Lines: 31 OK, I just tried hopping over to simtel to take a look at their archives. However, I am somewhat stumped as to how I can get to the directories of interest. When I'm logged in, I can list out a number of help files and directory listing files, but that's it. When I looked at simtel20-msdos.dirlist.8, I got: "Quick reference list of SIMTEL20's PD1:directories as of November 28, 1988 (where 'x' is one of the names below): ..." But I couldn't get to any of the directories! cd pd1:msdos.database pd1 cd msdos.database ...etc --all failed. I feel like I am missing something obvious, but I don't know what. I have ftp'd to many different sites, but this is a new one to me. Can someone please e-mail to me how I can get to the directories of interest on simtel??? Some of the stuff listed looked pretty interesting!!
