There are seperate versions for <the two versions of TCP. If you can get a DECnet based system to act as a news <server, you could get the DECnet NNTP object from ANUnews and use it and not <need any TCP/IP package on the VAX. < < R. Kevin Oberman < Just wanted to let everyone know that anonymous ftp on krypton.arc.nasa.gov may not be available after the end of February 1990. If anyone is interested in getting a version of VNEWS after that time you can send mail to me at: howells@earth.arc.nasa.gov also, if anyone would care to take VNEWS on in another anon ftp host, please feel free to do so. -- John Howells howells@earth.arc.nasa.gov <-- new address howells@pioneer.arc.nasa.gov
