|
|
Univ. of Delaware:
|
|
All undergraduate students, graduate students and faculty have
|
|
accounts on the university system. The computer name is
|
|
brahms.udel.edu
|
|
also there are chopin.udel.edu, bach.udel.edu and ravel.udel.edu, but
|
|
these are redundant because they share accounts and files with brahms.
|
|
The login name is a random 5-digit number until the user changes it,
|
|
then it is whatever the user picks. Fingering last names will work to
|
|
find the login name, but since there are thousands of accounts, it may
|
|
produce an overload of information.
|
|
|
|
The College of Marine Studies maintains a computer system. Students
|
|
and faculty have accounts with login names of their choosing on
|
|
several computers, such as
|
|
earthview.cms.udel.edu
|
|
mingming.cms.udel.edu
|
|
chester.cms.udel.edu
|
|
There are several other sparcstations around but they share accounts
|
|
with the ones named above.

Campus: try f-lastname@uiuc.edu and firstname-lastname@uiuc.edu. It
|
|
is usually possible to send mail to f-lastname@uiuc.edu or
|
|
firstname-lastname@uiuc.edu. If that fails, you will get a message
|
|
which tells you why the email could not be sent.
|
|
Student Accounts: As of Fall 1992: ux4.cso.uicc.edu (those entering
|
|
before then have accounts on uxa.cso.uiuc.edu) Every freshman gets

|
|
For Staff and Faculty info, use 'finger lastname@uic.edu' or Gopher to
|
|
uic.edu, and select "The Campus" menu entry, then "Phonebook". Use
|
|
the e-mail alias for best response.
|
|
Student Info: Not yet easily available. However, if you know the
|
|
person's userid, you can 'finger U12345@uic.edu' which will give you
|
|
stats on the account, if active.
|
|
Engineering: Use 'finger name@bert.eecs.uic.edu'
|
|
The PostMaster will NOT help you in finding people, as the only
|
|
resources available are described above.
|
|
|

SENDING COMMANDS TO WHOIS
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
If you have BITNET access, you can query the WHOIS server interactively,
|
|
using the TELL command. For instance:
|
|
TELL WHOIS AT UKCC WHOIS FOOBLE
|
|
or
|
|
TELL WHOIS AT UKCC GUESS AT NKU BOOGLE
|
|
|
|
If you don't have access to BITNET, you can query the WHOIS server via
|
|
electronic mail. Send your email to whois@ukcc.uky.edu, and place your
|
|
commands in the body (NOT the Subject line) of the message. The HELP
|
|
command will send you back a full list of commands.

