The archie service which has been provided by archie.CS.McGill.CA
is now available on archie.sura.net. All three methods of lookup are
supported (telnet,client,mail-request). We would strongly encourage you
to utilize the client software. If you do not have such software, it is
available on ftp.sura.net /pub/archie/clients. Email request should be
sent to archie at nic.sura.net. Due to resource constraints mail request sent
to any other address will be dropped into the bit bucket. Please mail
archie-admin at sura.net with bugs or suggestions. I would also like the
thank the creators of archie both for implementing such a worthwhile
idea and for their assistance in getting it up and running here.
