-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to TSX-11's Linux FTP site!

	docs/LDP	Linux Documentation Project work.  A series of
			books on Linux, at various stages of completion.

	sources		sources to Linux, broken down by whether system
			sources (including libc.a), sources to system
			programs, sources to usr.bin, and library sources.

	binaries	various binaries for Linux
			(use the tar and compress programs found on the 
			root disk or in binaries/usr.bin to unpack these)

			by its author(s)

	BETA		software that is considered a little better
			by its author(s)

	patches		contains patches to Linux (typically, but not always,
			patches to the system sources, such as patches to

TSX-11 does not yet have a mail server --- I'm working on it....

If you need mail service, please try the mail server available at
sunsite.unc.edu.  Mail ftpmail@sunsite.unc.edu for more information.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

To upload stuff --- please use the directory /incoming.  It is
world-writable, but not world-readable, so you (or anybody else) will
not be able to see stuff which you drop there until we move it to the
proper place the directory hierarchy.  

Please send mail to ftp-linux@tsx-11.mit.edu after you leave something
there, so we can pick it up as soon as possible.  Get and read the file
/incoming/README for more *important* information on how to submit files
to the tsx-11 archive.  *REALLY, please do this*

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The email address for digests of comp.os.linux.* is
