- Archives for comp.std.unix or std-unix@uunet.uu.net may be found on UUNET.
- Most of them are compressed, so if you don't have compress, get it first
- (it's in the comp.sources.unix archives).
-
- The comp.std.unix archives may be retrieved by anonymous FTP over the Internet.
- Connect to uunet.uu.net with FTP and log in as user anonymous with password
- guest.
-
- The current volume is in the file
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/archive
- or
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/volume.31
- The previous volume may be retrieved as
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/volume.30.Z
-
- For hosts with direct UUCP connections to UUNET, UUCP transfer from
- host uunet should work with, for example,
- uucp uunet!'~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/archive' archive
- You will have to put a backslash before the ! (i.e., \!)
- if you're using the C shell or bash.
-
- The output of "cd ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix; ls -l" is in
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/list
- and the output of "cd ~ftp/comp.std.unix; ls -l *" is in
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/longlist

- For volumes 15-21, lists of subjects may be found in
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/v??/subjects
- Date:, From:, and Subject: lines are in the files
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/v??/contents

- Volumes 1-10 are filed under the former newsgroup name, mod.std.unix,
- as ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/mod.std.unix.v1,
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/mod.std.unix.v2, etc., through
- ~ftp/usenet/comp.std.unix/mod.std.unix.v10. Volume 3 contains the AT&T public
- domain getopt(3). Volume 10 is a special index volume that catalogs Volumes
- 1-9.
