Subject: [STATE-COORD-L] National USGenWeb Archives and USGenConnect Boards
Hi! Just wanted to share some information on the National USGenConnect
Archives and USGenConnect Board situation that I recently found out and
thought
perhaps inquiring minds would want to know ...
National USGenWeb Archives
Apparently, the fttp:// address is not working, but if you replace the first
fttp:// with http:// it works... This may just be a temporary situation, read
the emails below...
>From 2 messages from Linda Lewis to the Archives list:
at 12:58 Saturday:
Ask them to change the url to
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb and
it should work.
We might have to edit all our tocs and use
http://ftp.rootsweb.com/ to
avoid this problem.
at 2:06 Saturday:
It's not absolutely, positively necessary "yet". <g> I've been
changing
some over gradually, as a page is updated. In the daily-uploads reports,
I have been using
http://ftp for a few months, and it cut down on a lot
of complaints.
The ftp://ftp address should work soon, though; so no need to panic. ;)
Second, USGenConnect Boards hard drive died that had the February 2001 info on
it, they are still trying to get the archived messages for February back
up and
running and will announce on the USGenConnect List as the situation
develops...
Hope this helps resolve some of the questions your CCs might have...
