- In the US uunet archives all of the usenet sources. I cant guarantee
- that the latest version of monitor is there, but I have gotten older versions.
- uunet is accessable via UUCP dialin on their 900 number.
-
- Or you can arrange to have an account with ALTERNET so
- you can pay monthly. So , there is no bigotry involved. You just have
- to know how to navigate.
-
- Here is an excerpt from their help file:
- 1. How to reach UUNET's 900 number via uucp
-
- Here are some sample a L.sys or Systems file lines suitable for
- UUNET's 900 number:
-
- # Simple line.
- uunet Any ACU 19200 1-900-468-7727 in:--in:--in: uucp
- #
- # Set up for a Telebit.
- uunet Any cua0 19200 cua0 "" ATX0S50=255S111=30DT19004687727\r CONNECT "" login: uucp
-
- Modify as appropriate for your site, of course, to deal with your
- local telephone system and uucp version.
-
- All modems on the 900 lines are Telebit T2500s. Note that these
- modems first answer with V.32, then at 2400, 1200, and last with PEP
- tones. This "900" number charges $.50US per minute to the caller.
-
- 2. Where the files are
-
- This file of instructions exists as the file uunet!~/info/archive-help
-
- uunet!~/ls-lR.Z contains a list of all files available. This is the
- compressed output of an `ls -lR' command. This file is updated each
- night. (Note this file is currently about 900 Kbytes *compressed*).
- Information on other indexes can be found in uunet!~/index/README.
- Other information files are listed in uunet!~/info/README
