Corrections, compliments, and other information should be mailed to me (mkant@cs.cmu.edu). I'll post addendum every once in a while. This list now contains a version date at the top of the file. Disclaimer: Most universities have restrictions on the uses of directory information. So don't use this info for commercial purposes or whatnot without securing permission from the individual colleges and universities. Use either finger, or sending mail to postmaster to get address information. Usernames: Try fingering lastname, firstname, or fmllllll (f = first initial, m = middle initial, llllll = lastname). You cannot finger to bitnet addresses. ---CUT HERE------------------------------------------------------------------- Ball State University: University Computing Services: username@bsuvax1.bitnet Some faculty and grad students have accounts on this machine. CS: username@bsu-cs.bsu.edu Barnard: See Columbia. Boston Univ.: Main campus system: buacca.bu.edu (buacca.bitnet) Everyone can get accounts on this machine, but not everyone does. Call the person and ask (they may never log on even if they have an account). Student Directory 617-353-3700, Faculty 617-353-2000. Usernames are ssspppc where sss = school (or major if College of Liberal Arts) (SMG - School of Management, POL - poli sci, etc.) ppp = 3 characters of semi-random garbage c = the letter 'c', indicating a Course account Mail to listserv@buacca.bu.edu with "WHOIS whoever" will catch anyone subscribed to a LISTSERV list (not many people). Unix accounts: user@bu.edu CS: bu-cs.bu.edu (bucs{a,d,e} and bu-cs all represent the same system). cs.bu.edu Undergrad CS: bucsf.bu.edu. Engineering: buengc.bu.edu Bowdoin: fl*@bowdoin.bitnet, where f is the first initial, l* is the lastname up to some number of characters. Brown: Undergrads: brownvm.brown.edu (brownvm.bitnet) Username is some random alphanumerics. CS: cs.brown.edu Bryn Mawr College: F_LLLLLLLLLL@cc.brynmawr.edu (F_LLLLLLLLLL@BRYNMAWR.BITNET) The former is fingerable, unlike the .bitnet address. This machine is mostly used by undergrads. California Inst. of Tech: Undergrads/Grads: tybalt.caltech.edu, romeo.caltech.edu, juliet.caltech.edu, hamlet.caltech.edu. (caltech.bitnet, citjulie.bitnet) Carnegie Mellon University: Undergrad: andrew.cmu.edu Grad CS: cs.cmu.edu Grad Robotics: ri.cmu.edu Mail sent to Fname.MI.Lname@cs.cmu.edu works, even if the name is slightly misspelled. Usernames are arbitrary names selected by the user. If you wish to send to the username, add a + at the end of the name: mkant+@cs.cmu.edu vma.cc.cmu.edu is the gateway to bitnet. Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland: po.cwru.edu is the post office. Every student and professor has access to email through this machine. (Not everybody activates their account, however.) User ids are of the form fml##, where ## is a number, probably less than 30. The number is omitted if equal to 1. If there's no middle initial, m is an 'x'. skybridge.scl.cwru.edu is the server for the undergraduate computer lab. The user ids on that machine are the full last name, for the most part. (Mainly CS and EE's on this machine.) If a student is in the dorms, they have their own internet number, so you can FTP to their PC. Such machines are named b#####.student.cwru.edu where # is some digit. Columbia: Undergrads: cunix{a,b,d}.cc.columbia.edu Available to anybody affiliated with Columbia, including Barnard. The best way to finger them is name@cunix.cc.columbia.edu. CS Grads: cs.columbia.edu Also try: ctr.columbia.edu Cornell: Undergrads: vax5.cit.cornell.edu, cornella.cit.cornell.edu Postmaster won't give out addresses. Try: @cs.cornell.edu, @svax.cs.cornell.edu, cornellf.cit.cornell.edu Bitnet: cornella.bitnet, crnlvax5.bitnet, cornellc.bitnet (gateway). Username was previously their initials. As of Fall 1990, usernames are now randomly generated 4 character IDs, which do not resemble real names at all. [Actually, they are an (unknown) hash function of the student's social security number.] Since they have no online email address directory (or published hardcopy list, for that matter), and the administrators do not give out usernames over the phone, it is virtually impossible to reach someone via email unless you talk to them in person first. So your only bet is to call the Cornell Registrar at 607-255-4232, ask for the person's street address, and write them a letter. Dartmouth: Send mail to fname.lname@dartmouth.edu (or fname.mi.lname if