Vazeni pratele,
dovolte, abych Vam vsem popral vse nejlepsi v novem roce. Omicron podobne
jako loni pokracuje ve sve cinnosti vcetne vydavani obcasniku. Jak vsichni vite,
havarie archivniho disku nam znemoznila udrzovat archiv e-konference NET.
Cekame na prichod nove techniky, ktera by mela dovolit resit tento problem
perspektivnim zpusobem.
Dnesni obcasnik venujeme privitani kolegu z MH CR do ceskych
pocitacovych siti. Jak je videt, nebyt pozornosti zvidavych ucastniku lednovych
kurzu OMICRON, probehla by tato udalost bez povsimnuti. Chceme to prvni
casti obcasniku napravit a vyuzit teto prilezitosti k zopakovani nekterych
metod hledani v databazich a poukazat na pripadne nepresnosti v udajich na
cesnetovskych gopherech. V druhe casti obcasniku chceme pripomenout smutnou
zpravu o auto-havarii Brendana Kehoea, autora "Zen and the Art of the
Internet" a rozsirit i u nas informaci o zrizeni specialnich serveru typu
finger, ktere poskytuji aktualni informace o Kehoeove zdravotnim stavu. Pro ty,
kteri nemaji moznost si spustit program finger, uvadime zpusob, jak program
finger ovladat e-dopisem.

1. POCITAC MINISTERSTVA HOSPODARSTVI CR V SITI EARN
---------------------------------------------------
Na "csearn.bitnet" (earn.cvut.cz) existuje databaze "bitearn" (viz
prikaz "database list" pro listserver), jejimz jednim z klicovych slov je
slovo "country". Posleme na adresu "listserv at csearn.bitnet"
("listserv at earn.cvut.cz") dopis, ktery specifikuje vyhledani zaznamu z databaze
pro honoty klicoveho slova "country=cz" nebo "country=cs". Tedy:
---------
// job
database search dd=rules
//rules dd *
search * in bitearn where country=cz or country=cs
index
print

Jako vystup dostaneme e-dopis,

z nehoz vyplyva, ze CSPGME11.bitnet byl pripojen do EARNu 22 rijna 1993
pres CSPGUK11.bitnet. Od toho data mame zapojen do evropske akademicke site
prvy cesky statni organ. Bohuzel z vyse uvedeneho zaznamu nevyplyva, ze
ma plnou internetovskou konektivitu a ze je prvkem site CESNET. Presto je mozne
panum Josefu Madlovi (c1vc03 at cspgme11.bitnet) a Frantisku Snajdrovi
(1snajdr at cspgme11) poslat e-mailem blahoprani a pozdrav. Verime, ze tento
vladni pocitac brzy zacne slouzit take informacnim potrebam verejnosti, tak
jak je to ve vyspelych zemich zvykem.
Pokud byste hledali ceske earnovske uzly ve waisovske databazi "bitearn", tak
tam nic zajimaveho nenajdete. Byla totiz aktualizovana naposled v roce
1992. Jina situace je na ceskych gopherech. Tak napr. "gopher.cvut.cz" uvadi

2. FINGER VIA MAIL
------------------
Jak jsme jiz v uvodu rekli, zridili spolupracovnici Brendana Kehoea
servery
finger brendan-news at cygnus.com
finger brendan-news at eff.org
prinasejici zpravy o aktualni zdravotnim stavu Kehoea. Prikaz finger je take
mozne provest prostednictvim mailserveru "b.liddicott at ic.ac.uk". Posleme-li
tomuto mailserveru prazdny e-dopis se radkem "Subject:#help", dostaneme
napovedu, z ktere mimo jine vyplyva, ze finger lze aktivizovat prazdnym
dopisem s radkem "Subject:#finger e-adresa". Mailserver umi jeste nekolik
jinych veci, mezi nimi i spoustet program "ping" ci plnit funkci
"echo" serveru. Tedy na e-dopis mailserveru s radkem
"Subject:#finger brendan-news at eff.org"
jsem dostal 10. 1. 1994 tuto odpoved:

Benhaha's Happy Mail Daemon
Syntax: #finger <user>@<machine name>
The Daemon received a subject line containing the following:
#finger brendan-news at eff.org
The Daemon attempted to finger the following user:
brendan-news at eff.org
Which generated the following output:

Plan: (last modified Fri 7-Jan-94 2:31PM)
Brendan Kehoe, Cu Digest archivist at ftp.eff.org, Cygnus Support
Engineer and author of ZEN AND THE ART OF THE INTERNET, was
critically injured in an automobile accident in Pennsylvania on
Friday, 31 December.The full extent of his injuries cannot be
assesed for another two weeks or so, according to his doctors.
Brendan was moved out of the ICU Monday Jan. 3, and is improving
rapidly.
Jeffrey Osier reports:
1/6/94
I was a bit sick today myself, so I didn't go see him until
tonight; didn't want to give him whatever I've got as well,
but the nurse said it was okay when I got there with his
mom, Alice. We sat with him for a while, talking, and even
had a conversation of sorts. He repeated several times that
he wants to go home. I asked him, "Do you know why you're
here?" and he said "I don't care." Luckily, he doesn't have
enough of an attention span yet to get really depressed or
anything; he'll fall asleep midsentence, and forget that his
head itches while his hand is on its way to scratch it, but
he is making amazing progress. His aphasia is becoming more
apparent; when he gets agitated he says numbers instead of
words, sometimes, and in sentences he'll come up with
strange words that don't quite mean what he thinks they
mean. Sometimes he'll think he's talking, but there will be
no physical corollary, and sometimes he'll just say things
and not realize he's talking. We don't know at this point
how much of the aphasia is permanent and how much will
disappear when he really becomes lucid and conscious;
there's really no way of knowing at this point.
We've found his glasses, and will be reframing them tomorrow
and letting him use them to see if it improves his
understanding of his surroundings, and if maybe he can read.
He may be able to read better than listen, or the other way
around; we really won't know for a while.
Thanks again to everyone who's read this and prayed.
It helps more than you realize. We'll get him back.
-- Jefro
The CuD folks are collating email messages for Brendan:
instructions are: We urge readers to send him a card. We
will be collecting the notes that come in wishing him well
via e-mail, and send them to him in about two weeks. So, if
you want to send him an E-note, send it to us:
(tk0jut2 at mvs.cso.niu.edu) with the subject header: TO BRENDAN
(thanks to the CUD folks and Brendans friends and coworkers at
Cygnus for portions of this text)
(dhb940107)
Submissions to the Computer Underground Digest archives are still
welcome and encouraged; please write cudarch at eff.org.
If this is not what you wanted to do, please mail Ben Liddicott
at b.liddicott at ic.ac.uk without #finger in the subject line.
To receive the help file, send mail with #help in the subject line.
You may receive mail about other free services. It's not very
likely though.
