            UUPC/extended 1.13b Installation and User Reference

            World Wide Web

            The WWW page http://www.kew.com a link to our download site
            for web browsers.

            KENDRA ELECTRONIC WONDERWORKS' Automated E-Mail Service

            Kendra Electronic Wonderworks maintains a automated mail
            server for maintaining the various mailing lists related to
            UUPC/extended and for sending out files.  Send a mail mes-
            sage containing the commands "help", one command per line,
            in the body of the message to ftpmail@kew.com for instruc-
            tions.

                Note: To send binary files through the mail, the server
                      automatically encodes binary files using the pro-
                      gram UUENCODE.  You will require a copy of the
                      companion utility UUDECODE, which is standard on
                      most UNIX systems and available for DOS, to con-
                      vert the files back to binary.

            Anonymous Kermit

            Anonymous Kermit support was dropped in May 1982 when kew-
            gate was converted from DOS to OS/2, as sharing the serial
            port between UUCICO and C-Kermit for OS/2 was not possible.
            While this is now possible with the current versions of
            UUCICO and C-Kermit, C-Kermit's server mode does not time-
            out, detect lost modem carrier or otherwise allow dislodging
            a hung phone call.  If/when C-Kermit can be used without
            fear of hanging the serial port, the Kermit anonymous serv-
            ice will be again be made public.

                Note: If you have no other way to download UUPC/extended
                      and have Kermit, please contact Kendra Electronic
                      Wonderworks to see if the service can be enabled
                      for you.  However, please use another method (such
                      as the Listserv) instead.

            Anonymous UUCP

            The UUPC/extended files are archived in the directory
            "~nuucp" on kewgate and can be downloaded via anonymous
            UUCP.  To use anonymous UUCP, define entries for the system
            kewgate in your SYSTEMS file and PERMISSN file.  The  SYS-
            TEMS file entry should define the phone number as 781-279-
            9816, the user id as "nuucp", and the password as "nuucp".
            kewgate uses a Zoom Telephonics V.34bis modem, so connect
            speed may be up to 28800 baud, depending on your modem.
            kewgate presently accepts anonymous UUCP phone calls 24
            hours a day, seven days a week, except for interruptions for
            system maintenance.  We reserve the right to change these
            hours without notice.

                                    Appendix 4: How to Get UUPC/extended

                Note: The sample systems file in the documentation ar-
                      chive includes an entry for kewgate.

                Note: You cannot send mail or files to kewgate via the
                      anonymous dial-in.  Send mail to help@kew.com, our
                      normal e-mail support address.

            The files are located in the home directory for nuucp, so
            files should be requested via the UUCP command with the
            syntax ~nuucp/filename.  For example, to retrieve the index
            for the archive to your local public directory, issue the
            command:

                 UUCP  kewgate!~nuucp/index  /uupc/public

                Note: Effective with release 1.12e of UUPC/extended, the
                      directory you use download files to via the UUCP
                      command must have write access enabled for it in
                      the PERMISSN file.

            The UUCICO program must then be invoked to actually process
            the request.  Users should retrieve the file index first,
            and then issue additional requests for the actual files
            wanted based on the current directory listing.

            CompuServe

            The archives are loaded to CompuServe's UNIX Forum (GO
            CIS:UNIXFORUM).  The files can be searched for within the
            forum using the keyword UUPC.  As not every release is
            loaded to CompuServe, contact the UUPC/extended Help desk
            (from CompuServe, >Internet: help@kew.com) before download-
            ing files from CIS which are more than two months old.

            Because of CompuServe's six character limit on file names,
            the files uploaded to CompuServe do not follow the normal
            UUPC/extended naming convention described below.  Rather,
            the files are named UPCXX.nnn, where 'XX' is the archive
            suffix as described below and 'nnn' is the version number.
            Files should be downloaded as upc13b?.ZIP to restore their
            normal DOS names.

            Registering Your Current Copy

            To receive a copy of the next major release when it becomes
            available, register your current copy according to the in-
            structions in How to Register, page 223.  You can also order
            the current release from us using the form in How to Regis-
            ter.

            General Description of the Files

            You will need version 2.04g or later of PKUNZIP or version
            5.0P1 of the public domain UNZIP utility to unpack the file
            archives.  PKUNZIP and/or UNZIP is available at most of the
            same places as UUPC/extended, including the KENDRA ELEC-
            TRONIC WONDERWORKS listserv.

            The available files are listed below in Table 28 - Manifest
            of UUPC/extended Files Available for Download.  For those
            table entries with multiple file names group together (such
            as upc13b13.zip, upc13b12.zip and upc13b13.zip), all of the
            files in the group should be downloaded together to provide
            the full functionality for the specified environment.

            The documentation archive includes the formatted documents
            describing UUPC/extended (*.PRN), sample configuration
            files, and supplemental information files (*.TXT).

               HTML Archive Contents

            The HTML archive contains the UUPC/extended Installation and
            User Reference manual been formatted for browsing using a
            web browser.

               PostScript Archive Contents

            The PostScript archive contains the UUPC/extended
            Installation and User Reference manual been formatted for
            printing on a PostScript printer.

               Program Archive 1 of 3

            The first program archive (upc13bd1.zip,  upc13bb1.zip,
            upc13bw1.zip, upc13b11.zip, upc13b21.zip and upc13bn1.zip)
            includes programs which are mandatory for most, if not all,
            installations.

               Program Archive 2 of 3

            The second program archive (upc13bd2.zip, upc13bb2.zip,
            upc13bw2.zip, upc13b12.zip, upc13b22.zip and upc13bn2.zip)

            required.

               Program Archive 3 of 3

                      archives may claim to 1 of 3 and 2 of 3, but they