it is a very common name). If the name is ambiguous, you might want to finger fname.mi.lname@dartmouth.edu for info about exact mail address. Dartmouth.Edu resolves all mail through the Dartmouth Name Directory, which stores preferred email addresses for all students, faculty, and staff members. If the name is unique, you can even send mail to name@dartmouth.edu. Most undergrads have accounts on mac.dartmouth.edu. Students who don't use any email address get the automatic default, @hinman.dartmouth.edu, which prints out the email and drops it into campus mail. Duke: Undergrads: northlab.ac.duke.edu, dukeac.duke.edu. Username is initials. Network of Suns. Earlham: Students: username@yang.earlham.edu (or earlham.bitnet) Administration: username@yin.earlham.edu (or earlham.bitnet) Usernames are of the form LLLLLLF. Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech): All Users (faculty/staff/students): prism.gatech.edu Prism is a Yellow Pages/Mail domain to which all students, faculty and staff have access through accounts issued by the computer center. A number of users, especially faculty and graduate students in Computer Science, have access to departmental resources which are not part of the Prism domain. They may get their mail there, though typically people use prism as their main mail drop and forward it from there to their home systems. CS Dept (Faculty, staff, PhD students): gatech.edu, boa.gatech.edu Usernames: students: gtXXXXy (example: gt6953b) XXXX = last 4 digits of Campus PO Box y = A-E to make it unique (PO Boxes are shared, blaa) faculty/staff: first and last initial with numeric suffix to make it unique. (example: sh12) Accounts issued by other departments have different conventions, but users typically set up the appropriate forwarding addresses. Also try: username@hydra.gatech.edu, prism's postmaster will look up addresses so long as it does not become an onerous task. Most faculty and researchers have accounts on gtri01.gatech.edu (gtri01.bitnet), with usernames of up to 8 characters of the format fllllll. Harvard: Undergrads: @husc9.harvard.edu, @husc9.uucp Also try: husc{2,3,4,6,7,8,9,11}, harvard.harvard.edu. Username is lastname, with a number appended in case of duplicates. During Summer '90, Harvard moved most undergrad and grad accounts to husc9 instead of husc4. Harvey Mudd, Claremont CA: Undergrads: fllllll@hmcvax.claremont.edu flllllll@jarthur.claremont.edu Indiana University: silver.ucs.indiana.edu -- Unix, All students ( mostly CS undergrads) copper.ucs.indiana.edu -- These two are VAXen running Ultrix (UNIX) They're student machines. bronze.ucs.indiana.edu -- This is DEC RISC (Not a VAX) running Ultrix. Staff only... iuvax.cs.indiana.edu -- Unix, CS students ( mostly grad students and faculty ) Student/Staff VAX/VMS machines: gold.ucs.indiana.edu, aqua.ucs.indiana.edu, jade.ucs.indiana.edu, amber.ucs.indiana.edu, rose.ucs.indiana.edu Johns Hopkins: Accounts are located on jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu jhuvms.hcf.jhu.edu jhuvm.hcf.jhu.edu All are on bitnet. Kansas State Univ.: VM/SP (soon to be VM/XA) ------------------------ ksuvm.ksu.edu All students, faculty, and staff. This is by far the most popular machine. Unix ---- matt.ksu.ksu.edu All students and faculty. phobos.cis.ksu.edu CS undergrads. deimos.cis.ksu.edu CS grads. ksuvax1.cis.ksu.edu CS grads and faculty. harris.cis.ksu.edu CS grads and faculty. eecea.eece.ksu.edu EE grads and faculty. Lehigh University: Undergrads: username@ns.cc.lehigh.edu Help with specific userids can be obtained from lucc@ns.cc.lehigh.edu. MIT: Finger name@mit.edu for info about the person and mail address. This is the same info that's used to create the MIT phonebook, so it is as accurate. (One can finger help@mit.edu for instructions in using this service.) All students and faculty may get an account from Project Athena. Their mail address will be @athena.mit.edu, even though athena is a distributed workstation environment. Finger @ai.mit.edu for AI graduate students, faculty, and some undergrads. Also try @media-lab.mit.edu (= media-lab.media.mit.edu) for the MIT Media Lab. Try @lcs.mit.edu for Laboratory of Computer Science faculty and some graduate students. MITVMA.MIT.EDU is the gateway to bitnet. Michigan State Univ.: @frith.egr.msu.edu @eecae.ee.msu.edu @cpsin.cps.msu.edu @cpsvax.cps.msu.edu Michigan Technological University: mtus5.cts.mtu.edu or mtus5.bitnet most students have accounts with the format