==Phrack Inc.== Volume Three, Issue 30, File #2 of 12 Network Miscellany III ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ By Taran King With Extra Special Thanks To Dark OverLord December 24, 1989 CARL ~~~~ The Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries, or CARL, is an on-line service providing information from its member libraries as well as select information databases. The member libraries include Auraria, CU Health Sciences Center, CU Law Library, Denver Public Library, Denver University, Denver University Law School, Colorado School of Mines, University of Northern Colorado, University of Wyoming, Government Publications, plus about five community colleges, Regis College, Colorado State Publications, State Department of Education, Pikes Peak Library, MARMOT Library System, and Boulder Public Library. The information databases include the following: UnConver -- Article Access, "Facts," Encyclopedia, Metro Denver Facts, Info Colorado, Boston Library Consortium, Library News, and New Journal Issues. CARL is available via Telnet at PAC.CARL.ORG (192.54.81.128) and is pretty clear to understand. The Encyclopedia information database, unfortunately, requires a valid username on the system. COMPUSERVE ACCESS VIA INTERNET ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can access CompuServe via Telnet through the gateway/concentrator at CTS.MERIT.EDU (35.1.1.6) by typing "CompuServe" at the "Which Host?" prompt. CTS.MERIT.EDU (35.1.1.6) is a Cisco terminal server installed primarily for users of the Merit computer network in Michigan. This machine has a bunch of serial lines going in each direction to/from a Merit Secondary Communications Processor (SCP), which is the entity that gives you the "Which Host?" prompt. Some other of the Merit services (like outbound Telnet from "Which Host?") have been intentionally limited so that they only work within Merit. Part of this is apparently for reasons of accountability and security (no random hackers dialing in and hacking machines in New Zealand) and part is for access control (ports are scarce and services have costs so they try to limit who uses the thing to paying customers). CompuServe bills connections via this link as if it were via Telenet (which is EXPENSIVE!). It's an X.25 connection somewhere at a decently fast speed. If you have particular questions about all of the various services that can be accessed through Merit, either through the terminal server at CTS.MERIT.EDU (35.1.1.6), Telneting directly into a Merit SCP or PCP, or via dial-up access, contact merit_computer_network@UM.CC.UMICH.EDU or INFO@MERIT on Bitnet. For more details about what can be accessed via CTS.MERIT.EDU, stay tuned to Network Miscellany for part IV in an upcoming issue of Phrack! DATE AND TIME ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here's an interesting little trick. Just in case you are on some system without the ability to report what time it is by a command, connect via Telnet to port 13 of an Internet Unix system. This gives you the time and date and then disconnects. Some example systems of this include RUTGERS.EDU, MICA.BERKELEY.EDU, UCBVAX.BERKELEY.EDU, and PIKES.COLORADO.EDU (example: Telnet RUTGERS.EDU 13). FTP ~~~ File Transfer Protocol or FTP is a way to transfer data or text files over the Internet from remote sites. The only problem is figuring out where something is that you want to get. The following is a list of sites accepting anonymous FTP user=anonymous, password=login. It was compiled by Jon Granrose with the help of a number of contributors as well as a couple of lists that had been started. If you have any comments, additions, or corrections, mail them to odin@UCSCB.UCSC.EDU or odin@ucscb.UUCP or 74036.3241@COMPUSERVE.COM. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- System name IP Address Comments ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a.cs.uiuc.edu 128.174.5.20 TeX, dvi2ps, gif, texx2.7, amiga accuvax.nwu.edu 129.105.49.1 PibTerm 4.1.3 ahwahnee.stanford.edu 36.56.0.208 pcip interface specs ai.toronto.edu 128.100.1.65 SunOS4.0 SLIP beta, R3 xwebster fixes albanycs.albany.edu 128.204.1.4 Best of comp.graphics allspice.lcs.mit.edu 18.26.0.115 RFC1056 (PCMAIL) stuff, MIT snmp ames.arc.nasa.gov 128.102.18.3 pcrrn, gnu grep arisia.xerox.com 13.1.100.206 lisp, tcp/ip, IDA sendmail kit arizona.edu 128.196.6.1 Icon, SR, SBProlog languages arthur.cs.purdue.edu 128.10.2.1 RCS, Purdue tech reports athena-dist.mit.edu 18.71.0.38 Hesiod name server, Kerberos, moira bitsy.mit.edu 18.72.0.3 MIT worm paper brownvm.brown.edu 128.148.128.40 MAC bu-cs.bu.edu 128.197.2.1 Telecom bu-it.bu.edu 128.197.2.40 Lots of interesting things. bugs.nosc.mil 128.49.0.1 Minix c.isi.edu 26.3.0.103 info-ibmpc (Tenex) cadre.dsl.pittsburgh.edu 128.147.128.1 jove for the Mac camelot.berkeley.edu 128.32.149.18 "pmake", yet another parallel make cayuga.cs.rochester.edu 192.5.53.209 Xfig, LaTeX style, Jove, NL-KR mail list celray.cs.yale.edu 128.36.0.25 ispell, dictionary charon.mit.edu 18.80.0.13 perl+patches, xdvi cheddar.cs.wisc.edu 128.105.2.113 Common Lisp stuff, X11 courier fonts cheops.cis.ohio-state.edu 128.146.8.62 comp.sources.*, alt.sources citi.umich.edu 35.1.128.16 pathalias, (not CITI MacIP), webster clutx.clarkson.edu 128.153.4.3 Turbo C stuff, net kit cmx.npac.syr.edu 128.230.7.8 Lots of stuff cod.nosc.mil 128.49.16.5 birdlist, PCstuff columbia.edu 10.3.0.89 NEST network simulation testbed crocus.waterloo.edu 129.97.128.6 STEVIE (vi-clone) in /u/grwalter/ftp cs.cmu.edu 128.2.222.173 screen, msdos interrupt list, zoo (in /afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/ralf/pub) cs.orst.edu 128.193.32.1 Xlisp cs.rochester.edu 192.5.53.209 See cayuga.cs.rochester.edu cs.utah.edu 128.110.4.21 A Tour of the Worm, amiga forth csc.ti.com 128.247.159.141 Preliminary clx document cunixc.cc.columbia.edu 128.59.40.130 MM mailer, Kermit, CAP/KIP cygnusx1.cs.utk.edu 128.169.201.12 GCC, MM, Scheme dartvax.dartmouth.edu 129.170.16.4 ??

