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.

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 University on the air Newsgroups: net.news.newsite New York University has joined the USENET.

MCNC exists and is a going concern. I will publish a news item soon, but the Word is that we run 4.1 bsd on two (2) vax 780's with three dual-ported RP07's and each has a TU78. We run interleaved memory and the RP07's do NOT run 2.2 MB/sec. Anyway, MCNC (Microelectronics Center of North Carolina) is affiliated with several universities around the state to assist in VLSI design and fabrication. The universities are Duke, UNC-Chapel Hill (unc), NC State (wolfvax), UNC-Charlotte (web40), and NC A & T (soon to be ncat). We are connected via leased 9600 bps lines with stat muxes on each end, thus we run uucp for mail and news to each site and they communicate to each other through mcnc. (One of the Duke & Unc mux ports are tied together so that they have a "direct" connection.) Contact is me - James Ellis (duke!mcnc!jte). We got our autodialer today (UDS) so maybe it will work after a while, but I don't have much of a budget to call places. Decvax at least, though. I have Datec 212 dial in lines and will be pretty liberal about allowing dial-ins. The repercussions of our leased line connections are just now dying down, but I think the above discription will be pretty accurate for a while. @@@ cat > menlo70 << @@@>From menlo70!bill Sat Mar 7 12:43:02 1981 To: ucbvax!mark Subject: uucp info Status: R System name: menlo70 Path: ucbvax!menlo70 Contact:Bill Jolitz(menlo70!bill) (415)-323-8111 x2965 Number of netnews users: 183 Willingness to call newsites: Some, but our machine is very loaded.

Contact ross, valer or cag. Those names go with: Graham Ross, interested alumnus. Jim Valerio, interested student. Charlie Green, Director, Academic Cumputing, (503)-771-1112x329 Reed is a small, coed liberal arts college in Portland, OR. We have an 11/70 running V7 Unix (with modifications to the RP06 driver and with power-fail recovery capability). There are two DH11s, an RP06, 500 Kbyte of core, a TU16, an LP11, two RX01s (our users use mountable floppies for portable storage) and an optically-isolated high-speed terminal net- work going out to the science departments. We have licenses for V6, PWB V1, and V7 Unix. Our /etc/passwd has 803 lines in it, but we seldom find more than 20 people logged in at once. The user community breaks down into four groups: 1) Students and Faculty whose uses are tied directly to the college's curricula; 2) Students who use nroff to format papers and theses; 3) Students who write and/or play games; and 4) Students and alumni who maintain the system and use it as it as a playground in OS tweaking and language development. Out of 800 users, only a few subscribe to network news. Here's the demography: 12 subscribe to NET.ALL 3 subscribe only to NET.sf-lovers 1 subscribes only to NET.general 3 subscribe to NET.ALL, excluding sf-lovers and human-nets. NET.ALL isn't much, because our .sys file only allows NET.general, NET.v7vbugs, and NET.news. (So, we're defrauding some of our users -- so what?) I think we are happy with just one connection (through Duke), though it might make more sense to keep West Coast mail on the West Coast.
