MacTCP is not free. It requires a license. 

I believe the kind souls who wrote the Eudora mail program
made arrangements to have a licence to redistribute MacTCP.

You can get Eudora (and consequently MacTCP) from
ux1.cso.uiuc.edu in the mac/eudora directory.

You can get a HyperCard Net News Reader stack via the Apple
Programmer's and Developer's Association as part of the 
HyperCard MacTCP Toolkit. Or on the Developer CD.

Once you have licensed MacTCP you are able to use any 
MacTCP app without further license.

I believe this info to be correct, if you know of any 
inaccuracies let me know. Now how do we get this in the 
Frequently asked questions.....
