BRL now on the Net

       We would like to announce that the U.S. Army Ballistic
Research Lab is now connected to USENET.  Our sitename will
be "bmd70" and we will connect to Duke.

       We are currently running the MMDF mail system developed
at the University of Delaware (UDel).  In the future we will be
serving as a redistribution point for several other sites at
BRL and in the Baltimore area.  Mail intended to be sent through
our site to another BRL connected site should addressed to:
               "...!duke!bmd70!person@host"
where "host" is the name of a site known to the bmd70.  Note that
we will not accept addresses of the form "host!person".  You will
have to use the ARPAnet style "@" notation to reach other hosts
connected to the "bmd70".

       Currently the only other site connected to "bmd70" is "brl"
(not including Duke).  As some of you may recognize, this is one
of the ARPAnet sites.  Unfortunately we cannot allow any gateway
activity and any attempt to gateway will cause your letter to be
sent to the system managers and not forwarded.  Sorry but we have
to live by the rules.

Our Shop:
       We are running a V7 compatible (highly modified) V6 kernel
known as BRLNET/JHU Unix.  We have 2 (soon 3) 11/70's, 3 11/34's,
and a Cyber 173/7600 combo.  Our interests include Local Area
Networking, Multi-CPU File-system Sharing, Solids Modelling/Editing,
UNIX performance mods, Office Automation, and Porting UNIX.

       We would greatly like to here from others with similiar
interests.  I will be glad to field questions/comments and direct
them to appropriate people.
                               Networks Forever,
                                       Doug Kingston
