available on many systems. Contact someone familiar with your system for 
further specific help if you encounter problems.

     Type: <gopher cicp.biochem.vt.edu> to connect.

     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 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

          USA            ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com.

    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>

    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.

    Type: <finger ipmnews@ftp.cicp.vt.edu | more> to view the document 
    onscreen with page pauses.
