Subject: What to do about busy lines to Europe

9. *****
 Q: The lines to Europe are not always available. Does any site in
the U.S. have your collection.

 A: Nevertheless, always get my files directly from the Garbo main
site only. I do not actively upload my packages anywhere else!
Furthermore, there is no guarantees that even the Garbo mirror sites
are up to date. Simtel.Net used to have practically all my programs,
often almost as soon as they come out. But this is no longer the
case since Keith Petersen left Simtel.

 A2: Try using automated ftp. It is very convenient on Unix. See
ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/unix/ts/0newsu93.txt and
ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/unix/netwroking/ftp/batchftp.txt for more
information on batchftp. Warmly recommended if you have a Unix or a
Linux system.
