: So, when Dmytri says that the not.torfree.net connection is different 
: than the TFN connection, he is only partially right. What he knows so 
: well is that the TFN connection and the Ryerson connection (plus the 
: school net connection) are all linked together and are actually using one 
: T1 connection freely provided by Rogers as a community service.

Nabil, The not server isn't connected to TFN main servers AT ALL.. 
Ryerson has it's own inet connectino, try ping the not server and you'll 
find out who it is!!


: According to Colin McGregor in a conversation with David Jones - who
: participates through conference telephony - in one board meeting late 1997
: that I have attended, Rogers is actually asking for an explanation of the
: high wavelength use by the not.torfree.net.  Guess who is preparing the
: answer? ;-) This fact was also confirmed by Jordan in the last AGM. But do
: you believe they would shut down the office web server? No. They will
: continue to USE (add an ab if you like) the TFN till they bring it down. 

The not server is also used for testing reason's too Nabil.. 

: So my friends, I shall be there always. May be not as frequently as I 
: used to, now that I have a full time job that is highly demanding on my 
: time and energies. Those jobless people will have as many posts as they 
: want, but whether it is convincing to the ordinary TFN user or not, is 
: something else.

The Not server is out of the question, as Bruce Becker has stated to me a 
number of times, it NEEDS revamping, and I noticed that when I was 
looking around ... There's no reason that the not server should be used 
period except for what it's doing now.. some resources on not could be 
used, but not at this time Nabil... there are 2 other Servers in the 
office which could be used for the crap your talking about.. but before 
any servers in the office can be used, a firewall server must be inplace 
in the office FIRST!!!
