This is the second message with details about locating a webster server.
I am not sure, and apologies in advance if I am wrong, but I seem to
remember that Webster is copyrighted material and one has to pay a
copyright fee for making copies of it, e.g. broadcasting or public
performance fees, or copying pats of it over the network.

Probably MIT, Berkeley and Indiana have paid the appropriate fees for
their sites, but access from other sites is a copyright violation, if
what I surmise above is true.

Not only that, but accessing somebody's else webster server without
prior permission is not good net etiquette anyhow, just like accessing
somebody's else NNTP server, unless they are explicitly made available
for network wide access, like anonymous FTP servers are.
