- Actually, all these machines - headcrash, tornado, monsoon, avalanche,
- planecrash, etc, etc - are equivalent in terms of accessibility to
- pub/AnimeB/. You can simply 'finger @ocf.berkeley.edu' to get the names
- of all the ocf disasters. Usually ocf/typhoon/gate is so overworked it's
- not a good idea to further tapping it's cpu usage by running ftp on it,
- but if all else fails (the disasters may occur independently or simulta-
- neously) try it as your last resort. Otherwise, on rare and happy occasions
- when ocf's ftp actually works, just choose your favorite disaster and
- stick with it.
-
- A good practice before you ftp is to finger any one of the non-typhoon
- machines. If it refuses connection, avoid it. If it does give you a list
- of users, look for the machine with least users and still appears to be
- running (i.e. avoid anything with 20 hrs idol users).
-
- And if none of the above works. Welcome to Occasionally Crashing Follies.
