[HECnet] SOLAR:: Mirror status update

Just for the lulz, I made a captive account on CHIMPY:: called SLRFIND that uses Lynx to connect to the file search engine. It works quite well actually.

I'll keep people posted on any additions to the mirror - if someone knows of other stuff that should be up there, let me know. Also, SOLAR is running on an emulated Alpha - which at times seems to suffer from a massive drop in network performance - please let me know and I'll bounce the emulator + VM ASAP.

If you come across ISOs of original DEC CDs that I don t have posted, I d appreciate a pointer to them. Thanks!

Altogether, there's almost 300 GB of stuff from various source on SOLAR:: As it currently stands, the default FAL directory on SOLAR:: contains: Directory SOLAR::SYS$SPECIFIC:[DECNET] FREEWARE.DIR The Freeware CDs, both ISOs and extracted contents INCOMING.DIR Currently empty, feel free to add anything you feel like VAXHAVENCDS.DIR The VAXHAVEN CDs, both ISOs and extracted contents I had to add another drive to the machine to hold the DECUSLIB mirror, so we also have: Directory SOLAR::DKA100:[DECUSLIB] DECUS.DIR Extracted DECUSLIB stuff from www.decuslib.com ZIPS.DIR;1 The original ZIP files These are all mostly accessible via HTTP at http://solar.sampsa.com/files/ There is also a really rudimentary search engine at http://proliant.sampsa.com/cgi-bin/solarfind/solarfind.py sampsa