FMLASTNA First initial-Middle initial-LASTNAMe (8 letters total) finger does not work on these machines. New Mexico State Univ.: Virtually all email addresses are of the form fllllll@nmsu.edu. Finger is not well supported. Mail to postmaster should help. (Also, if you have an account, there is a postmaster program.) Northwestern: Undergrads: formerly nuacc.acns.nwu.edu (nuacc.bitnet). Username is lastname. Campus mail is being moved over to casbah.acns.nwu.edu, and all new accounts will be created on this machine. Mail sent to Firstname_Lastname@nwu.edu should reach the person if they have an account. Tech grad students: username@eecs.nwu.edu Oberlin: Many students and faculty have accounts on ocvax{a,b}, which can be reached as oberlin.bitnet and ocvaxa.cc.oberlin.edu. Student User IDs are of the form: S+first & last initials + last 4 digits of SSN (e.g. SDG1234) Faculty IDs are of the form: F + lastname. Best bet is to send mail to postmaster@oberlin.bitnet CS students/faculty: occs.cs.oberlin.edu (student usernames are mostly last names, occasionally with a first initial to disambiguate; faculty and staff are generally 3 initials). You can also send mail to postmaster. Ohio University (Athens OH): CS (UNIX): fllll@oucsace.cs.ohiou.edu CS (VMS): oucsduce.cs.ohiou.edu EE (grad students): fllll@bobcat.ent.ohiou.edu, @redskins.ent.ohiou.edu Undergrads (class accounts): OUACCVMB.BITNET Faculty: OUACCVMA.BITNET Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology: Only Graduate Students. Their host, ogccse, is @cse.ogc.edu. This recently changed to cse.ogi.edu. Penn State Univ.: Undergrads: psuvm.psu.edu (psuvm.bitnet) Engineering Computer Lab: @psuhcx.psu.edu psuvax1.bitnet (dba psuvax1.cs.psu.edu, psuvax1.uucp) is their bitnet<-->uucp gateway. Princeton: Undergrads: phoenix.princeton.edu, pucc.princeton.edu (VM) pucc.bitnet. (You can finger on phoenix, but not on pucc.) Some people also have accounts on bogey.princeton.edu and gauguin.princeton.edu Usernames are usually FMLLLLLL. Purdue: At Purdue, engineering students (undergrad/grad) have accounts on machines on the Engineering Computer Network (ECN). There are hundreds of machines, but the main ones are named according to a fairly discernible system, i.e. e?.ecn.purdue.edu = Electrical c?.ecn.purdue.edu = Civil k?.ecn.purdue.edu = Chemical g?.ecn.purdue.edu = Nuclear/Aero m?.ecn.purdue.edu = Mechanical p?.ecn.purdue.edu = Potter Library In each case, "?" is one of 'a', 'b', 'c', etc..check your local host tables or nameserver for a current list. Undergrads usually end up on the 'n' series of machines... en, mn, cn, and gn. Effective 10/16/90, mail to ecn hosts need only be labeled with the local domain. For example, user@ecn.purdue.edu. Mail sent there will automatically be forwarded to the users mailbox. Usernames on ecn machines are assigned according to user preferences. Try the usual (initials, fllllll, first name, last name, etc.). You can send mail to ecn.purdue.edu (which will forward it to the appropriate machine). Also, if your finger supports arguments, doing a 'finger -l lastname' will find people by name regardless of account. Other students (CS, math/stat, and science majors) usually have accounts on machines operated by the Purdue University Computing Center (PUCC). These machines are all in the ".cc.purdue.edu" subdomain. Many usernames are based on the user's last name and initials, but many still use three letter/number combinations which have nothing to do with the user's name. Computing center staff usernames are either a name chosen by the user, or a three-letter combination beginning with "a". Additionally, "finger" with a name argument will find all people with that name, so try "finger -l lastname". Students are found on the 'instructional' machines; the distribution of major courses is approximately like this: expert = low-level courses for non CS or EE majors, some CS courses sage = more low-level courses, first semester CS mentor = most other CS courses Students not in one of these courses may still have an account on one of these three machines, since there are many smaller groups to which accounts are issued. Research users are found scattered around all the PUCC machines, but mace, boiler, and j are the most likely places to find them. Staff can always be reached through 'staff' regardless of where they have their accounts. In addition to those, there is an IBM mainframe which is found on the Internet as vm.cc.purdue.edu