For those of you using or planning on using uunet.uu.net, please use

	ns.uu.net	192.48.96.3

ns is a 3 cpu Pyramid MIServer that is currently doing NOTHING but
acting as an ftp server for X11R4.

uunet will continue to carry the X distribution, but right now it's
getting the living hell beat out of it, so it's to everyone's advantage
to use the faster, less loaded machine (ns.uu.net).

ns and uunet are on the same Ethernet which is connected to
SURANET via T-1 (currently sustaining over 700 kbps since 5pm!)
so there is no advantage to using uunet over ns and a big speed
difference from using the unloaded ns.

Thanks.
