One system is a news and mail microcomputer conferencing system (site name 'tucc'). This new system ('ecs') offloads the staff so that more ports are available for public usage on the 'tucc' site. All news on 'tucc' is available on 'ecs'. A dedicated uucp line connects the 2 sites, so the conference is now on 2 connected machines. 'ecs' contacts 'tucc' at least twice an hour. Name of contact person at site: David Hinnant Electronic mail address of contact person: ucbvax!decvax!duke!tucc!ecs!dfh U.S. Mail address of contact person: David Hinnant North Carolina Educational Computing Service P.O. Box 12035 Research Triangle Park, NC 27709 Phone number of contact person: (919) 549-0671 Systems with whom news articles are exchanged: We get all our news from 'tucc', which receives network news from 'unc'. (what kind of link, who the neighbor(s) are): 'ecs' will talk only to 'tucc', but 'tucc' communicates with the outside world via 'duke', 'unc', and 'mcnc'. Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that want to join usenet. If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. No willingness, no policy. If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection? If you want to publish your uucp phone number, login, and password, include that info.