|
|
uns-helios.nevada.edu is used by some students, but may be
|
|
changing into a research machine.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Louisville: @ULKYVX.BITNET
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Maine:
|
|
Campus mainframe: username@maine.bitnet
|
|
CS Faculty and Students: userid@gandalf.umcs.maine.edu
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Maryland/College Park: Changed: Mon Sep 6 1993
|
|
U.Md. has several campuses, but we currently have information only for
|
|
the College Park campus.
|
|
Employees (faculty and staff): Finger name@umail.umd.edu. Names are
|
|
usually flnumber or firstname_MI_LASTNAME (e.g. dm17 or
|
|
David_L_MATTHEWS)
|
|
All students (grad and undergrad) may request an account on
|
|
wam.umd.edu (Workstations At Maryland). All undergrads (and
|
|
probably graduate students too) may request accounts on eng.umd.edu;
|
|
most engineering graduate students have accounts there, but so do
|
|
non-engineering studentss. Finger using the lastname at these hosts.
|
|
CS Faculty/Staff/Graduate Students: cs.umd.edu; sometimes
|
|
umiacs.umd.edu or cfar.umd.edu
|
|
telnet umail.umd.edu and login as lookup for faculty/staff E-mail
|
|
directory. Campus has universal faculty/staff E-mail on
|
|
info.umd.edu (aka umail.umd.edu). Whois and finger do not work off
|
|
campus for this computer, though. If you know the name, try
|
|
firstname_mi_lastname@umail.umd.edu.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Massachusetts/Amherst: Changed: Tue Jun 29 1993
|
|
Students/Faculty: first.{mi.}last@student.umass.edu (This is on the
|
|
CDC Cyber NOS/VE system.) Another common format is
|
|
first.{mi.}last@saturn.ucc.umass.edu. Saturn is the name of the
|
|
computer. Many people, especially faculty, have a departmental
|
|
abbreviation in place of "student" or "saturn.ucc". Another
|
|
possible form is FML@titan.ucs.umass.edu
|
|
Graduate CS students: cs.umass.edu Username is person's lastname.
|
|
Intro CS courses: S#######@tethys.ucc.umass.edu, where ####### is a
|
|
7-digit student number.
|
|
Engineering: {fi}lastname@ecs.umass.edu. Names defaults to last name,
|
|
but may include the first initial if the last name is not unique.
|
|
Student directory service: (413)-545-1515 for finding a phone number.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Massachusetts/Lowell:
|
|
All CS students and University UNIX users are generally
|
|
addressable as flllllll@cs.ulowell.edu. Adjustments are made
|
|
for conflicts such as adding the middle initial after the
|
|
first, or adding additional letters from the first name.
|
|
|
|
Not all students automatically get accounts on the VMS system,
|
|
but if they do they can be addressed as llllllf@woods.ulowell.edu.
|
|
Finger works on this machine, but isn't very informative. If there is
|
|
a name conflict, they will add letters from the first name or numeric
|
|
digits (1, 2, etc.) until it is unique.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Miami Created: Mon Sep 6 1993
|
|
Rosentiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences:
|
|
whois -h UMIGW.MIAMI.EDU name
|
|
finger name@phone.rsmas.miami.edu
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Michigan:
|
|
The best place to try to find an e-mail address for a faculty,
|
|
students, and staff at U-M is via the X.500 White Pages service.
|
|
There are many ways in which this can be accessed, but one easy
|
|
way is through finger (finger firstname.lastname@umich.edu).
|
|
(The X.500 Directory also contains business addresses, business
|
|
phone numbers, titles, and home addresses and phone numbers in
|
|
the case where the person has granted such permission.)
|
|
If the person has registered an e-mail address, it will appear;
|
|
if the person has not, follow the advice of the X.500 server and
|
|
try fingering the person at um.cc.umich.edu (the mainframe),
|
|
caen.engin.umich.edu (the College of Engineering mail hub), or
|
|
med.umich.edu (the Medical Campus mail hub).
|
|
|
|
People with accounts on um.cc.umich.edu also have a Bitnet
|
|
address: USERxxx@UMICHUM.BITNET where 'xxxx' is the person's
|
|
account on the mainframe.
|
|
|
|
A database of U of Michigan student and faculty phone numbers
|
|
and addresses (not email addresses, just phones) is available through
|
|
the "gopher" server running at gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu port 70, also
|
|
available via telnet to gopher.micro.umn.edu (login: gopher) in the
|
|
"Other gophers" menu or the "phone books" menu. This gopher
|
|
phone number database has been changed to access X.500.
|
|
|
|
Grad students in EECS get accounts on eecs.umich.edu. (The
|
|
specific machine names are dip and zip, but eecs forwards
|
|
appropriately.)
|
|
|
|
Usernames are either lastname, or of the form Fname_Lname.
|
|
313- ann arbor info 764-1817 998-7999
|
|
|
|
If all else fails, you can always mail the request to the U-M
|
|
postmaster at postmaster@umich.edu.
|
|
|
|
Alternately:
|
|
telnet to 35.1.48.149 35.1.48.150 or hermes.merit.edu
|
|
press return until you get a "Which Host?" prompt
|
|
type FINGER UM <return> NAME <return>
|
|
to get finger information for NAME
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Minnesota: Changed: Mon Sep 6 1993
|
|
In general, try fingering fname.mname.lname@umn.edu. Fingering any
|
|
reasonable fragment of the name should work.
|
|
CS Grad students: @cs.umn.edu. General policy is "last name as
|
|
account name, plus first and middle initials if that's not unique",
|
|
but there *are* exceptions.
|
|
Undergrads in technical majors will have temporary accounts on
|
|
maroon.tc.umn.edu or vx.cis.umn.edu. The account names are
|
|
serialized so aren't useful in finding out names. Recently (as of
|
|
late 1992) most class accounts are on mermaid.micro.umn.edu, and are
|
|
named. All Twin Cities campus students have e-mail on
|
|
gold.tc.umn.edu, whether they know it or not.
|
|
Chemistry (faculty, staff, grads): lname@chemsun.chem.umn.edu. The
|
|
login is usually the person's last name.
|
|
Statistics: umnstat.stat.umn.edu. Userid varies; use finger.
|
|
Biochemistry & genetics: often molbio.cbs.umn.edu or lenti.med.umn.edu
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Missouri/Rolla:
|
|
cs.umr.edu
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Missouri/St. Louis:
|
|
CS: arch.umsl.edu
|
|
This machine isn't fingerable, but its address info is
|
|
available by fingering at aber.umsl.edu.
|
|
|
|
Undergrads: clemens.umsl.edu, twain.umsl.edu
|
|
The id can be obtained by fingering either of these machines using the
|
|
last name of the student.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Montreal: Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993

