RFC 1689   Networked Information Retrieval: Tools and Groups August 1994


  Latest version number:          archie 3.1

  Brief Scope and Characteristics:

  This is the  commercial inmplementation of the archie system,
  replacing a version done as a Masters project at McGill University
  during the period 1990-1992.  It comes with an archie telnet client
  that offers a number of minor improvements over earlier versions.
  Additional releases, with a number of additional improvements, are
  planned in the coming months.

  Approximate number of such servers in use:
   Currently about 27 (not all are publicly available)

  General comments:

  Most users access archie through a freeware or public domain client
  program.  These are available from most archie servers via anonymous
  FTP.  Check out the archie directory on any of the publicly available
  archie servers or the banner message when logging into any of the
  archie telnet clients for more details.

RFC 1689   Networked Information Retrieval: Tools and Groups August 1994


  Brief Scope and Characteristics:

  This program provides a simple command line interface to the archie
  server system, using the Prospero protocol.  Written in C, it has
  been ported to MSDOS and OS2.

  General comments:

  This program should not be confused with the archie system telnet
  interface, which is a program that runs on the archie server itself.

  Future plans:  Not known

    archie.wide.ad.jp    133.4.3.6       (Japanese server)

  Client software should be supported at all of these sites.
  Additional sites are available. Use the "sites" command in the archie
  telnet interface at any of the above sites for a more complete lists.

  Access details:
                - telnet to any of the above sites
                - login as user `archie' (no password is required)
                - type `help' at the prompt to get started.

  Note:  Some people forget and use ftp in place of telnet. This will
         not work. The hint that this is being done is that they claim
         that a password is needed, not that the site can't be found.

 NIR Tool Name:  Internet Gopher

 Brief Description of Tool:

   The Internet Gopher protocol is a client/distributed-server document
   search and retrieval protocol originally developed at the University
   of Minnesota.  Gopher was originally created as a fast, simple,
   distributed, campus-wide information search and retrieval system;
   ease of use and implementation has made Gopher increasingly popular
   on the Internet.  Since its original release, many folks on the
   Internet have contributed to its growth, submitting patches, servers,
   clients, and linking their local servers into the worldwide network
   of Gopher servers.  Gateways exist to seamlessly access a variety of
   non-Gopher services such as ftp, WAIS, USENET news, Archie, Z39.50
   (1992 rev), X.500 directories, Sybase and Oracle SQL servers, etc.
   In addition, an "archie for gopherspace" called Veronica (very easy
   rodent-oriented net-wide index to computerized archives) has been
   developed at the University of Nevada.  Veronica makes it easy to
   search for items in gopherspace by title.

   The gopher protocol is often described as "fiercely simple"; it is
   connectionless (stateless), and uses TCP reliable streams.  A client
