- From the gopher FAQ list:
-
- Q6: How can I set up a "CSO" phone book server? Where is the software?
-
- A6: CSO phone book servers are also known as "qi" servers. The
- software implementation can be gotten via anonymous ftp from
- uxc.cso.uiuc.edu (128.174.5.50) as /pub/qi.tar.Z. You may also
- see this referred to as "ph", which is what most of the clients
- are called. A collected set of clients for Macs, PCs, VMS, VM,
- etc, are in the /pub/ph.tar.Z file.
-
- There is also an archive of the mailing list for qi/ph software on
- the same machine. It's in /pub/info-ph.archive. You may join the
- list by sending email to info-ph-request@uxc.cso.uiuc.edu.
-
- This software is supported by Paul Pomes <p-pomes@uiuc.edu>
- Contact him for more information.
