Read the misc FAQ for information about the FAQs themselves. Each FAQ is

newsgroups (whose purpose is to store FAQs) twice per month. If you
can't find one of the FAQs with your news program, you can get it from

   ftp://viz.tamu.edu/pub/sgi/faq/
   ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/

(rtfm.mit.edu is home to many other FAQs and informational documents,
and is a good place to look if you can't find an answer here.) The FAQs
are on the World Wide Web at

   http://www-viz.tamu.edu/~sgi-faq/

If you can't use FTP or WWW, send mail to [email protected] with
the word 'help' on a line by itself in the text, and it will send you a
document describing how to get files from rtfm.mit.edu by mail. Send the
command 'send usenet/news.answers/sgi/faq/misc' to get the SGI misc FAQ,
and similarly for the other FAQs. Send the command 'send
usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email' to get the
"Accessing the Internet by E-Mail FAQ".

You may distribute the SGI FAQs freely and we encourage you to do so.
However, you must keep them intact, including headers and this notice,
and you must not charge for or profit from them. Contact us for other
arrangements. We can't be responsible for copies of the SGI FAQs at
sites which we do not control, and copies published on paper or CD-ROM

 If you're reading this on Usenet, the latest edition of the SGI FAQs
 has just been reposted to comp.sys.sgi.misc, comp.answers and
 news.answers. (Because the comp.sys.sgi.* groups are gatewayed to
 mailing lists which don't deal with crossposts, we only post the SGI
 FAQs to one of them.) If you're reading this somewhere else, the
 other FAQs should be nearby. If they aren't, the introduction
 describes several places where you can find them.