It is available via Telnet by connecting to MELVYL.UCOP.EDU (31.1.0.1). It basically provides information searching capabilities and provides literary sources where the "keyword" that you used may be found. It is relatively self-explanatory. NAMESERVERS ~~~~~~~~~~~ By connecting to port 101 on certain Internet systems, you have connected to the nameserver of that domain. To get a list of all of the subdomains of the main domain, type ALL. A sample system is VIOLET.BERKELEY.EDU but be forewarned that the output from typing ALL is *EXTREMELY* long on this particular system! (Example: Telnet VIOLET.BERKELEY.EDU 101). PUBLIC ACCESS UNIX INFORMATION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For those of you that are still interested in more information on the Public Access Unix systems that were listed in Network Miscellany II featured in Phrack 29, here are a few more details. For specific information concerning the nodes discussed, refer to the previous article. For those of you who are not local to a Public Access Unix system, Portal can be reached via PC-Pursuit for $25 a month and a $10 access fee for "portal" (off-peak). For information, contact John Little (jel@CUP.PORTAL.COM). The Big Electric Cat (dasys1.UUCP) claims to be cheaper than most well- connected public sites. They have special billing for "organizational" accounts if you're interested and their standard rate is $5 a month for an account (no time restrictions). The Big Electric Cat offers a superset of the USENET newsgroups as well as unrestricted mail (!), a simplified set of prompts for most system functions, games, and several other features The World (WORLD.STD.COM) in Brookline, MA (Boston) is a Sun4/280 running Sun/OS 4.0.3 (Unix.) They offer electronic mail (to most anyplace), USENET, ClariNet and general Unix access. They dial UUNET and other sites frequently. To create an account you just dial (617)739-WRLD (9753) and login as user "new" (the login prompt gives instructions). They ask for some info (name, address, etc.) and a MasterCard or Visa account. Rates for The World ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All times are East Coast, USA. INITIAL SIGN-UP $25.00 fee, applied to first month's charges. BASIC ACCESS RATES 8AM-6PM $8.00/hour (Monday thru Friday) 6PM-12M $5.00/hour 12M-8AM $2.50/hour Weekends and holidays, 8AM-12M, $5/hour. Disk Quota ~~~~~~~~~~ A "byte" is equivalent to one character of storage. A disk block is 1024 bytes. First 512 disk blocks No Charge Additional Quota $0.01/block/month (approx. $10/MB/month) Note that disk charges are based on your requested disk quota (system imposed limit on your usage) and not your actual usage. Disk quota charges are pro-rated. Electronic Mail ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No charge for electronic mail between users of The World. No charge for first 512 blocks of mail per month. $0.01 per block of mail thereafter in any given month (approx. $10/MB/month). CPU Usage ~~~~~~~~~ In general, they do not charge for these resources for typical accounts interested in electronic communications. Customers who wish to use their system for compute or memory intensive applications should contact their office for rates. USENET ~~~~~~ Local usage, no charge. Network usage, no charge at this time. Printing And Fax ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To be announced. Upload or Download Software ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No additional charge. UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY NETWORK INFORMATION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a service which I, personally, have found to be extremely useful. If you need network information on virtually any system, connect to the University of California at Berkeley Network Information at JADE.BERKELEY.EDU Port 117 (example: Telnet JADE.BERKELEY.EDU 117). Once you are logged into the system automatically, it prompts you for a command or type "?" for a list of commands. The help menu is relatively easy to understand. You can get Bitnet network table listings or Internet numerical addresses or Internet mail exchanger listings or UUCP node information or UUCP node paths plus more. It's very useful in case you're having difficulty sending mail to a particular node from your own node or if you're trying to connect to a system via FTP or Telnet that your system doesn't recognize (i.e. get the numerical address from the server and FTP or Telnet to the numerical address). _______________________________________________________________________________
