Unfortunately, due to a not having a T1 network link, our connection does not have the bandwidth to do the same job as 'ref' did. However, this machine can be used by anyone who does not have the resources to do projects on their own machine, or who does not have a machine to do a project on it. In addition, I have local copies of the interim release work and the NetBSD stuff (which are always a little behind due to them both being done by hand). Prerequisites for getting an account are simple: 1) telnet access so you can login - No modems are available, and you wouldn't want to pay for long distance to Montana anyway :-) 2) a specific project to accomplish/attempt 3) a mail message sent to me stating your project and an account name. The projects don't have to be overly specific, but since I can't provide access to everyone, I need projects to give to the folks who provided the resources to me a listing of the projects that are being worked on. The machine is a 486/33 with 16MB of memory and 1.5G of disk, some local and some NFS mounted. The engineering dept. of Montana State University has provided a large part of the resources this machine has, and backups are being done on a regular basis. Please send all requests for account to: nate@bsd.coe.montana.edu, which is the machine that is being provided for the network access.
