prospective users of this file the problems associated with
font substitution, I submit again the document, this time formatted
with the well-known Helvetica font. The table of contents has been
updated to reflect the new pagination.

Moderators, please use this file to replace the one found in
/info-mac/comm/info/mac-tcp-word5.hqx and please forgive the
double trouble.

Enjoy,

Juan

P.S. Yep, this file turned out to be smaller than the previous. Might
     be cause it is a Stuffit SEA (don't remember if I compacted the
     previous one....). Anyways, enjoy the reduced download time... ;)

How To Connect A Mac To A Workstation
May 14, 1992

There are two ways to connect a Mac to a workstation: via Ethernet, or
via a serial line.  Ethernet is faster, but more expensive.  All of the
software described herein is shareware or public domain.  See below for
where to get it.

ETHERNET

As you would expect with computers, there are several ways to hook your
Mac into an Ethernet.

1.  Buy an Ethernet card, and put it in your Mac II, SE, or SE/30.
2.  Buy an Ethernet box, and hook it up to any Mac with a SCSI port.
3.  Buy a LocalTalk to Ethernet converter box.

Hi everybody!

Last November, I sent out a query to many listservs and Usenet groups,
trying to
get an idea of what people are doing as far as setting up Internet
services on
the Macintosh.  I had *MANY* good responses, but I've been swamped with
mucho
projects, and been busy at home too, moving into my first home!!!
Finally, I've
had a chance to summarize the responses, which I'm submitting to
Info-Mac.  I'm
sending this memo out to all the groups that received the original
memo, to let
everyone know that it's there.  If you wait a few days, it should
propagate to
all the sumex mirror sites.  Thanks for everyone's input.

I think "Mac-OS-Internet-Services.txt" should go into the /comm/info
directory.

I upgraded my IIcx about 3 months ago and I forgot about upgrading MacTCP to

Many universities have site licenses for MedLine--but require access
through an IBM LAN only, with Mac software permitting that access through
the university LAN currently unavailable. Although you can get an
individual license and access the library through telnet, the slick access
through proper search software has been unavailable--and individuals were
not allowed to use their university site licenses to access as individuals,
making the cost of an account prohibitive for most individual users.

posting from the author.  At present, Pegasus for the Mac requires a Novell
Netware server.  Apparently a future version will not.

Moderator, please post the following...

To any and all who are curious:

Here is a collection of responses that I received regarding my question
about obtaining a personal internet connection.  I've abandoned that
particular quest until some rich relative dies or personal internet
connections become more common.  The following letters contain some
information (mostly depressing) about getting an internet connection
and also other info about various new online services (the next best
thing).  This collection is rather long (1400+ lines) and therefore
belongs in the report directory.  Note, this is a _collection_ of the
responses, not really a report.  Of course Info-Mac isn't really a
_digest_ either! ;)

Recently I posted a question about how to connect localtalk printers
(like our old Apple LaserWriter) to ethernet, so our macs on ethernet
could print to it.

A number of people replied with extremely helpful suggestions.  Their
suggestions and my own research is summarized below.  The actual mail
messages follow the summary.

A huge thanks to everyone who replied!

Subject: getting .z files and nixpub long list (01/23/93) submission

A few days ago some people asked about how to transfer, decompress
files with .z format. After some simple experiments I got everything
through. My way may not be elegent, but it could be done under the
restricted resoources as I have now.

Ok, here it is.


How to do a file transfer from unix box with .Z format through a IBM
mainframe to a local Macintosh:

1.     binary ftp
     (preserve the 8-bit character compressed format?)

2.     compress fn z fm (decompress lrecl 128
     invoke the compress utility that is available in the CMS version
     and able to deal with .Z, the unix compressed format. lrecl 128
     is used because CMS Kermit can do binary file transfer only for
     file with logical record length less than 128 bytes (unit?).
     option decompress is used to decompress file which is named as fn
     z fm.

3.     Kermit
     invoke CMS Kermit

4.     set file binary

5.     uncheck all the conversion and filter options of the local
     telecomm program

6.     check binary file transfer (not MacBinary) for local telecomm
     programs's  Kermit file transfer protocol

7.     do the file transfer

8.     use your favor utility/text processor to replace line feed
     character, (ASCII 10, or <LF>) with carriage return character
     (ASCII 13, or <CR>)

Following these procedures, and with the help of White Knight and
BBEdit, I could successfully get nixpub_long_list from ftp site
pit-manager.mit.edu under directory /pub/usenet/comp.misc/. The file
format is very close to the format of the old list found in the
Info-Mac archive.

As for nixpub_long_list, it gives information for --Open Access UNIX
(*NIX) Sites [both Fee and No Fee]--. This list was published on
January 28, 1993. It should be useful to people who are interested in
Internet availability, from simple net mail to ftp, telnet, news
feed, etc. For more details about such connection, check out

Hi guys,

There have been some wuestions asked re the programs: RevRDist vs. FolderBolt

 I need to evaluate these three programs in preparation for protecting some

 Since I don't want to have to closely watch every single drive for contraband

No need to post this to the digest - it's already shown up there, in full,
by mistake.  What I really need is to have this archived as:
