I. INTEREST GROUPS
A. BITNET LISTSERVs
BITNET conferencing is usually of the "one-to-many" form. Some
interaction of a "public" nature takes place on these lists, but,
generally, posting to BITNET lists enables one to participate in a
distributed discourse, as well as utilize the collective expertise of
the participant subscribers. Often it is suggested that follow-up
postings take place on a one-to-one basis by e-mail exchange or,
sometimes, if the information is broadly relevant to the list
and of interest to the participant pool, results are summarized
for the benefit of the conference. One should never be hesitant to
post information or make queries relevant to an interest group. The
lists are there to be used and should be, regardless of the tone of
the collective discourse at any given time, or a pre-conceived caste
system or cell bias favored by any individual or small group within
the larger conference. It is important to participate.
One of the most common fileserver and e-mail list programs currently
in use on the Internet is LISTSERV written by Eric Thomas. Listserv is
the umbrella software which runs the conferences on many Internet
computers. This section describes BITNET conferencing with LISTSERV
although there are other listserv softwares, like MAILBASE which is
used in the UK and Europe.
Subscribing to, joining or being added to conferences or "lists"
is most often accomplished automatically by sending an e-mail message
containing a subscription command to the listserv software on the server
which runs the conference you wish to join. A general rule of thumb is:
ALWAYS send the subscription command to the LISTSERV *not* to the
list itself, since it is the listserv software which will add your
virtual address to the list distribution, otherwise your subscription
request will be posted to everyone on the list, which is an annoying
distraction to those who are already on the list.
For instance, to subscribe to the ARTCRIT discussion list the
proceedure and syntax would be as follows:
E-mail message to [email protected]
(not [email protected])
No subject line is neccessary.
The text of the message would be:
SUBSCRIBE ARTCRIT <your first name> <your lastname>
Once you have subscribed to a given conference or list, and want
to participate in the discussion or post information to the list,
THEN the proper address to use is the address of the list itself
i.e. to post a message to list ARTCRIT, your message would be
addressed to [email protected].
There are also options for your distribution, these will be
described in the message the listserv will answer with when you
SUBscribe. For example, if you are going to be away on vacation,
you can use one of the SET commands as follows:
send an e-mail message to listserv@xxxxxxxxxxxx with the command
SET <TheNameOfTheListYouJoined> NOMAIL
Once your distribution has been updated, the list will stop sending
mail, so that you're not overwhelmed with an unmanageable mailbox
when you return from your vacation or meeting.
Another example: if you wish people not to be able to retrieve
your name and e-mail address by polling the listserv with the
REVIEW command, you can SET your distribution to CONCEAL.
To leave a list, send the command SIGNOFF to the listserv-
[email protected] (again NOT to the [email protected]).
Always read the documentation the server sends back, however tedious,
since some listservers operate a little differently (though many of
them are similar).
Note that some conferencing lists don't have automatic subscription
which means that a real human being is adding you to the list on the
other end. You will have to contact the managers/moderators directly
via e-mail to request to be added. In this case, most often the
address will be "<nameoflist>-request@addressofthe list".
The addresses given for these conferences are first the bitnet address,
then the Internet address.

III. FTP and TELNET
File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Telnet and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol) are the three most common protocols offered on any given
client-server computer system connected to the T-1 TCP/IP Internet.
FTP and Telnet refer to the protocols as well as to the software
called on when they are invoked.In non-computerese, FTP allows you to
transfer files to and from your computer to a remote computer; Telnet
establishes a temporary connection between your computer and a remote
computer which enables you to remotely login, share time and utilize
the services offered on the remote system. A simple analogy is that
Telnet is to the Internet as dial-in is to a direct-dial BBS, FTP's
"put" and "get" commands are to the Internet as uploading and down-
loading are to a direct-dial BBS. The difference is the connection- on
the Internet the "connection" is made by TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol), whereas dial-in to a BBS the connection
is made over serial phone lines/ coaxial cable.
For both FTP and Telnet you can use the machine's IP address, or, as
an alternative to it, the IP number of the machine (note: if the
machine is up and running and connected,the IP _number_ will always
work).
A. Anonymous FTP
Here is an example if an anonymous FTP session on the funet.fi
(Finland) site. The commands are shown in upper case after the ftp
prompts (ftp>) with explanation after the asterisk following.
FTP FUNET.FI
* invokes the ftp software to connect to the remote site funet.fi
Connected to funet.fi.
220 etana FTP server (SunOS 4.1) ready.
Name (funet.fi:raltemus): ANONYMOUS
*identifies you to the remote system as a guest
331 Guest login ok, send ident as password.
Password: [email protected]
*this won't be displayed when you type it. Some systems also allow
you to use "guest" as a password
230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
ftp> DIR
*this command tells the system to display the contents of the current
or "root" file directory- its contents could be more directories,
files or programs, or a combination.
200 PORT command successful.

B. Telnet
Here is an example if a Telnet remote login session on the NYX
(University of Denver, UNIX) host. Again, the commands are shown in
upper case after the login and menu prompts and explanations follow
the asterisks.
TELNET 130.253.192.68
* invokes the Telnet software to connect to the remote system
Trying 130.253.192.68...
Connected to 130.253.192.68.
SunOS UNIX (nyx)
login: GUEST
* the system prompts you to enter "guest" which operates as a password
for remote login. "visitor" is used also sometimes.
Welcome to Nyx -- The Spirit of the Night
Sponsored by the Faculty, Students, and Friends of the
University of Denver
Department of Math and Computer Science
The main purpose of Nyx is to enhance the enjoyment of computing
by providing the community with public access to a multi-user system.
Nyx is run on a donated Sun Sparcserver II running the Unix operating
system and maintained by volunteer effort..........

j Join (that is, fill out application for personal or anonymous
login)
s Look to see if you already have an account from before
m Send mail to system admin to report a problem
x Exit without joining
Choice: i
* once connected to the remote host, navigating the system is usually
a matter of reading from menu choices to see what is offered, then
typing in the appropriate character or combination of characters.
In this case choosing "i" from the menu takes you to another menu.

x Exit information menu
Choice: B
* choosing "b" from the menu you to the introductory information file,
which looks like this:
NYX, The Spirit of the Night
Introductory Information (as of 9/29/92)
What is Nyx?
For a more complete answer, see the "philosophy of Nyx" item in the
'info' menu; but, briefly, Nyx is a public access Unix system that
brings you as much access to the resources of Unix and the world-wide
network ("The Internet") as we can allow. It is a public computing
equivalent to public TV. Nyx is not an ordinary "BBS" in so far as
it is one of the few that is primarily Internet based.... (etc. the
intro file continues for four more screens, then returns to the New
User Information Menu).

Telnet is also used to connect to remote library catalogs on the
Internet and, once the connection is made, the proceedure is similar
to using your local Online Public Access Catalog ( see Section V.).

IV. Archie
Archie is a directory service for the Internet which tracks the
contents of over 800 archive sites on the Internet. Archie is the
networked index to Internet information. It is most useful when
you want to do a known-item search for a file or program you want
to find and transfer. In other words, if you know the name of the
file or progam you are looking for, but do not know on which computer
(or computers) it is located, archie is the appropriate search tool.
Archie searches all known ftp sites for any file or program you
want. To use an archie server,Telnet to the nearest archie site
and login as "archie". To conduct your search, use the search
command "prog" followed by the name of the file you're looking for.
For information about a specific program: "whatis <nameoftheprogram>"
Here's an example of an archie session- a search for the ASCII
version of "Zen and the Art of The Internet" or filename "zen10.txt".
Commands are shown again in upper case after the archie prompt
(archie>):

V. Guides to Online Library Union Catalogs
Rather than recommending specific library catalogs, these five
retrievable files and book represent the best guides to Internet-
accessible online library union catalogs. Library OPACs are most often
accessible via the Telnet protocol by "telnetting" to the catalog's
network address. Login and quitting proceedures and search front-ends
vary greatly. Sometimes it makes sense to dial in directly if the
catalog has a local access number.

I. INTEREST GROUPS
A. BITNET LISTSERVs
BITNET conferencing is usually of the "one-to-many" form. Some
interaction of a "public" nature takes place on these lists, but,
generally, posting to BITNET lists enables one to participate in a
distributed discourse, as well as utilize the collective expertise of
the participant subscribers. Often it is suggested that follow-up
postings take place on a one-to-one basis by e-mail exchange or,
sometimes, if the information is broadly relevant to the list
and of interest to the participant pool, results are summarized
for the benefit of the conference. One should never be hesitant to
post information or make queries relevant to an interest group. The
lists are there to be used and should be, regardless of the tone of
the collective discourse at any given time, or a pre-conceived caste
system or cell bias favored by any individual or small group within
the larger conference. It is important to participate.
One of the most common fileserver and e-mail list programs currently
in use on the Internet is LISTSERV written by Eric Thomas. Listserv is
the umbrella software which runs the conferences on many Internet
computers. This section describes BITNET conferencing with LISTSERV
although there are other listserv softwares, like MAILBASE which is
used in the UK and Europe.
Subscribing to, joining or being added to conferences or "lists"
is most often accomplished automatically by sending an e-mail message
containing a subscription command to the listserv software on the server
which runs the conference you wish to join. A general rule of thumb is:
ALWAYS send the subscription command to the LISTSERV *not* to the
list itself, since it is the listserv software which will add your
virtual address to the list distribution, otherwise your subscription
request will be posted to everyone on the list, which is an annoying
distraction to those who are already on the list.
For instance, to subscribe to the ARTCRIT discussion list the
proceedure and syntax would be as follows:
E-mail message to [email protected]
(not [email protected])
No subject line is neccessary.
The text of the message would be:
SUBSCRIBE ARTCRIT <your first name> <your lastname>
Once you have subscribed to a given conference or list, and want
to participate in the discussion or post information to the list,
THEN the proper address to use is the address of the list itself
i.e. to post a message to list ARTCRIT, your message would be
addressed to [email protected].
There are also options for your distribution, these will be
described in the message the listserv will answer with when you
SUBscribe. For example, if you are going to be away on vacation,
you can use one of the SET commands as follows:
send an e-mail message to listserv@xxxxxxxxxxxx with the command
SET <TheNameOfTheListYouJoined> NOMAIL
Once your distribution has been updated, the list will stop sending
mail, so that you're not overwhelmed with an unmanageable mailbox
when you return from your vacation or meeting.
Another example: if you wish people not to be able to retrieve
your name and e-mail address by polling the listserv with the
REVIEW command, you can SET your distribution to CONCEAL.
To leave a list, send the command SIGNOFF to the listserv-
[email protected] (again NOT to the [email protected]).
Always read the documentation the server sends back, however tedious,
since some listservers operate a little differently (though many of
them are similar).
Note that some conferencing lists don't have automatic subscription
which means that a real human being is adding you to the list on the
other end. You will have to contact the managers/moderators directly
via e-mail to request to be added. In this case, most often the
address will be "<nameoflist>-request@addressofthe list".
The addresses given for these conferences are first the bitnet address,
then the Internet address.

III. FTP and TELNET
File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Telnet and SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol) are the three most common protocols offered on any given
client-server computer system connected to the T-1 TCP/IP Internet.
FTP and Telnet refer to the protocols as well as to the software
called on when they are invoked.In non-computerese, FTP allows you to
transfer files to and from your computer to a remote computer; Telnet
establishes a temporary connection between your computer and a remote
computer which enables you to remotely login, share time and utilize
the services offered on the remote system. A simple analogy is that
Telnet is to the Internet as dial-in is to a direct-dial BBS, FTP's
"put" and "get" commands are to the Internet as uploading and down-
loading are to a direct-dial BBS. The difference is the connection- on
the Internet the "connection" is made by TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol), whereas dial-in to a BBS the connection
is made over serial phone lines/ coaxial cable.
For both FTP and Telnet you can use the machine's IP address, or, as
an alternative to it, the IP number of the machine (note: if the
machine is up and running and connected,the IP _number_ will always
work).
A. Anonymous FTP
Here is an example if an anonymous FTP session on the funet.fi
(Finland) site. The commands are shown in upper case after the ftp
prompts (ftp>) with explanation after the asterisk following.
FTP FUNET.FI
* invokes the ftp software to connect to the remote site funet.fi
Connected to funet.fi.
220 etana FTP server (SunOS 4.1) ready.
Name (funet.fi:raltemus): ANONYMOUS
*identifies you to the remote system as a guest
331 Guest login ok, send ident as password.
Password: [email protected]
*this won't be displayed when you type it. Some systems also allow
you to use "guest" as a password
230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
ftp> DIR
*this command tells the system to display the contents of the current
or "root" file directory- its contents could be more directories,
files or programs, or a combination.
200 PORT command successful.

B. Telnet
Here is an example if a Telnet remote login session on the NYX
(University of Denver, UNIX) host. Again, the commands are shown in
upper case after the login and menu prompts and explanations follow
the asterisks.
TELNET 130.253.192.68
* invokes the Telnet software to connect to the remote system
Trying 130.253.192.68...
Connected to 130.253.192.68.
SunOS UNIX (nyx)
login: GUEST
* the system prompts you to enter "guest" which operates as a password
for remote login. "visitor" is used also sometimes.
Welcome to Nyx -- The Spirit of the Night
Sponsored by the Faculty, Students, and Friends of the
University of Denver
Department of Math and Computer Science
The main purpose of Nyx is to enhance the enjoyment of computing
by providing the community with public access to a multi-user system.
Nyx is run on a donated Sun Sparcserver II running the Unix operating
system and maintained by volunteer effort..........
New User Menu
=============
i Information about system, policies, hacking, etc. -- PLEASE READ
j Join (that is, fill out application for personal or anonymous
login)
s Look to see if you already have an account from before
m Send mail to system admin to report a problem
x Exit without joining
Choice: i
* once connected to the remote host, navigating the system is usually
a matter of reading from menu choices to see what is offered, then
typing in the appropriate character or combination of characters.
In this case choosing "i" from the menu takes you to another menu.

x Exit information menu
Choice: B
* choosing "b" from the menu you to the introductory information file,
which looks like this:
NYX, The Spirit of the Night
Introductory Information (as of 9/29/92)
What is Nyx?
For a more complete answer, see the "philosophy of Nyx" item in the
'info' menu; but, briefly, Nyx is a public access Unix system that
brings you as much access to the resources of Unix and the world-wide
network ("The Internet") as we can allow. It is a public computing
equivalent to public TV. Nyx is not an ordinary "BBS" in so far as
it is one of the few that is primarily Internet based.... (etc. the
intro file continues for four more screens, then returns to the New
User Information Menu).

Telnet is also used to connect to remote library catalogs on the
Internet and, once the connection is made, the proceedure is similar
to using your local Online Public Access Catalog ( see Section V.).

IV. Archie
Archie is a directory service for the Internet which tracks the
contents of over 800 archive sites on the Internet. Archie is the
networked index to Internet information. It is most useful when
you want to do a known-item search for a file or program you want
to find and transfer. In other words, if you know the name of the
file or progam you are looking for, but do not know on which computer
(or computers) it is located, archie is the appropriate search tool.
Archie searches all known ftp sites for any file or program you
want. To use an archie server,Telnet to the nearest archie site
and login as "archie". To conduct your search, use the search
command "prog" followed by the name of the file you're looking for.
For information about a specific program: "whatis <nameoftheprogram>"
Here's an example of an archie session- a search for the ASCII
version of "Zen and the Art of The Internet" or filename "zen10.txt".
Commands are shown again in upper case after the archie prompt
(archie>):

V. Guides to Online Library Union Catalogs
Rather than recommending specific library catalogs, these five
retrievable files and book represent the best guides to Internet-
accessible online library union catalogs. Library OPACs are most often
accessible via the Telnet protocol by "telnetting" to the catalog's
network address. Login and quitting proceedures and search front-ends
vary greatly. Sometimes it makes sense to dial in directly if the
catalog has a local access number.
