Or if you wish you can get a listing of the available files, by giving
the remote filename as:
princeton.edu:(D)/pub/harnad
Because of traffic delays through the FT-RELAY, still another method
can sometimes be recommended, which is to use the Princeton bitftp
fileserver described below. Typically, one sends a mail message of
the form:
FTP princeton.edu UUENCODE
USER anonymous
LS /pub/harnad
GET /pub/harnad/bbs.fischer
QUIT
(the line beginning LS is required only if you need a listing of
available files) to email address BITFTP at EARN.PUCC or to
BITFTP at EDU.PRINCETON, and receives the requested file in the form of
one or more email messages.
[Thanks to Brian Josephson (BDJ10 at UK.AC.CAM.PHX) for the above
detailed UK/JANET instructions; similar special instructions for file
retrieval from other networks or countries would be appreciated and
will be included in updates of these instructions.]
---
Where the above procedures are not available (e.g. from Bitnet or other
networks), there are two fileservers:
ftpmail at decwrl.dec.com
and
bitftp at pucc.bitnet
that will do the transfer for you. To one or the
other of them, send the following one line message:
help
for instructions (which will be similar to the above, but will be in
the form of a series of lines in an email message that ftpmail or
bitftp will then execute for you).
