- The Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries, or CARL, is an on-line service
- providing information from its member libraries as well as select information
- databases. The member libraries include Auraria, CU Health Sciences Center, CU
- Law Library, Denver Public Library, Denver University, Denver University Law
- School, Colorado School of Mines, University of Northern Colorado, University
- of Wyoming, Government Publications, plus about five community colleges, Regis
- College, Colorado State Publications, State Department of Education, Pikes Peak
- Library, MARMOT Library System, and Boulder Public Library. The information
- databases include the following: UnConver -- Article Access, "Facts,"
- Encyclopedia, Metro Denver Facts, Info Colorado, Boston Library Consortium,
- Library News, and New Journal Issues.
-
- CARL is available via Telnet at PAC.CARL.ORG (192.54.81.128) and is pretty
- clear to understand. The Encyclopedia information database, unfortunately,
- requires a valid username on the system.
-
-
- COMPUSERVE ACCESS VIA INTERNET
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- You can access CompuServe via Telnet through the gateway/concentrator at
- CTS.MERIT.EDU (35.1.1.6) by typing "CompuServe" at the "Which Host?" prompt.
-
- CTS.MERIT.EDU (35.1.1.6) is a Cisco terminal server installed primarily for
- users of the Merit computer network in Michigan. This machine has a bunch of
- serial lines going in each direction to/from a Merit Secondary Communications
- Processor (SCP), which is the entity that gives you the "Which Host?" prompt.
-
- Some other of the Merit services (like outbound Telnet from "Which Host?") have
- been intentionally limited so that they only work within Merit. Part of this
- is apparently for reasons of accountability and security (no random hackers
- dialing in and hacking machines in New Zealand) and part is for access control
- (ports are scarce and services have costs so they try to limit who uses the
- thing to paying customers).
-
- CompuServe bills connections via this link as if it were via Telenet (which is
- EXPENSIVE!). It's an X.25 connection somewhere at a decently fast speed.
-
- If you have particular questions about all of the various services that can be
- accessed through Merit, either through the terminal server at CTS.MERIT.EDU
- (35.1.1.6), Telneting directly into a Merit SCP or PCP, or via dial-up access,
- contact merit_computer_network@UM.CC.UMICH.EDU or INFO@MERIT on Bitnet.
-
- For more details about what can be accessed via CTS.MERIT.EDU, stay tuned to
- Network Miscellany for part IV in an upcoming issue of Phrack!
-
-
- DATE AND TIME
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Here's an interesting little trick. Just in case you are on some system
- without the ability to report what time it is by a command, connect via Telnet
- to port 13 of an Internet Unix system. This gives you the time and date and
- then disconnects. Some example systems of this include RUTGERS.EDU,
- MICA.BERKELEY.EDU, UCBVAX.BERKELEY.EDU, and PIKES.COLORADO.EDU (example: Telnet
- RUTGERS.EDU 13).
-
-
- FTP
- ~~~
- File Transfer Protocol or FTP is a way to transfer data or text files over
- the Internet from remote sites. The only problem is figuring out where
- something is that you want to get.
-
- The following is a list of sites accepting anonymous FTP user=anonymous,
- password=login. It was compiled by Jon Granrose with the help of a number of
- contributors as well as a couple of lists that had been started. If you have
- any comments, additions, or corrections, mail them to odin@UCSCB.UCSC.EDU or
- odin@ucscb.UUCP or 74036.3241@COMPUSERVE.COM.

- MELVYL ONLINE CATALOG
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- This service is provided by the University of California schools. It is
- available via Telnet by connecting to MELVYL.UCOP.EDU (31.1.0.1). It basically
- provides information searching capabilities and provides literary sources where
- the "keyword" that you used may be found. It is relatively self-explanatory.
