- Hi Timothy,
-
- I'm relatively new to this conference and from all the useful advice I
- see you leaving for others I thought you'd be the best person to
- talk to about a few questions I have. If you can't help me I appreciate
- it if you'd steer me in the right direction.
-
- I access this conference via my local BBS here in Toronto Canada -
- Canada Remote Systems (CRS). I notice that you often advise people
- to download various files and OS2FAQ from "anonymous ftp".
-
- First of all I'm wondering what "anonymous ftp" means.
- Do I have access to this via my BBS and FIDONET? If so, how do I go
- about accessing it? If not is there a list of BBSs so that I could get
- access?
-
- Also, I don't know how familiar you are with posting messages via
- INTERNET etc but I haven't had any luck with it. I'm supposed to
- have access to INTERNET via my CRS BBS but the person I address messages
- to never receives my forwards, nor I his. Is there somewhere I could get
- some advice or instructions on how to do this - format, protocol etc?
-
- Thanks in advance for your help. I hope you receive this message as
- I'm sending it addressed "PRIVATE".
-
- Best wishes for the New Year!
-
- ...Steve
