I have been trying to FTP to it (at 128.174.25.50) many times over the last
several weeks, but it never responded.  Prior to that I had connected to it
successfully on numerous occasions and don't reacall any instance of it not
responding.

Also, I used to receive the NCSA Telnet news bulletin every once in a while,
not very regularly, but quite frequently.  However, I did not received a
bulletin for several months now.

We are particularly eager to get a release version of NCSA Telnet 2.3 for
the PC. The Beta I downloaded last does not work.

Does anyone know whether they have gone out of the "business" of providing
free software?  That would be a tremendous loss!  Has 2.3 for the PC ever
been released?  If so, is there an alternate host from which it can be
FTPed?
