Dear me, how can I take your sources ?
My problems are:
- language (I am Italian, and English is driving me mad!)
- USENET (I am a beginner)
- ftp (HOW CAN I ACCESS YOUR MACHINE?)

		[For ftp access, you need to be on the Internet.  Ask
		your system administrator. If you are, the ftp
		program is documented in chapter 1 of the UNIX
		manuals. If you aren't using UNIX, I can't help.

		Ftp requires that you give the other system a user
		name and password; exactly what I'm not sure. Would
		someone be kind enough to post a summary of the
		standard user names and passwords for anonymous ftp?

		Before trying to get ksh, you should read the
		following. tww]
