Ok, I found it and you are correct. For some reason, I did not look
above the divider line, which separates entries into groups of 5.
Thanks for the correction.
I infer from your comment that there is a later edition of the book

P.S. The network listed is ERNET, the Education and Research in Computer
Networks. "To access the ERNET info-server, send electronic mail to
uunet!shakti!infoserv or mcvax!shakti!infoserv and the body of the message
should include:
request:directory
topic:name[name][name]
where name is the user name at a site in India. Case is important. Replies
are returned by electronic mail."
