questions about GNU and FSF and their software can be asked of
gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu
prep.ai.mit.edu is definitely there for anonymous ftp, user
`anonymous' passwd `YOUR_LOGIN_NAME'. Make sure you transfer in
binary mode. The command to use on most Unixes is `ftp'. `man ftp'
for details.
Marv:
you should have your system administrator find out why you can get to
prep.ai.mit.edu (use ping, traceroute, talking to your regional
network staff et al).
