I am sorry to let you all know that the FTP site is down, at least
temporarily, possibly permanently.  The university had a problem with
a student hacking the password file on the campuswide password server.
(I thought their 'new system' was stupid, but didn't know why.  They
didn't even encrypt the passwords in the file. STUPID!!!)

The anonymous ftp is currently down as I said and we also lost our
anonymous gopher.  I will let everybody know if this changes.

For now, the fileserver is running and if there is anything that you
all would like to see on it, let me know.

     The service we render to others is really the rent we pay for our
