I know of a couple of alternative places.
I too got tired of Netcom's anon ftp server. An unaltered, ASCII copy of Tim's CP-FAQ is available as http://www.isse.gmu.edu/~pfarrell/crypto/CP-FAQ This is a low usage site, so response should be fine. BTW, there is a page for the DC-area Cypherpunks as http://www.isse.gmu.edu/~pfarrell/dccp/index.html And a guide to every US GovernmentWWW page that I could find (including locations of spook facilities) starting at http://www.isse.gmu.edu/~pfarrell/government/usgov.html Other crypto related resources are available starting at http://www.isse.gmu.edu/~pfarrell/crypto.html Pat Pat Farrell Grad Student http://www.isse.gmu.edu/students/pfarrell Info.