or on BITNET as PURCCVM. It is used primarily by research users and Computer Technology majors. Usernames are either based on the person's real name or Xyyy where yyy is a 3-character PUCC ID. Graduate CS students are found on machines in the ".cs.purdue.edu" subdomain, including "arthur", "mordred", "merlin", and other machines named after characters from the Arthurian legends. Mail to cs.purdue.edu usually works. Veterinary students are found on machines in the ".vet.purdue.edu" subdomain; these machines are named after animals or other vet terms e.g. "dog", "goat", "pharm"...Agricultural/Agronomy Engineering students are found on machines in the ".acn.purdue.edu" subdomain; these include "harvest", "barn", etc...Some folks in chemistry can be found on machines in the ".chem.purdue.edu" subdomain; many of these are named after items from the Dr. Who series, e.g. "doctor", "tardis", "k9"...Some folks in psychology can be found on machines in the ".psych.purdue.edu" subdomain; these machines are named after Latin/South American countries, e.g. "peru", "brazil", "mexico", "panama"...Some folks in biology can be found on machines in the ".bio.purdue.edu" subdomain; some of these machines are named after Tolkien characters, e.g. "bilbo", "gollum"...Some folks in physics can be found on machines in the ".physics.purdue.edu" subdomain; these machines are named after physicists, e.g. "maxwell", "newton"... The Krannert School of Management is in the .mgmt subdomain, with hosts zeus and hera. Most management students will be found on a PUCC machine. Rice: Mail may be sent to @rice.edu. Note that you can't finger this machine. Off-campus electronic access (email, netnews) is restricted for undergraduates and first year graduate students. In practice, this applies only to students on OWLNET machines because the departments have their own policies. [What this really boils down to is that students on OWLNET machines have to fill out a form requesting off-campus electronic access.] In any event, even the Rice students that can't send out mail can receive it. Here's a small list of machines to try when searching for a user. Department machines are generally for MS/PhD graduate students, faculty, and staff. The OWLNET machines are used for classes. (Thus the user population on OWLNET machines consists primarily of undergraduates and graduate students in professional degree plans such as Master of Computer Science.) NOTE: all the names given should have ".rice.edu" appended to them. Department Machine Names ========================================== ========================== Computer Science: titan, iapetus Electrical and Computer Engineering: mu, zeta, eta, kappa, tavi Math: math1 Mathematical Sciences: masc1, masc6 Mechanical Engineering: caesar Statistics: stat1 Office of Networking and Computer Systems: brazos, uncle-bens OWLNET: great-horned, marsh, snowy, pygmy, great-gray RIT (Rochester Inst. of Tech): ritvax.bitnet Rensselaer Polytechnic Inst. (RPI): pawl.rpi.edu, uruguay.acm.rpi.edu Rutgers: CS faculty: cs.rutgers.edu (alias aramis.rutgers.edu) CS grad studs: paul.rutgers.edu CS undergrad: topaz.rutgers.edu CS Systems Staff: cs.rutgers.edu, klinzhai.rutgers.edu, hardees.rutgers.edu Engineering: zodiac.rutgers.edu, cancer.rutgers.edu, pisces.rutgers.edu Math: math.rutgers.edu Other machines: elbereth.rutgers.edu Usernames are fml or llllll or fllllll or fmllllll. Stanford: Undergrads: macbeth.stanford.edu, hamlet.stanford.edu [Note: these machines are DEC-20 machines running TOPS-20 and will eventually be phased out.] A much better place to check is portia.stanford.edu, where most of the class accounts exist. Such accounts are not deleted after the class is over. Your best bet is to finger using the person's last name, as students may choose any username. On macbeth and hamlet the usernames are of the form U.User, where the first two letters are the same. You can also try fingering fmllllll@stanford.edu. This uses the whois server on argus.stanford.edu. (Also try flllll or llllll, depending on how common the name is.) This info isn't updated as often as it should be; students (including undergrads) can update their own email addresses, but few know how to or care. or run whois -h stanford.edu Syracuse Univ.: CS Grads/Faculty: top.cis.syr.edu Some grads have accounts on rodan.acs.syr.edu. (rodan doesn't allow finger access) logiclab.syr.edu is for mathematical logic and logic programming grads/faculty. suvm.acs.syr.edu