10. URLS to surf

These are all XREF's gathered from the documents. Maybe this page will be relocated outside of this issue. The URLS are in plain text, but you can use cut + paste. One day I'll have the time to write paragraphs to describe the URLS and sequence them better (also read them!).

OK this is pre-release notes, but I think you'd rather have it than not. It's behind schedule, because I have only recently aquired a cheap phone, before that it was connect, exchange email, disconnect.

10.1 Non http: URLS

Many of these URLS are actually files found on your CDROM or hard drive. They may 'fail', either because the file is not there, or because your server only issues files from the /home/ftp directory (httpd-htdocs).

Almost all files are to be found in several places - this redundency is an Internet security feature. If your favourite host becomes unavailable, another host SOMEWHERE may have it. Archie is a good tool for finding files on University servers.

I.E. you may have to use the URL's as start clues.

10.2 Harware URLS

Although Issue-1 is mostly about hardware, I'm not particularly interested in it. It's just the first obstacle to overcome. If you know of any URLS that should be added to the list (or replace it completely!) please call.

Hardware is also discussed in various HOWTO's. ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/usenet/news-FAQS/comp.sys.ibmpc.hardware.chips

10.3 LDP URLS

This is where the Linux Documentation Project is. It is followed by other URL's of large Intenet-BBS sites. Some are example pages of interest.

One day I'll have time to reformat this list to be readable.
