Tom Klensk from IBM Endicott <klensk@GDLVM7.IINUS1.IBM.COM> recently
posted a helpful description on the IBM-MAIN list of how an IBM employee
can find out how to register and use the Internet gateway.  What follows
is a slightly edited version of Tom's message.
  Lee Varian, Princeton University, lvarian@pucc.princeton.edu

An IBM employee can do a GET for the file INTERNET REGISTER by issuing
the following command on his/her VM system:
   TOOLS SENDTO PLKSK TOOLS IBMVM GET INTERNET REGISTER

The file is an electronic form which should be filled out according to
the instructions and submitted by his manager.  The instructions for
completion and submission of the form are contained within the form
itself.  The submission step consists of nothing more than a SENDFILE
of the form to a service machine which does the processing.  He should
get access by the next day.  Once he has access, he can send mail to
anyone on the Internet, and anyone can send mail to him.  He would use
the INOTE EXEC to send notes to Internet addresses.  INOTE is part of
the INOTE PACKAGE.  If it is not on his system already, he can refer to
the header of INTERNET FORUM on IBMVM to see how to get it.
