FTP:
Remeber that those who allow anonymous-ftp are very kind. Please do
not misuse or abuse YOUR privilegde using anonymous FTP.
Think twice before fetching, esp if you are a long-distance ftp'er.
If you are going to use FTP, use the site that is the closest to you
counting NET-VICE. If you don't know what I'm talking about, please
ask someone who know (ie. your system administrator).
IF YOU HAVE FTP-ACCESS, DO *NOT* USE THE MAILSERVER. Not even if you
temporarly cannot reach the ftp-sites.
The mirroring sites are always updated.
Why YOU shold use the site closest to you NET-VICE:
- Faster access.
- Reducing the net load.
- Keeping the site.
The main archive is in Bergen, Norway, EUROPE.
alf.uib.no is mirrored thru sites around the world.
Please use the site closest to you.
The mirroing sites are ALWAYS updated.
Please do NOT use ftp to the sites during peak hours at the various
locations. Please respect this or else, if there is too much FTP'ing
going on prime time to the various places, the ftp site may have to
shut down. NON OF US WOULD WANT THAT, WOULD WE ?

EMAIL:
I have built a Tiny Little Mailserver. This mailserver will send files to
those with NO FTP-access at all.
The mailservers adress is BUBOO@ALF.UIB.NO, the same adress wich is in the
Reply-To: field.
To get a file from the mailserver put the keyword GET in the subject line.
Example:
Subject: GET vi.passwd.Z
To get files in the macro area, put macros/ before the filname.
Example:
Subject: GET macros/upcase
The Mailserver will only understand the GET command.
The Mailserver will send a Controll File for each file requested. The
controll file will give you status information about your request.
The mailserver can only handle ONE FILE PER REQUEST. If you want more than
one file, send several Emails.
DO NOT request the whole archive! If you request the whole archive I'm
going to mail your admin about it. If you want the whole archive, request
a small amounts (max 10) of files everyday.
Before fetching a file, think: "Do I realy need this file, or is it just
'nice to have it' ?"
All files will be run thru uuencode(1) before mailed, even textfiles.
If you do not get a reply withing reasonable time, please do not send
more request about the file(s). The mailserver is probaly down if this
happends. If the server is down, it will be restarted withing 24 hours.
BEWARE: If the mailserver DOES NOT UNDERSTAND the receiptent-adress,
no mail will be forwarded. The maintainer does NOT have the
time to manualy process badly formed adresses.
CONTRIBUTION:
If you have stuff about ex/vi, macros, tips and tricks, plase email it to
Ove.R.Olsen@uib.no for inclusion in the archive.
Regards,
Ove Ruben R Olsen
LPF- Archive maintainer.

of this file is 2833 lines long and 175445 bytes big. The contenst of this
tar archive is spread around as several files. I will under NO circumstances
ever implement a mail spliting in the mailserver. I have other more usefull
things to do.
