- Mac.Archive.Umich.Edu is still seriously crippled, ftp-wise, due to a
- very swamped network (so the sysadmin of the machine we currently use
- for FTP severely limited the access) and we don't have any other
- departments providing ftp service (I'm working on this as much as I
- can... but some people seem pretty nervous about letting people ftp
- to our archives through their machines, sigh)...
-
- In about a month or two, this ftp access problem will disappear by
- magic. I'm keeping quiet until I'm sure it's set up and ready!
-
- You can access the archives NO PROBLEMO through two other ways...
-
- AFS access (type in "ls /afs/umich.edu/group/itd/archive/mac" on your
- machine.. if you see the familiar mac.archive directories, make a link
- in your home directory to our archives and NEVER ftp again!)...
-
- or Gopher access (gopher to the host "gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu", for one).
-
- To get files to us (and to Sumex and Comp.Binaries.Mac and some other
- ftp sites at the same time), just e-mail the files to
- "macgifts@mac.archive.umich.edu".
-
- And to get on our new files mailing list, drop me a note at
- "mac-recent-request@mac.archive.umich.edu".
