4.0  The Mother Lode of Anonymous FTP Sites

   Throughout this document, sites are listed for specific documents.
   Most are only indexes to more information.  A big problem is

RFC 1402                 Searching for Treasure             January 1993


   searching through all this information to find what you want.  One of
   the best search methods is Archie, described below.

   Several sites contain large repositories of files and other sites
   that are the source for specific programs such as Kermit, the public
   domain file transfer program.

   4.05 archie

      One of the best ways of searching for a program available via
      anonymous FTP is with archie (Archive Server Listing Service),
      several of these servers scattered throughout the world.  The
      fastest one I have found is the Advanced Network & Services, Inc.
      located in the United States.

      Archie goes to every site that offers anonymous FTP files,
      collects the file structure from that site, and places it in a
      database it can search.

      A real-life example.  I was reading an article about Windows in
      the July 1992 issue of PC World, and it mentioned a shareware
      program called ZiPaper on page 212.  The name of the program is
      zipapr.zip.  I can use Archie to locate this program.

      Source:

      telnet archie.ans.net

      login as archie

      At the archie prompt type

      prog zipapr.zip

      The response is

      Host wuarchive.wustl.edu  (128.252.135.2)
      Last updated 17:22 13 July 1992

         Location:  /mirrors3/archive.umich.edu/msdos/mswindows/desktop
          FILE      rw-rw-r--   41984  Jan 30 1991  zipapr.zip

      This tells you the file is available via anonymous FTP to
      wuarchive.wustl.edu in the directory
      mirrors3/archive.umich.edu/msdos/mswindows/desktop and the file is
      zipapr.zip.

   4.1  Washington University (anonymous FTP)

      Washington University represents perhaps one of the most popular
      sites for software on the network.  The Mirrors directory contains
      a copy of all of the wsmr-simtel20.army.mil files. Wsmr-simtel20-
      army.mil is the originator and keeper of major amounts of public
      domain software.  Their site, however, is often overloaded and
      difficult to connect to.

      You will find enough software in the Mirrors directory to keep you
      busy for the rest of your life.  The MS-DOS and Macintosh
      subdirectories contain files for those specific machines.

      Anonymous FTP to wuarchive.wustl.edu
      cd mirrors

      cd msdos

      For income tax time cd taxes
      For unzipping files cd zip, type binary, and get pkz110eu.exe
      For education software cd education
      For graphics files cd giff, tiff or graphics

      cd macintosh

      For the Macintosh there are directories for applications, inits,
      sounds, reviews, and many more.

   4.2  KERMIT (anonymous FTP)

      Kermit is a public domain file transfer protocol available for
      just about all microcomputers, minicomputers, andmainframes.  It
      is very popular and has been has been used at computer facilities
      everywhere.

      Anonymous FTP to watsun.cc.columbia.edu

      cd kermit
      get read.me

      For executable versions of kermit:

      cd bin

      get READ.ME file and read for specifics of what file to get.

      For the IBM PC, I get msvibm.exe after typing binary to activate
      the binary transfer mode.

5.0  Network Information Centers - NICs

   Contact NICs if you want information on what networking is all about
   and how you can connect.  They can put you in contact with the
   individuals in your area who can help you get a network connection.
   They can also provide assistance if you don't know who else to ask
   about network topics.

6.0  Network Statistics

   If you would like to publish statistics in your newsletter about your
   institution's network traffic into and out of the NSFNET backbone,
   you can obtain information on either the packets or bytes sent.  I
   prefer bytes which can be translated into an understandable figure.

        backbone traffic by packets or bytes (document)

7.0  Campuswide Information Systems - CWISes

   The information in this section is intended primarily for those  who
   are providing access methods from their own computing environments.
   Although standards have been proposed, there are no "packages" that
   give you access to all of the information presented here.  What The
   Ohio State University and several other universities have done is
   provide a menu to the user that accesses these services and databases
   behind the scenes.  In fact, I  had to refer to the shell scripts to
   look up the network addresses of these machines, because I rely on
   the menu for access as well.

   As the name implies, information systems provide access to
   information the user knowing exactly how to get to it.  In this way,
   the network is invisible to end users.  All they need to know is what
   they want, not the command structure needed to actually get the
   information.

   At present, the menu system seems to be the easiest way in In the
   background is a knowbot, a program that knows how to go out and
   locate services on the network using a keyword search.

   You can connect to the following sites for a demonstration of their
   capabilities.

   Many CWIS systems are converting to Gopher (see section 8.96).
   Hytelnet (see section 2.15) also has complete listings of CWIS
   systems.
