Note: 'Andy McFadden's Toolbox' currently contains the following items:
xsg: a tool for server gods that allows them to change owners of planets,
     ship states, and lots more.
gw: a tool to allow people to play netrek through an Internet firewall.
trekhopd: Similar to gw, but netrek-specific and more secure.  gw will not
	  work with the RSA blessing scheme.
pledit: a tool to manipulate player databases.
He also developed the UDP protocol for netrek.  Donations for his shrine
are being accepted even as we speak.

Comments:

scam.Berkeley.EDU: Directory is /src/games/xtrek.  In addition
to netrek source, this site also has source for Xtrek 6 (the X11
version) and Xtrek III (the X10 version).  Netrek source and
binaries are in /src/games/xtrek/netrek.  The binaries here are blessed.
There is a binary only for Decstation 3100s.  The source will work on
cyborg nights, and this is where to go to get the code you'll need for
building your own cyborg.  The source for the scam server is here.

ftp.cis.ksu.edu: Directory is /pub/Games/netrek.  There are RSA clients
for the Amiga, and UDP clients for Sun 3's and 4's and HP 700's. There
is also source for the KSU 'GalaxyTrek' server, which supports the Galaxy
class ships, and source for the Galaxy client.  The latest copy
of the FAQ and this server list should be there.  Andy McFadden's
Toolbox is here.  The bronco server distribution has recently been added.
There is a blessed UDP binary for Sun 3's, 4's and HP Apollo series 700 
workstations.  The UDP server and client code is here.  There is also a 
tar file containing a font to use as an italic font (for neutral planets 
and team members).  The official INL server code and the INL rulebook 
are here.  

pittslug.sug.org: Directory is /pub/netrek.  The binaries here will work
anywhere.  There are UDP clients for Decstation 3100s, Sun 3s and 4s, 
NeXT's, MIPS's, and AIX.  There are RSA clients for Dec 3100s, Sun 3s and 4s,
SGI's, RT's, NeXT's, HP300's and 700's, Vax Ultrix, and for the Amiga.
The source for the UDP client and the UDP server is also here.  
Andy McFadden's Toolbox is here.  XnetrekM, a Motif front end for 
METASERVER (by Tedd Hadley) is here.  The source for the RSA server, or 
for upgrading an already-running server, is here, including most 
publicly recognized keys.

gs69.sp.cs.cmu.edu: Directory is /usr/jch/netrek, but the server should
be smart enough to drop you there when you log in.  Send your whole mail
address instead of just your login name or else the server will rudely
close connection on you.  The collected wisdom of CMU xtrek players lies
here, along with the latest version of this server list, a sample .xtrekrc,
hints on how to play the different ship types, and lots of other useful
information for players.  There is also help here for people trying
to set up a server, and a list of common problems and their solutions.
There is a patch for turning the standard client code into an information
borg.  The final bronco server code is here in the /code directory.
The final bronco score database is here.  There's a ton of stuff here, 
really; check out ChangeLog for recent changes.  This archive is available 
over AFS (cd /afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/jch/netrek) and WAIS (gourd.srv.cs.cmu.edu,
port 6000, name netrek-ftp).

b62103.student.cwru.edu: Directory is /pub/games/netrek.  The binary
here is for NeXT computers, and specifically for NeXT's running
MouseX or Co-Xist (NOT NeXTstep).  The binary is now blessed and UDP,
so it can be used on any server.  The source will work on NeXT's or
any other color machine that has fewer than 8 color panes.
A NeXT port of 'sunborg' is also here.  The source for Dtrek, a
new, larger version of xtrek, is here.

ftp.iastate.edu: Directory is /pub/netrek.  There are versions of
Scout Popcorn's solarisborg for decstation 3100's, NeXT's and Suns,
a version of the Pig borg for decstation 3100's, and patches to set
up a server like tbird.cc.iastate.edu.  Pretty much anything that is
at any other FTP site can be found here, somewhere.

iacrs2.unibe.ch: Directory is /pub/aix/netrek.  There is source here that
contains the modifications necessary to get netrek to run on IBM
rs6k/AIX (the standard code, the galaxy code, and the BEEF information
borg code).  xsg code is here, also, as is the source for ck_players.
The source for the Scam server and client are here, as well as
source for the Aix server and client.  There are also sample
.xtrekrc's and the latest server and FTP lists.

sgi.com: Directory is now /sgi/src/netrek.  There is a binary and source 
for SGI Irix 4.0 or later here.  If you're not running 4.0, this will 
not work.

ocf.berkeley.edu: Directory is /pub/netrek.  There are blessed UDP binaries 
here for Sun 3's and 4's and HP Apollos.

cad.ics.uci.edu: Directory is /pub/netrek.  There is a binary here for
the UDP client (version 1.0) for sun 3's, 4's, and MIPS's.

ftp.coe.montana.edu: Directory is /pub/mirrors.  There are mirrors here
of gs69, pittslug, and ftp.iastate.edu.

ftp.informatik.uni-rostock.de: Directory is /pub/games/xtrek.  The source
for the KSU galaxy server is here, along with some sample xtrekrc's.

ftp.ulowell.edu: Directory is /pub/netrek.  The source for a VMS
client and VMS server are here, as well as an unblessed VMS client
binary.

ftp.unh.edu: Directory is /pub/submissions.  A blessed binary for
VAX Ultrix 4.2 is here, and a blessed VMS client (using UCX for the
TCP/IP interface).

duke.me.chalmers.se: Directory is /pub/netrek.  ntpatch, a utility
that allows one to change variables in shared memeory, is here.

grind.isca.uiowa.edu: Directory is /unix/netrek.  Has most everything
from the other archive sites.  This is also the main distribution
point for the Grandfather borg, there are binaries for Decstations,
NeXT's, and Suns (Sun 4's, I think).

charon.amdahl.com: Directory is /pub/netrek.  This is not a full-time
FTP site, but this is where Andy McFadden puts the new releases of
his netrek-related utilities until they show up elsewhere.  Currently
there are trekhopd 1.3 and xsg 1.22.

ftp.chemietechnik.uni-dortmund.de: Directory is /pub/games/netrek or
simpy netrek.  This is a mirror of gs69, and has also xsg, the grit
server source, the source for the Hadley client and the scam server/
client source.

tbird.cc.iastate.edu: Directory is /usr/isae.  The source for a server 
mod to record games of netrek is here.

melmac.risc.uni-linz.ac.at: Directory is /pub/netrek.  Information on the
European Netrek League is here.  The RSA package is here, unencrypted.

jupiterII.cl.msu.edu: Directory is /pub/netrek.  There are blessed
clients for Sun 3's and 4's, Sun386i's, 486's running Unix, and rs6000's
with AIX.
