In order to make things easier for some system managers who may not have access to a Unix machine to run `uncompress' on the tar file (and who may not have DEC/Shell or VMStar), I'm going to make available on DRYCAS.CLUB.CC.CMU.EDU (in the ANONYMOUS directory) the file ANU-NEWS-V59.BZK which will be a LZCOMP'ed backup saveset of the same file. This will also include the fix for CMU TCP/IP which was in the pub/anu-news directory on csc2 as well. --Marc Shannon SYNFUL@DRYCAS.CLUB.CC.CMU.EDU