-
-
- NAMESERVERS
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- By connecting to port 101 on certain Internet systems, you have connected to
- the nameserver of that domain. To get a list of all of the subdomains of the
- main domain, type ALL. A sample system is VIOLET.BERKELEY.EDU but be
- forewarned that the output from typing ALL is *EXTREMELY* long on this
- particular system! (Example: Telnet VIOLET.BERKELEY.EDU 101).
-
-
- PUBLIC ACCESS UNIX INFORMATION
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- For those of you that are still interested in more information on the Public
- Access Unix systems that were listed in Network Miscellany II featured in
- Phrack 29, here are a few more details. For specific information concerning
- the nodes discussed, refer to the previous article.
-
- For those of you who are not local to a Public Access Unix system, Portal can
- be reached via PC-Pursuit for $25 a month and a $10 access fee for "portal"
- (off-peak). For information, contact John Little (jel@CUP.PORTAL.COM).
-
-
- The Big Electric Cat (dasys1.UUCP) claims to be cheaper than most well-
- connected public sites. They have special billing for "organizational"
- accounts if you're interested and their standard rate is $5 a month for an
- account (no time restrictions). The Big Electric Cat offers a superset of the
- USENET newsgroups as well as unrestricted mail (!), a simplified set of prompts
- for most system functions, games, and several other features
-
-
- The World (WORLD.STD.COM) in Brookline, MA (Boston) is a Sun4/280 running
- Sun/OS 4.0.3 (Unix.) They offer electronic mail (to most anyplace), USENET,
- ClariNet and general Unix access. They dial UUNET and other sites frequently.
-
- To create an account you just dial (617)739-WRLD (9753) and login as user "new"
- (the login prompt gives instructions). They ask for some info (name, address,
- etc.) and a MasterCard or Visa account.
-
- Rates for The World
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- All times are East Coast, USA.
-
- INITIAL SIGN-UP $25.00 fee, applied to first month's charges.
- BASIC ACCESS RATES 8AM-6PM $8.00/hour (Monday thru Friday)
- 6PM-12M $5.00/hour
- 12M-8AM $2.50/hour
- Weekends and holidays, 8AM-12M, $5/hour.
-
- Disk Quota
- ~~~~~~~~~~
- A "byte" is equivalent to one character of storage. A disk block is 1024 bytes.
- First 512 disk blocks No Charge Additional Quota
- $0.01/block/month (approx. $10/MB/month)
- Note that disk charges are based on your requested disk quota (system imposed
- limit on your usage) and not your actual usage. Disk quota charges are
- pro-rated.
-
- Electronic Mail
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- No charge for electronic mail between users of The World. No charge for
- first 512 blocks of mail per month. $0.01 per block of mail thereafter in
- any given month (approx. $10/MB/month).
-
- CPU Usage
- ~~~~~~~~~
- In general, they do not charge for these resources for typical accounts
- interested in electronic communications. Customers who wish to use their
- system for compute or memory intensive applications should contact their
- office for rates.
-
- USENET
- ~~~~~~
- Local usage, no charge. Network usage, no charge at this time.
-
- Printing And Fax
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- To be announced.
-
- Upload or Download Software
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- No additional charge.
-
-
- UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY NETWORK INFORMATION
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- This is a service which I, personally, have found to be extremely useful.
- If you need network information on virtually any system, connect to the
- University of California at Berkeley Network Information at JADE.BERKELEY.EDU
- Port 117 (example: Telnet JADE.BERKELEY.EDU 117). Once you are logged into
- the system automatically, it prompts you for a command or type "?" for a list
- of commands. The help menu is relatively easy to understand. You can get
- Bitnet network table listings or Internet numerical addresses or Internet mail
- exchanger listings or UUCP node information or UUCP node paths plus more. It's
- very useful in case you're having difficulty sending mail to a particular node
- from your own node or if you're trying to connect to a system via FTP or Telnet
- that your system doesn't recognize (i.e. get the numerical address from the
- server and FTP or Telnet to the numerical address).
