The following files are available from NETSERV@BITNIC which can be of
use to Bitnet Administrators and Postmasters:

Filename        Filetype        Description
--------        --------        -----------
BITNET          NODELST         List of all Bitnet nodes and what/where
                                they are
nodename        NODENTRY        Info, contacts at node 'nodename'
BITNET          GATES           Human-readable list of gateways to
                                other domains
DOMAIN          NAMES [*]       Machine-readable list of gateways to
                                other domains

[*] you must be listed as a contact/administrator/postmaster in your
    node's 'nodentry' to access this file.

The access commands are as follows:

1) From Unix (running UREP):
        echo GET filename filetype | netwrite netserv@bitnic
2) From VM:
        TELL NETSERV at BITNIC GET filename filetype
3) From VMS:
        SEND NETSERV@BITNIC GET filename filetype
4) From MVS:
        TRANSMIT NETSERV.BITNIC NOPROLOG
        and enter the 'GET filename filetype' commands as a
        single line of message text and hit PF3 to transmit.
