Name of contact person at site: Andrew Koenig, alice!ark Andrew Koenig Room 2C-570 Bell Laboratories Murray Hill NJ 07974 (201) 582-5570 Systems with whom articles are exchanged (what kind of link, who the neighbor(s) are): The major ones are allegra, research, and mhtsa. The link is a locally developed network that runs at more than 1000 characters per second, except to mhtsa, which is by 1200 baud dialup. Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that want to join usenet: I do not think we can afford to distribute messages on a wholesale basis right now, but we will consider individual requests from system administrators. We are willing to exchange uucp messages with other systems that have their own ACU, but are reluctant to poll others, simply because of the number of requests and the fact that our dialers are heavily loaded as it is. uucp login information: System name: alice Machine particulars: VAX-11/780 running virtual UNIX/32V Access: 1200 or 300 baud dialup, through Bell 212A modems. Normal mode is 1200 baud on all lines. A break will toggle between 1200 and 300. Phone number: 201-582-9800*0000*4575 A * in this context means "wait for another dial tone" You must have TOUCH-TONE (R) service to reach this machine.

(so what don't we do?) at present our acu's are down -- we have a dn board and 2 acu's; they are wired wrong, we have no dn driver, our kernel hacker (i guess that's me) refuses to get involved, we are in the process of hiring a shogun. thus, we are willing to be called, and will be willing (bourne willing) to call others as soon as the acu's are online. remote login: uucpa. password: evomr1 @@@ cat > arthur << @@@>From sdcsvax!arthur!jmcg Tue Mar 10 04:21:12 1981 To: sdcsvax^ucbvax^mark Subject: UUCPnet directory Status: R System name: ARTHUR Path: ucbvax!sdcsvax!arthur Person to contact: Jim McGinness UC San Diego Department of Chemistry B-014 La Jolla, CA 92093 (714)452-4016 uucpname: ucbvax!sdcsvax!jmcg (arthur is only up under vmunix part time, so I get my mail at sdcsvax) No. of netnews users: none Site's purpose: We are funded as a Biomedical Research Resource by NIH. Most of the work that goes on here is number crunching and computer graphics associated with protein xray crystallography and molecular dynamics. Willingness to call new systems: nil, since our schedule wouldn't permit it even if we had an autodialer. uucp login name: uucp, whatnot, (714)452-3119 Names in .SYS file: sdcsvax, sdcarl Notes: We are currently running VMUNIX only Monday noon through Wed noon. The rest of the time we run VMS. I expect that we will go to full-time VMS if we can get EUNICE [FORTRAN performance is the dominant criterion for several of our heaviest users]. When the department's VAX 750 comes up (probable name: sdkemist or sdchemist), we plan to use it as the gateway for all our network transactions, so ARTHUR will probably disappear from the network's view. @@@ cat > azure << SEE TEKLABS @@@ CAT> bmd70 << KERNEL PORTING SITES MON BUT SHOULD FILE-SYSTEM (301) (SOON POSTED: .

Both sites are connected to decvax, although currently only csin has a dialer. Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that want to join usenet. If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. We are open to having a limited number of sites poll cca for news in the middle of the night. If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection? We are connected to the Arpanet only by a (heavily used) 9600 baud line, and we don't have the capacity to do this.

If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. Re: willingness; see above; re: policy; no formal policy yet, but we would probably want to do any forwarding overnight, especially if we become a nexus for more than 4-5 sites locally(I could be overridden on this "policy" but I doubt that I will be); If they would call us that would be that much better, but as yet, we have not raised the issue; we have only had uucp-usenet-netnews working for about a month, so wanted to make sure we had it solid before expanding. If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection? No direct ARPA access, though in the not too distant future our Computer Science Dept. is supposed to become a sub-host from the NBS(Nat'l Bureau of Stds) site here in Boulder. but they are extremely un-unixed at this point, ie, a lack of "true believers" who know what they are doing; they got off to a rough start by finding some bugs in the f77 compiler, so the anti-unix forces in CS have gotten them to run VMS part-time and unix part-time; ugh!; Feldman was out here and after being shown the apparently real bugs reportedly is doing his rewrite; they already have the bell-vax dist, and have gotten also the ucb vax distribution, but at last report are awaiting the new f77 to go whole hog to unix; we'll see how it goes. If you want to publish your uucp phone number, login, and password, include that info. I hate to sound dumb, but I'm a little vague on the protocols, etc. for uucp, since we were handed a package to install by USGS, without knowing what-all was going on; if this question refers to our normal dial-in number, that's 303-492-5431, but wouldn't a would be dialer have to have a uucp account here? as for the login and password, isn't that a function of the uucp account(s) that we might have elsewhere or am i really confused? In general, I would prefer to only have one path for all the incoming news, since I can see (and have already seen a few cases) where we could wind up getting the same stuff more than once if multi-paths existed; i understand that work is underway to try to avoid this, but a small number of paths seems surest to me; ?? @@@ cat > cmcl2 << @@@>From cbosg!harpo!presby!cmcl2!salkind Fri Jan 15 14:19:00 1982 Subject: New York Universit
