ACCESS INFORMATION - IPMnet Connectivity Options On Internet
............................................................
IPMnet offers several ways to connect to its information resources.
The following is a list of access options through Internet. Telnet, ftp,
and gopher are standards; the others are convenient, but are not as readily
available on many systems. Contact someone familiar with your system for
further specific help if you encounter problems.
1.) Gopher
~~~~~~~~~~
Type: <gopher cicp.biochem.vt.edu> to connect.
2.) Telnet
~~~~~~~~~~
Type: <telnet cicp.biochem.vt.edu>, and,
at the prompt "cicp login:" type: <gopher>
3.) Anonymous ftp
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Type: ........................................ <ftp ftp.cicp.vt.edu>
For "name," type: ............................ <anonymous>
For "password," type: ........................ (your e-mail address)
To change to the news directory, type: ....... <cd pub/cicp/news>
To transfer the IPMnet NEWS to your host, type: <get ipmnews>
To exit, type: ............................... <bye> or <quit>
4.) ftpmail (via email)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To receive the latest issue of IPMnet NEWS, address your e-mail to
an ftpmail server, such as:
Australia ftpmail@cs.uow.edu.au
France ftpmail@grasp.insa-lyon.fr
Germany ftpmail@ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
Great Britain ftpmail@doc.ic.ac.uk

The BODY of the message should consist of only ftp commands.
Type (without the <>s and on 4 lines as shown):
<connect ftp.cicp.vt.edu>
<chdir pub/cicp/news>
<get ipmnews>
<quit>
To get earlier IPMnet NEWS issues, type the third line in the form of:
"get news(mon).(year)" (spacing as indicated)
For example, to retrieve the September 1994 issue:
Type: <get newssep.94>
Some ftpmail servers are very busy; allow up to 24 hours for delivery.
You will receive the IPMnet NEWS as though it were regular e-mail.
5.) Finger (not available on many systems)

onscreen with page pauses.
Note: The Resistant Pest Management Newsletter, published periodically, is
