Example commands: rn, "control-G" skips to next section; nn, "G%" presents as a digest. Sections may also be located by searching for the desired section number string (e.g. "-1-") from the list above. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: PDIAL -1- Subject: Summary: Providers With Wide Area Access PDN delphi, holonet, michnet, portal, psi-gds, psilink, well, world 800 class, cns, crl, csn, dial-n-cerf-usa, jvnc, OARnet "PDN" means the provider is accessible through a public data network (check the listings below for which network); note that many PDNs listed offer access outside North America as well as within North America. Check with the provider or the PDN for more details. "800" means the provider is accessible via a "toll-free" US phone number. The phone company will not charge for the call, but the service provider will add a surcharge to cover the cost of the 800 service. This may be more expensive than other long-distance options. - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -2- Subject: Summary: Area Codes for US/Canada Dialins If you are not local to any of these providers, it's still likely you are able to access those providers available through a public data network (PDN). Check the section above for providers with wide area access. 201 jvnc-tiger 202 express, grebyn 203 jvnc-tiger 206 eskimo, halcyon, netcom, nwnexus 212 mindvox, panix 213 dial-n-cerf, netcom 214 metronet 215 jvnc-tiger, PREPnet 216 OARnet, wariat 301 express, grebyn 303 cns, csn 310 dial-n-cerf, netcom 312 ddsw1 313 michnet, MSen 401 anomaly, ids, jvnc-tiger 408 a2i, netcom, portal 410 express 412 PREPnet, telerama 415 crl, dial-n-cerf, netcom, portal, well 419 OARnet 503 netcom 508 anomaly, nearnet 510 dial-n-cerf, holonet, netcom 513 OARnet 514 CAM.ORG 516 jvnc-tiger 517 michnet 603 nearnet 609 jvnc-tiger 614 OARnet 616 michnet 617 delphi, nearnet, world 619 cyber, dial-n-cerf, netcom 703 express, grebyn 704 rock-concert 707 crl 708 ddsw1 713 sugar 714 dial-n-cerf 717 PREPnet 718 mindvox, panix 719 cns, csn, oldcolo 814 PREPnet 815 ddsw1 818 dial-n-cerf, netcom 906 michnet 908 jvnc-tiger 916 netcom 919 rock-concert These are area codes local to the dialups, although some prefixes in the area codes listed may not be local to the dialups. Check your phone book or with your phone company. Most providers listed here are also accessible by packet-switched data services such as PC Pursuit ($30/month for 30 hours off-peak 2400 bps access -- call 800-736-1130 for more information), traditional long distance services, and of course telnet. - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -3- Subject: Summary: Phone Prefixes for International Dialins If you are not local to any of these providers, there is still a chance you are able to access those providers available through a public data network (PDN). Check the section above for providers with wide area access, and send email to them to ask about availability. +61 2 connect.com.au +61 3 connect.com.au +44 (0)81 ibmpcug - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -4- Subject: What *Is* The Internet? The Internet is a global cooperative network of university, corporate, government, and private computers, all communicating with each other by means of something called TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). Computers directly on the Internet can exchange data quickly and easily with any other computer on the Internet to download files, send email, provide remote logins, etc. Users can download files from publicly accessible archive sites ("anonymous FTP"); login into remote computers (telnet or rlogin); chat in real-time with other users around the world (Internet Relay Chat); or use the newest information retrieval tools to find a staggering variety of information (Wide Area Information Servers, Gopher, World Wide Web). Computers directly on the Internet also exchange email directly and very quickly; email is usually delivered in seconds between Internet sites. Sometimes the Internet is confused with other related networks or types of networking. First, there are other ways to be "connected to the Internet" without being directly connected as a TCP/IP node. Some computers connect via UUCP or other means at regular intervals to an Internet site to exchange email and USENET newsgroups, for instance. Such a site can provide email (though not as quickly as a directly connected systems) and USENET access, but not Internet downloads, remote logins, etc. "email" (or "Internet email", "netmail") can be exchanged with a wide variety of systems connected directly and indirectly to the Internet. The email may travel solely over the Internet, or it may traverse other networks and systems. "USENET" is the collection of computers all over the world that exchange USENET news -- thousands of "newsgroups" (like forums, or echos) on a wide range of topics. The newsgroup articles are distributed all over the world to USENET sites that wish to carry them (sometimes over the Internet, sometimes not), where people read and respond to them. The "NSFNET" is one of the backbones of the Internet in the US. It is funded by the NSF, which restricts traffic over the NSFNET to "open research and education in and among US research and instructional institutions, plus research arms of for-profit firms when engaged in open scholarly communication and research." Your Internet provider can give you more details about acceptable use, and alternatives should you need to use the Internet in other ways. - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -5- Subject: What The PDIAL Is This is a list of Internet service providers offering public access dialins and outgoing Internet access (ftp, telnet, etc.). Most of them provide email and USENET news and other services as well. If one of these systems is not accessible to you and you need email or USENET access, but *don't* need ftp or telnet, you have many more public access systems from which to choose. Public access systems without ftp or telnet are *not* listed in this list, however. See the nixpub (alt.bbs, comp.misc) list and other BBS lists. Some of these providers offer time-shared access to a shell or BBS program on a computer connected directly to the Internet, through which you can FTP or telnet to other systems on the Internet. Usually other services are provided as well. Generally, you need only a modem and terminal or terminal emulator to access these systems. Check for "shell", "bbs", or "menu" on the "services" line. Other providers connect you directly to the Internet via SLIP or PPP when you dial in. For these you need a computer system capable of running the software to interface with the Internet, e.g., a Unix machine, PC, or Mac. Check for "SLIP", or "PPP" on the services line. While I have included all sites for which I have complete information, this list is surely incomplete. Please send any additions or corrections to "kaminski@netcom.com". - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -6- Subject: List of Providers Fees are for personal dialup accounts with outgoing Internet access; most sites have other classes of service with other rate structures as well. Most support email and netnews along with the listed services. "Long distance: provided by user" means you need to use services such as PC Pursuit, direct dial long distance or other long distance services. << a2i >> name ----------> a2i communications dialup --------> 408-293-9010 (v.32, v.32 bis) or 408-293-9020 (PEP) 'guest' area codes ----> 408 local access --> CA: Campbell, Los Altos, Los Gatos, Moutain View, San Jose, Santa Clara, Saratoga, Sunnyvale long distance -> provided by user services ------> shell, ftp, telnet, feeds fees ----------> $20/month or $45/3 months or $72/6 months email ---------> info@rahul.net voice ---------> n/a ftp more info -> ftp.rahul.net:/pub/BLURB << anomaly >> name ----------> Anomaly - Rhode Island's Gateway To The Internet dialup --------> 401-331-3706 (v.32) or 401-455-0347 (PEP) area codes ----> 401, 508 local access --> RI: Providence/Seekonk Zone long distance -> provided by user services ------> shell, ftp, telnet, SLIP fees ----------> Commercial: $125/6 months or $200/year;

Generally, you can contact the site you're calling for help, too. IMPORTANT NOTE: Unless noted otherwise, set your modem to 7E1 (7 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit) when dialing to look up access numbers by modem as instructed below. BT Tymnet - --------- For information and local access numbers, call 800-937-2862 (voice) or 215-666-1770 (voice). To look up access numbers by modem, dial a local access number, hit and 'a', and enter "information" at the "please log in:" prompt. Compuserve Packet Network - ------------------------- You do NOT have to be a Compuserve member to use the CPN to dial other services. For information and local access numbers, call 800-848-8199 (voice). To look up access numbers by modem, dial a local access number, hit and enter "PHONES" at the "Host Name:" prompt. PC Pursuit (SprintNet) - ---------------------- PC Pursuit may be used to call a modem in any of 44 major metro areas in the US from local access numbers around the country. As such, it can be used to access most of the providers listed in the PDIAL (those with no other PDN access or even those which are accessible by other PDNs). For information and registration, call 800-736-1130 (voice) or 800-877-2006 (data). More information is also available on the PC Pursuit support BBS (see below). To look up access numbers by modem, dial 800-546-1000, hit at 1200 baud or '@' at 2400 baud. Enter "MAIL" at the "@" prompt, then "PHONES" at the "USER NAME:" prompt, and "PHONES" at the "PASSWORD:" prompt. The PC Pursuit support BBS provides a great deal of information about PC Pursuit, including rates, terms and conditions, outdial numbers, etc. To access the PC Pursuit support BBS, dial a local access number and hit at 1200 baud or '@' at 2400 baud. Change modem parameters to 8N1, and enter "C PURSUIT" at the "@" prompt. PSINet - ------ For information, call 800-82PSI82 (voice) or 703-620-6651 (voice), or send email to "all-info@psi.com". For a list of local access numbers send email to "numbers-info@psi.com". - ------------------------------ From: PDIAL -9- Subject: Copyright and Distribution Of The PDIAL; Other Notices This Document Copyright 1992-1993 Peter Kaminski.

Although some of these providers can help with international connections, Chapter 6 contains more information about many non-U.S. networks and whom to contact for more information about gaining access to them. This Chapter first lists national providers of network connections, then lists dialup providers, then lists the providers by state. The information contained here was current as of the publication of this document, and contains information as complete and accurate as we were able to find. We would appreciate corrections and additions to this chapter. They can be sent online to nisc@nisc.sri.com or in hardcopy to SRI International at the address in the Overview. Format Each Provider is listed in the following format: Provider name Contact name (if any) Phone number Internet e-mail address Services: Those items in italics are listed without an identifier pre-pended (e.g. CERFnet rather than Provider name: CERFnet). The Services item is used to indicate the general type of service a provider offers. It will usually contain either: - Network connections - Dialup e-mail - Dialup IP One provider may offer any or all of these services. These types of access methods are each described in Chapter 2. Sometimes other services may be noted as well. For further details about any service, contact the access provider. This Chapter lists only phone numbers and electronic mail addresses. Complete postal addresses can be found in the alphabetical access provider listing contained in Appendix II. Important: Providers often offer services in addition to those noted! This book is concerned mainly with highlighting types of Internet access. Most often, providers offer a range of value-added services in addition to initial access options. For example, most providers also offer access to USENET news. If a provider is in your area, but seems from this list not to offer the service you desire, definitely contact them to ascertain their current range of services. Providers expand services often, and it is possible that we were unaware of a service. Many access providers in the US began with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF) with the mission of connecting research and education sites to the NSFNET backbone or with funding from state agencies to fulfill a similar purpose. Some providers retain this as their primary goal and do not provide access to commercial sites. Other such providers have expanded their missions to include more commercial services, so now serve a wider community. All providers charge fees for their services, which has helped blur the distinction between "commercial" and "research" providers. With a few exceptions, it is generally true that any organization may join any network as long as it agrees to abide by that network's Acceptable Use Policy. However, it may be the case that a provider listed in this Chapter as serving a particular area may have some restrictions regarding the type of community it wishes to serve. Note: Access For Individuals Individuals usually access the Internet via some dialup means. Therefore, if you are looking for access for yourself, start with the section listing Providers Of Dialup Services, but also check listings under your state for other providers that may offer dialup services. 4.1. National Providers of Network Connections This section lists providers that offer network connections throughout the United States. Network connections means that they will coordinate with you establish a dedicated connection between your host or your local area network to the Internet. In most cases, these providers are not repeated in Section 4.3, