Hi folks!

Not much change since the first version, but here's my current Internet
Resource Guide for Prime users:

13 August 1992           INTERNET RESOURCE GUIDE                Version 2
                         For Prime Computer Users

This guide documents resources available on the Internet of particular
interest to users of systems and software supplied by Prime Computer,
Inc.

The first section of this guide lists resources available via electronic
mail, and the second resources available using FTP.  Each entry includes
information about what's available and how to get it, and who to contact
in case of difficulty.

There are a number of more general Internet resource guides available.
One particularly good one was written by Jerry Martin and can be
retrieved using FTP.  Connect to host magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu with
user "anonymous", password "guest"; cd "pub/network"; and get the file
 "resource.txt".

Please send corrections or additions to this guide to
Eric@CCCC.CC.Colorado.EDU (Eric Ross, Colorado College).


                Resources Available Via Electronic Mail

Info-Prime Mailing List

Info-Prime is a public, unmoderated mailing list for discussion of all
aspects of computing on Prime supplied hardware and software. Everyone is
welcome to subscribe to this list, including users of Primos, Unix, and
Information based Prime systems; users of Computervision systems; Prime
employees; and anyone else interested in Prime.

Though this list is located at a node within .Prime.COM, that is the
ONLY relationship with Prime Computer, Inc. this list has.  NOTHING
distributed by this list is official, unless otherwise stated.

To subscribe, send electronic mail to ListServer@BLX-A.Prime.COM with
just the following command in the body:

     subscribe Info-Prime your_full_name

For example:  subscribe Info-Prime Janet Jones

You will receive a message welcoming you to the list that explains
how to submit to the list, get off the list, and get archives of prior
correspondence.

The USENET new group comp.sys.prime is gatewayed to Info-Prime.

In case of difficulty please contact the list administrator,
Toni van de Wiel, at Toni@BLX-A.Prime.COM.

There are three file servers currently offering free software and data of
interest to Prime users.  Send mail with the single line HELP in the body

offered by the server.  Comments, questions, and problems should be
reported to the administrative address listed for each server.