|
|
cwis.unomaha.edu
|
|
The university no longer subscribes to Bitnet, only Internet.
|
|
Undergraduate Students and Faculty: zeus.unomaha.edu
|
|
Main academic VAX running VMS. All computer science students
|
|
receive academic accounts of the form CCXXX where CC is a
|
|
2-character class code and XXX is a number from 000 (usually the
|
|
instructor) up to 999 (usually smaller than 050 in practice). These
|
|
accounts are reset each semester.
|
|
Permanent accounts are also on Zeus, usually a last name or nickname.
|
|
Permanent student accounts are of the form ZAXXX for unaffiliated
|
|
students, or organizational forms like ACMXXX and IEEEXXX for
|
|
members of their respective student organizations. Any
|
|
undergraduate student who asks nicely can get a ZA account, or an
|
|
organizational account if they are a member.
|
|
UNO Chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery: acm.unomaha.edu
|
|
All members have accounts, usually some form of the name (not
|
|
fingerable, this computer is also the former unocss.unomaha.edu in
|
|
case you haven't guessed). Polite mail to
|
|
postmaster@acm.unomaha.edu may yield information about an ACM member
|
|
or math/CS student.

|
|
Univ. of New Brunswick: (Fredericton, NB, Canada)
|
|
|
|
Computing Services: csd.unb.ca
|
|
|
|
All students are automatically given MUSIC accounts on the VM
|
|
service and can send and receive mail, however, there is at
|
|
present no easy way to determine the MUSIC id knowing the name
|
|
of the student. Depending on course requirements, students may
|
|
also have accounts on the MVS or UNIX systems.
|
|
|
|
Requests for non-student userids can be sent to our on-line
|
|
directory server. Send mail to Directry@UNB.Ca, If the 1st
|
|
non-blank line of the mail is Help or Find name, the name will be
|
|
searched and the results mailed back to the address in the From:
|
|
field of the mail. The server is bilingual (English/French) and
|
|
will also respond to the commands Aide or Recherche name.

Try finger lastname@carina.unm.edu. User names are usually of the
|
|
form FLLLLLLL (8 characters max). Accounts may be on many different
|
|
hosts within unm.edu but the finger database on carina seems to know
|
|
where all the accounts are. If carina is unavailable try vesta.

Univ. of Notre Dame:
|
|
|
|
The University of Notre Dame now supports full name human readable
|
|
e-mail addresses, such as John.Q.Student.1@nd.edu. All members
|
|
of the Notre Dame community have e-mail addresses on nd.edu; however,
|
|
at this time (June, 1992) the vast majority of them are
|
|
"uninitialized". This means the user has not specifically told the
|
|
server how to deliver e-mail to this user, so e-mail to this user will
|
|
fail.
|
|
|
|
All members of the Notre Dame community also have userids in our AFS
|
|
file space. Userids in this file space tend to be of the form
|
|
flllllll or flllllln. Some users who use the AFS file system might
|
|
not have initialized their entries on the nd.edu name server;
|
|
conversely, many community members who can receive mail via nd.edu
|
|
ignore their AFS userids.
|
|
|
|
Notre Dame also has many other central and departmental computer
|
|
systems which can send and receive e-mail. As more and more users
|
|
initialize their nameserver accounts there will be less need to
|
|
remember these specific local systems and userids. However, for the
|
|
time being, they are often the best addresses for some members
|
|
of the Notre Dame community.
|
|
|
|
All students are given accounts on darwin.cc.nd.edu, but not
|
|
all students use them. Usernames are of the form flllllll. In
|
|
case of name conflicts, numbers are added to the end to disambiguate.
|
|
|
|
Questions can be sent to info@nd.edu.

