I get that error with archie when I can't get to the host  archie server. Make sure your computer
has internet capability. Try 'ping' on an outside machine to see if you are connected. Also you 
can try another one of the archie servers. Try one of these:

archie.ans.net  (USA [NY])
archie.rutgers.edu (USA [NJ])
archie.sura.net (USA [MD])
archie.mcgill.ca (Canada)
archie.funet.fi (Finland/Mainland Europe)
archie.au (Australia)
archie.doc.ic.ac.uk (Great Britian/ Ireland)

     Good Luck.   The archie service is cool. 

    Does anyone have a macintosh interface for archie, like xarchie? Just wondering.
