- * The Anomaly SCO Software Archives *
-
- The Anomaly SCO Software Archives is an archive of software which has
- been ported to the SCO operating system. All files can be downloaded from
- ANOMALY.
-
- Due to the size of the software listing, it can no longer be posted directly
- to COMP.UNIX.XENIX.SCO, or the related SCO mailing lists. Instead, only the
- instruction file on how to access the archives will be posted. Users can
- obtain the entire file listing from ANOMALY via one of the methods described
- below.
-
- Updates to the list should be mailed to: kd1hz@anomaly.sbs.risc.net
-
- Filenames: The Software List: anomaly!~/SOFTLIST
- Miscellaneous Notes: anomaly!~/NOTES
- All UUCPable Files: anomaly!~/ls-lR
-
- This software listing is maintained by Michael P. Deignan of Small Business
- Systems, Incorporated, and is in no way affiliated with the Santa Cruz
- Operation, SCO's employees, or subsidiaries.

- To download a file, issue the following uucp request on your machine:
-
- uucp anomaly!~/archives/<filename> yoursite!<to-filename>
-
- All files are stored in $PUBDIR/archives on ANOMALY.
-
- If you have a file to donate to the archives, then kindly upload it as
- follows:
-
- uucp yoursite!<filename> anomaly!~/incoming/<filename>
-
- This will store the file in ANOMALY's incoming directory for posting to
- the archives. Please include a mail message to "kd1hz" indicating what the
- file is, etc.
-
- If you are unable to upload a file to us, but have some that you wish to
- contribute, we will be happy to either Anonymous FTP or UUCP them. Just
- leave a message to "kd1hz" with the pertinent information.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Mail-based archive server:
-
- To answer the demand of people without direct Internet connections who wish
- to access the archives, we have established a mail-based server which processes
- requests for files. Note that in order to keep our SMTP connection from
- getting bogged down, we only process *5* megabytes worth of software
- requests PER DAY. This means someone attempting to snarf 15mb of files will
- tie the server up for three days. Users with alternative means of obtaining
- files are encouraged to do so.
-
- To receive instructions on how to use the mail-based archive server, send
- an e-mail message to "snarf@anomaly.sbs.risc.net", with a Subject: of 'snarf'
- and the following two lines starting in column 1:
-
- snarf address [your e-mail address]
- snarf help
-
- For example:
-
- snarf address kd1hz@anomaly.sbs.risc.net
- snarf help
-
- These commands will forward a help file to your reply address. This help
- file contains all information you require on how to obtain software listings
- and uuencoded mailings of archive contents.
-
- Note that if you do not have an address line, or you have other errors in the
- body of your text, you will not get a reply from the server.
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Zmodem/Ymodem/Xmodem/Kermit/Sealink:
-
- All files can be accessed from ANOMALY's "bbs" login, for those users without
- UUCP or FTP access.
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- FTP Access:
-
- Our IP Address is: 155.212.2.2! Or, for those of you with Nameservers, try
- "anomaly.sbs.risc.net"! Again, to reduce network link congestion, we limit
- the number of concurrent FTP sessions. So, if you get are unable to connect,
- just keep trying until a slot becomes available for you.
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Special Note: The archives on ANOMALY are in source code format, with
- exception of the GCC/G++ compilers.