and sunrise.acs.syr.edu are run by the SU Academic Computing Center and undergrads usually have accounts on sunrise (which is a VAX VMS cluster). Both hosts are on bitnet as suvm and sunrise. Swarthmore: All Students: xxxYY@swat.swarthmore.edu, where xxx is the student's initials, YY the year of graduation. In case of duplicates, extra "x" are added between the initials and year. If there are triplicates, they keep on adding x's. You can also use campus.swarthmore.edu (swarthmr.bitnet). If they have no middle name, use "_" instead of the middle initial. To find people, send mail to postmaster. Faculty and staff have usernames as their last names on campus.swarthmore.edu. CS: cs.swarthmore.edu Tufts University: tufts.edu, tufts.bitnet Univ. of Aalborg: @iesd.auc.dk Univ. of Atlanta: @auc.UUCP Univ. of California, Berkeley: Many different accounts on many machines. Undergrad CS/EE, 1st Year Grad: cory.berkeley.edu (This is for undergrad juniors and seniors and first year graduate students. Most other graduate students have their own workstations. For freshmen and sophomores, one must look for a class account or ocf public cluster.) First Year Graduate CS students: ernie.berkeley.edu (Ernie accounts for other CS grad students depend on funding. Many grad students get their own workstations, so they may let their Ernie accounts lapse.) CS Faculty: ernie.berkeley.edu or a workstation EE Faculty: janus.berkeley.edu, esvax, ic, cad, or a workstation Names for the above accounts are usually, but not always, combinations of the user's real first, middle and last names and/or initials. However, finger will search the "real name" field as well as the account name. There are many class accounts (which all students get). These are found on web.berkeley.edu,sim.berkeley.edu, bard.berkeley.edu, and xcssun.berkeley.edu. zooey, buddy, franny, and seymour too, except they're being retired. Danube, amazon, and volga and a cluster of stars (named after stars) are supposed to be the replacements. sim has been merged with cory. web and buddy hold classes that freshmen and sophomores often take. seymour and franny are often used for classes for business majors. Class account usernames are typically cnnn-mxx or ennn-mxx, where 'c' or 'e' denotes CS or EE, nnn is the course number, m is the section number (not always used), and xx are two letters. qal.berkeley.edu is used for courses in "practical computer use" (taught by the anthropology department). Account names are 193xxx, where xxx is the last name of the user. Graduate Math: brahms.berkeley.edu, bosco.berkeley.edu, math.berkeley.edu Math Faculty: cartan.berkeley.edu Stat Department: stat.berkeley.edu Mech. E Profs & Grads: euler.berkeley.edu, tycho.berkeley.edu Public Cluster (some undergrads): ocf.berkeley.edu School of Education: soe.berkeley.edu Other machines to try: agate.berkeley.edu, ucbvax.berkeley.edu garnet.berkeley.edu is the most likely place for a pay-for-use account. Some Profs: violet.berkeley.edu. This is a pay-for-use machine, so few real people are on it. Many depts maintain accounts on violet for profs though, so this is the machine to try for profs affiliated with departments with no real computing facilities. Almost anyone on campus can pay for a violet account. Some of the class accounts are also on congo. Generally addresses for the first semester classes are: CS 60A - c60a-__@danube CS 3 - c3-1a__@amazon or c3-1b__@congo Univ. of California/Davis: @ucdavis.edu -- works if you know their account name @clover.ucdavis.edu -- works for anyone in the CS department whois -h ucdavis.edu Univ. of California/Irvine: CS Undergrads: bonnie.ics.uci.edu CS Grads/Staff/Faculty: ics.uci.edu EE: orion.uci.edu Userid usually FLLLLLLL (8 char max); sometimes FFFFFFFL. Faculty userids are usually their last names. Univ. of California/Los Angeles (UCLA): CS: @cs.ucla.edu @oahu.cs.ucla.edu MATH: @math.ucla.edu, @sonia.math.ucla.edu, @oak.math.ucla.edu (graduate students, staff, faculty) EE grads & faculty: ee.ucla.edu (network of RTs and SUNs running unix. Each machine has the name of a famous engineer: watt.ee.ucla.edu, joule.ee.ucla.edu, etc) Usernames vary; try fname, lastname,... Class Accounts: pic.ucla.edu (PIC = program in computing) These get cleared every quarter. Account names are usually the course number followed by three letters chosen by the student. If you finger @laguna.pic.ucla.edu, you get more detailed info, such as when the user last logged