Univ. of Vermont:
|
|
There are two main computing organizations on campus:
|
|
UCS (University Computing Services) and
|
|
EMBA-CF (Division of Engineering, Mathematics, and Business
|
|
Administration, Computer Facility). As a general rule,
|
|
people with accounts at EMBA-CF do not bother to obtain accounts at
|
|
UCS. UVM's domain name is `uvm.edu', and sub-domains are not
|
|
generally used. Most of the UVM network has most TCP ports blocked
|
|
off, but one machine, emily.uvm.edu, can serve as a gateway for, for
|
|
example, the finger program, (i.e., finger
|
|
someone@somehost@emily.uvm.edu.)
|
|
|
|
UCS has three main machines: uvmvax.uvm.edu (UVMVAX.BITNET),
|
|
uvmvm.uvm.edu (UVMVM.BITNET), and UVMADMIN.BITNET. Accounts on UVMVAX
|
|
(a VMS system) are generally of the form Lastname_F; accounts on
|
|
UVMVM and UVMADMIN don't seem to follow any particular scheme, but
|
|
Lastname and LastnameF seem to be popular. Many UCS staff people use
|
|
their initials. UVMVAX supports unspecified finger only; UVMVM
|
|
doesn't support finger at all.
|
|
|
|
EMBA-CF supports computing for the departments of Math/Stat, Business
|
|
Administration, CS/EE, and Civil/Mechanical Engineering, as well as
|
|
the administration of the College of Engineering and Mathematics; all
|
|
students, faculty, and staff in the Division are entitled to an
|
|
account, although many students do not bother to get a
|
|
non-class account. Sometimes, other people may be given
|
|
accounts on EMBA-CF machines.
|
|
|
|
EMBA-CF has three separate mail-spool servers, and users are free
|
|
to forward their mail to whichever one they happen to prefer; these
|
|
machines are uvm-gen.uvm.edu, hal.uvm.edu, and trantor.uvm.edu.
|
|
uvm-gen is also known as just plain UVM.EDU, and most faculty and
|
|
staff with accounts at EMBA-CF have a alias of the form
|
|
Firstname{.M}.Lastname installed at uvm-gen. All other users, except
|
|
for class and staff accounts, are assigned by last name, with a
|
|
numeric suffix in case of collision. Staff accounts for work-study
|
|
employees are usually of the form operfml. Class accounts are of the
|
|
form ddNNNfml, where dd is the department
|
|
(cs,ce,me,ee,ma,st,ba) and NNN is the class number; in case of
|
|

There are two sub-domains: msg.uvm.edu belongs to Mach Systems Group,
|
|
a group of graduate students involved porting operating systems (most
|
|
notably, Mach 2.5 and 3.0) to local hardware; and med.uvm.edu belongs
|
|
to the UVM School of Medicine, which is not very well networked as
|
|
yet.

Univ. of Washington, Seattle: Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
|
|
CS Grads and Faculty: lastname@cs.washington.edu
|
|
Most folks are on carson.u.washington.edu or stein.u.washington.edu.
|
|
Usernames can be anything. Mail sent via u.washington.edu should
|
|
forward to the appropriate account.
|
|
CS students, grads, and faculty can generally be looked up by last
|
|
name at cs.washington.edu; if not, try june.cs.washington.edu for
|
|
grads and faculty, and wolf.cs.washington.edu for undergrads.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Waterloo, Ontario:
|
|
Userids are of of the form <initials>+<surname> (e.g. mbmulroney, ghwbush),
|
|
and may be any length (for most machines; some still restrict them to
|
|
8 characters. Mail servers send you back a list of possible userids
|
|
if the one you tried doesn't match any known user.
|
|
Math/CS undergraduates: undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca
|
|
CS graduate students: neumann.uwaterloo.ca
|
|
CS and Math Graduate Students: violet.uwaterloo.ca and jeeves.uwaterloo.ca

Univ. of Western Ontario, London, Ontario: Changed: Tue Mar 30 1993
|
|
Computing and Communications Services operates a campus directory
|
|
service as well as a campus E-mail forwarding service. This covers
|
|
all of the faculty and staff listed in the campus telephone directory
|
|
as well as many students. Registration is voluntary but for faculty
|
|
and staff is reasonably complete and accurate.
|
|
% whois -h whois.uwo.ca name
|
|
eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca smith
|
|
eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca j.smith
|
|
eg. whois -h whois.uwo.ca john.smith
|
|
The mail forwarding service works for common names as well:
|
|
% mail common-name@uwo.ca
|
|
eg. mail smith@uwo.ca
|
|
eg. mail j.smith@uwo.ca
|
|
eg. mail john.smith@uwo.ca
|
|
Mail will either be forwarded to the user with that common name, or
|
|
if the name is not unique, you will receive a returned message listing
|
|
all users with that common name.

Univ. of Wisconsin/Center-System: Created: Mon Sep 6 1993
|
|
A system of 13, two-year liberal arts "feeder" colleges to the 4-year
|
|
Universitys. There are about 7000 students.
|
|
Students do not have addresses; most faculty do.
|
|
Faculty: usually flllllll@uwcmail.uwc.edu
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Wisconsin/La Crosse:
|
|
username@uwlax.edu
|
|
Usernames are arbitrary. Try fingering by the lastname.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Wisconsin/Madison:
|
|
Phone book server (staff only): finger lname@wisc.edu
|
|
CS: cs.wisc.edu
|
|
Engineering: cae.wisc.edu
|
|
Undergrads: Class accounts based on first and last name,
|
|
@garfield.cs.wisc.edu.
|
|
For other departments, you can sometimes guess the hostname
|
|
from the department name. Thus: meteor.wisc.edu for
|
|
Meteorology, math.wisc.edu for Mathematics.
|
|
|
|
Univ. of Wisconsin - Milwaukee:
|

Many students - csd4.csd.uwm.edu, convex.csd.uwm.edu
|
|
EE ugrad and grad - ee.uwm.edu
|
|
CS grad - point.cs.uwm.edu
|
|
CS fac - blatz.cs.uwm.edu
|
|
Students taking Comp Sci Classes: miller.cs.uwm.edu
|
|
|
|
In fact if you finger cs.uwm.edu you get:
|
|
|
|
Computer Science users at UWM are normally on workstations or
|
|
other backbone computing machines. To locate a faculty member,
|
|
graduate student or undergraduate student, you can use the
|
|
finger program.
|
|
|
|
The finger program can help you locate a user who is known to the CS
|
|
machines at UWM. To locate a user do
|
|
|
|
finger person-X@cs.uwm.edu
|
|
|
|
Where X=F|f if the person is a CS faculty member
|
|
X=G|g if the person is a CS grad student
|
|
X=U|u if the person is a CS undergraduate student
|
|
X=E|e if the person is an Engineering student
|
|
X=O|o Other University machines(Just some of them!)
|
|
|
|
Undergraduates are for the most part on miller.cs.uwm.edu. Graduate
|
|
students are usually on cvax.cs.uwm.edu. To get a complete list of
|
|
cs-faculty, finger csfac@cs.uwm.edu.

Univ. of Wisconsin - River Falls:
|
|
uwrf.bitnet
|
|
|
|
University of Wyoming (Laramie, WY) Created: Mon Mar 22 1993
|
|
The main computer on which every student/faculty/ employee can have an
|
|
account on (if they wish) is CORRAL.UWYO.EDU (a vaxcluster made up
|
|
of OUTLAW.UWYO.EDU or POSSE.UWYO.EDU) The username is completely
|
|
unpredictable (totally at the choice of the user). Finger at
|
|
corral or posse.
|
|
The graduate Cosci students often have an account on RODEO.UWYO.EDU
|
|
with the same username as on CORRAL.
|
|
The engineering students all have accounts on DS1.UWYO.EDU.
|
|
Most incoming freshman these days will get an account on our Vax
|
|
(Corral) because it looks like the freshman orientation class
|
|
requires it.
|
|
|
|
Utah State University:
|
|
cc.usu.edu - This is the MAIN VAX. A Vax 6510 that is usually the
|
|
system that everyone uses for most purposes. Our
|
|
usenet news is on this computer as well as other
|
|
utilities. This is also the system that is a bitnet
|
|
node (USU). So mail can be sent to usu.bitnet as well.
|
|
mua.usu.edu - This is our Micro-VAX that is running ultrix. Because
|
|
this is the popular domain for TinyTALK and TinyFUGUE
|
|
programs, the active Gamers use this system.
|
|
|
|
You can finger both systems, the account names are given in a random
|
|
fashion that consists of a five letter code. The first two
|
|
letters usually denoting whether the user is a student or a
|
|
faculty member. SL___ account belong to students and FA___
|
|
accounts belong to faculty members. The easiest way to locate
|
|
a user is to send mail to OPERATOR@cc.usu.edu or, if your
|
|
system supports the bitnet SEND command, use SEND OPERATOR@USU
|
|
and ask them to look up the name for you.
|
|
|
|
Vanderbilt University:
|
|
Engineering faculty and grad students: @vuse.vanderbilt.edu
|
|
(most user IDs are the three initials)
|
|
|
|
Undergrads and other grad students: @ctrvax.vanderbilt.edu
|
|
Most user IDs are llllllfm (8 chars max). You can't finger
|
|
on this VAX cluster; try sending mail to
|
|
userserv@ctrvax.vanderbilt.edu; you should get a response
|
|
within a business day or so.
|
|
|
|
Vassar: Changed: Wed Mar 24 1993
|
|
Students: FFLastname@vaxsar.vassar.edu. (Formerly FMLLLLLLLLLL).
|
|
Every student is given a VAX account, but few actually activate them
|
|
(by asking for a password).
|
|
Faculty: Faculty must request an account in order to get it, but most
|
|
of those who have accounts use them. Recent faculty usernames are of
|
|
the same form as students; previously they were lastnames followed
|
|
by enough letters of the first name to ensure uniqueness. Their
|
|
accounts are also on vaxsar.vassar.edu.
|
|
Fingering with the username or the lastname will usually work.
|
|
|
|
Virginia Tech: Changed: Tue Jan 4 1994
|
|
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, normally just
|
|
called Virginia Tech.
|
|
As of June 7, 1993, try finger lastname@finger.vt.edu first. It
|
|
replaces the older SSImail system, and augments the stuff described
|
|
in the rest of this entry.
|
|
CS faculty/staff: lastname@cs.vt.edu
|
|
CS grad students: lastname@csgrad.cs.vt.edu
|
|
CS undergrads: try userid@csugrad.cs.vt.edu first
|
|
non-CS: To find CoSY users: CoSY users can only get mail from other
|
|
CoSY users; become one by telnetting to vtcosy.cns.vt.edu and
|
|
following directions. Find people by finger @vtcosy
|
|
Physics students: try LastnameFM@vtcc1.cc.vt.edu

Washington University, St. Louis MO: Changed: Thu Jul 1 1993
|
|
Arts&Sciences undergrads: fmllllll@pear.wustl.edu or @artsci.wustl.edu
|
|
Undergrad Engineers: All have accounts on cec1.wustl.edu and
|
|
cec2.wustl.edu (cec2.uucp). finger lastname@cec_userfs_u.wustl.edu.
|
|
Userids are the user's three initials followed by a single digit for
|
|
disambiguating name conflicts. If there is no name conflict, the
|
|
extra digit is a 1. Fingering from outside the university sometimes
|
|
works. Also, some computer science students have accounts on wucs1,
|
|
and anyone can have an account on maria. On these machines, the user
|
|
chooses his/her own login name to be enabled. Usernames for
|
|
engineering faculty are just their three initials.
|
|
|
|
Wayne State University, Detroit MI
|
|
All students in the University, regardless of their major or college
|
|
can have access to an account.
|
|
Engineering: ss0.eng.wayne.edu (or nova, or ece, or any solar planet,
|
|
e.g. sun, venus, ...)
|
|
CS: jupiter.cs.wayne.edu, zeus.cs.wayne.edu
|
|
These machines support finger. Most other students' accounts
|
|
are on wu.cc.wayne.edu; try 'finger partial-name@wu.cc.wayne.edu'
|
|
to find information about anyone with "partial-name" in their name.
|
|
|
|
Wellesley College (Wellesley, Massachusetts)
|
|
FLastname#@lucy.wellesley.edu, where F is first initial, and digit #
|
|
is used only to disambiguate (e.g. JSMITH1). Finger not accepted from
|
|
remote sites. Faculty names never get the #.
|
|
|
|
Wesleyan:
|
|
Accounts are on eagle.wesleyan.edu. The username is of the
|
|
form FLname, where F is the first initial and Lname is the
|
|
lastname of the individual.
|
|
|
|
West Chester University:
|
|
Users (at least undergraduates, if not others) are given
|
|
accounts on a machine whose name is the same as the first
|
|
letter of their last name. Usernames are of the form fllllll.
|
|
So John Doe would be jdoe%d%wcu@isn.wcupa.edu. Send mail
|
|
to postmaster@isn.wcupa.edu if you have questions.
|
|
|
|
West Point, the United States Military Academy
|
|
Host names are of the form usmaX.usma.edu, for X from 1 to 18.
|
|
Try 'finger lastname@host', starting with usma18 (since lower-numbered
|
|
machines tend to refuse a finger connection). Actual mailboxes for
|
|
cadets are of the form xYNNNNCC where x is the letter x, Y is last
|
|
digit of graduating year (e.g. 6 for 1996), NNNN is a student ID code,
|
|
and CC is company (letter-digit, e.g. D4).

Williams College: Changed: Mon Jan 24 1994
|
|
Students: Firstname.M.Lastname@williams.edu, possibly with _N (N a
|
|
number) to disambiguate.
|
|
Usernames *used to be* YYFML (YY = year, F = first initial, M = middle
|
|
initial, L = last initial); these can still be found by fingering
|
|
@bigbird.cc.williams.edu. You *must* finger one of these IDs to get
|
|
Finger information; fingering by names doesn't work.
|
|
Williams' postmaster will not give out user ids to outside requests.
|
|
|
|
Wright State University (Dayton, Ohio): Created: Mon Sep 6 1993

|
|
assigned by the university.
|
|
Faculty: lastname@xavier.xu.edu

email addresses, as well as their phone numbers. Finger
|
|
Finger@directory.yale.edu for further directions.
|
|
Grad CS, Undergrad CS: lastname-firstname@cs.yale.edu (yalecs.bitnet)
|
|
Undergrad Accounts (plus faculty & grad students in many non-CS
|
|
Graduate School depts.):
|
|
YALEVM: (about 10% of students): finger LLLFFFM@yalevm.ycc.yale.edu
|
|
(or LLLFFFM@yalevm.bitnet). Users can also request custom names.
|
|
Mail queries can go to consult@yalevm.bitnet or
|
|
postmaster@cs.yale.edu, as appropriate.
|
|
MINERVA: (about 85% of students): host minverva.cis.yale.edu.
|
|
Students choose login names, so there is no rule. Many use
|
|
<FFFFFFFL> or <FLLLLLLL> or <FFFFFFFF> or <LLLLLLLL>... try every
|
|
combination you can think of. If this doesn't work, the following
|
|
way to find the MINERVA login name, and then to use it when
|
|
fingering <@minerva.cis.yale.edu> should do: finger
|
|
<Lastname-Firstname@yale.edu> will give you (after one or two
|
|
trials) the MINERVA login name.

York University (Toronto, Ontario) Changed: Mon Feb 15 1993
|
|
Try ``finger name@yorku.ca'' using first name, last name and probable
|
|
userid. Also try ``whois -h horton.yorku.ca name'', also with first
|
|
and last names. The faculty and staff phone book is available on
|
|
gopher from gopher.yorku.ca and experimentally by ph from the same
|
|
machine.
|
|
About 1/3 of the faculty and staff have email, and perhaps 1/8 of the
|
|
students.
|
|
Faculty, Staff: userid@yorku.ca or userid@faculty.yorku.ca
|
|
Userids are often first-initial last-name, but do vary.
|
|
Student userids do not follow a simple pattern. Students with email
|
|
are on ariel,yorku.ca (computer science), glade.yorku.ca (cs and
|
|
part-time students), writer.yorku.ca (computer aided writing centre)
|
|
and calumet.yorku.ca. Most of these clusters are fingerable.
|
|
Questions can be sent to postmaster@yorku.ca; they're not too useful
|
|
when searching for students, as there is no student phonebook.
|
|
However ``whois -h horton.yorku.ca name'' discovers many student
|
|
adresses.
