	Thanks to a great many of good folks who replied to
	my earlier question about the IP# of wuarchive.wustl.edu.
	The number is
		128.252.135.4

	So
		ftp 128.252.135.4
	is functionaly equivalent to
		ftp wuarchive.wustl.edu
	
	Unix folks might want to try out the command 'arp' to
	get a list things like this. This is disabled at our site
	so I can't try it myself.

	The IP# works well on PCs while the .edu address works
	well on mainframe terminals.

	By the way, wuarchive.wustl.edu is a good source for
	public domain and shareware programs (and gif image files etc).
	It has a 'mirrors' directory that mirrors simtel. wuarchive is
	also by far faster than simtel. For ibm stuff, look in
		mirrors/msdos