on, etc. Engineering: seas.ucla.edu This is a server for a network for the school of engineering and applied sciences. Any engineering graduate student can get an account on it, and many undergrads have accounts on it for classes. This machine has access to USENET. Anybody: oac.ucla.edu An IBM 3090. Anyone in UCLA can get an open access account on this to send mail, etc. Account names on this machine are terribly cryptic (such as IZZYR33). Univ. of California/Santa Cruz: Undergrads: ucscb.ucsc.edu Other hosts include ucsc{c-o}.ucsc.edu, ucscvm.ucsc.edu, etc. All these hosts (except for ucscb) are on bitnet as the first part of their domain name. Univ. of California/San Diego (UCSD): ucsd.edu (sdcc13.ucsd.edu?) Univ. of Chicago: Undergraduates: midway.uchicago.edu (formerly tank.uchicago.edu) (midway.uchicago.edu serves as a mail server for machines named quads.uchicago.edu and ellis.uchicago.edu) CS Grads: gargoyle.uchicago.edu Math: zaphod.uchicago.edu Education: paideia.uchicago.edu Chemistry: pico.uchicago.edu Also Try: uchep.uchicago.edu Univ. of Colorado/Boulder: tramp.colorado.edu Univ. of Illinois, Champ.: Student Accounts: uxa.cso.uiuc.edu Every freshman gets an account on this machine. Usernames are usually the user's three initials, followed by five random characters. Graduate Students: uxe.cso.uiuc.edu, s.cs.uiuc.edu Grad Stud Research: p.cs.uiuc.edu CS/Grad Stud Research: m.cs.uiuc.edu (Encore Multimax) Classes: ux1.cso.uiuc.edu, uxf.cso.uiuc.edu hendrix.ece.uiuc.edu (Purely instructional. 1 semester accounts on this machine.) Faculty: are mostly on uxf whois -h uiuc.edu It is usually possible to send mail to f-lastname@uiuc.edu or firstname-lastname@uiuc.edu. If that fails, you will get a message which tells you why the email could not be sent. From BITNET, it is possible to get information about any student by executing the command 'TELL PHSERVE AT UIUCVMD firstname lastname RETURN ALL.' Univ. of Kansas: Student Accounts: kuhub.cc.ukans.edu Most user ID's are their last names (first 6 letters). UNLV: Student Accounts: arrakis.nevada.edu uns-helios.nevada.edu is used by some students, but may be changing into a research machine. Univ. of Louisville: @ULKYVX.BITNET Univ. of Lowell: CS grads and undergrads: fllllll@hawk.ulowell.edu All students get accounts on the VMS system, (finger does not work), with a name like: llllllf@{elm,maple}.ulowell.edu. If the username is not unique, then they will add digits from the user's social security number until it is unique. Univ. of Maine: Campus mainframe: username@maine.bitnet CS Department: username@alpine.umcs.maine.edu CS faculty and students: userid@gandalf.umcs.maine.edu Univ. of Maryland: umd5.umd.edu, cs.umd.edu Univ. of Massachusetts/Amherst: Graduate students: cs.umass.edu Username is person's lastname. Univ. of Michigan: All students can get accounts on ub.cc.umich.edu, but it is not a unix environment (its MTS), so send mail to postmaster. This has been "fixed" so that it can now (11/90) handle finger. Student accounts are generally firstname_lastname@ub.cc.umich.edu or @um.cc.umich.edu. (Try fingering at ubmts.cc.umich.edu for these users. The bitnet mail address is umichub.bitnet.) Alternately: telnet to 35.1.1.6 press return until you get a "Which Host?" prompt type FINGER UB NAME to get finger information for NAME Engineers get accounts on an apollo ring (caen.engin.umich.edu). Grad students in EECS get accounts on eecs.umich.edu. (The specific machine names are dip and zip, but eecs forwards appropriately.) Usernames are either lastname, or of the form Fname_Lname. 313- ann arbor info 764-1817 998-7999 Univ. of Minnesota: CS Grad StudsL: umn-cs.cs.umn.edu Username is same as the student's last name. Undergrads in technical majors will have temporary accounts on ux.acss.umn.edu, vx.acss.umn.edu, or ca.acss.umn.edu, for classes. Univ. of Nebraska at Omaha: Students & Faculty: zeus.unl.edu (unoma1.bitnet) Math/CS Students: unocss.unl.edu (not fingerable) Univ. of Nebraska at Lincoln: Engineering: engvms.unl.edu Computing Staff and some students: crcvms.unl.edu CS students: fergvax.unl.edu Univ. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill: Medical School: students, staff, and faculty. finger name@boone.med.unc.edu finger name@winton.med.unc.edu (They alternate each incoming year between the 2 servers to parcel out disk space better, so fingering @med.unc.edu won't work. However, once you know the user id, send mail to user@med.unc.edu.)
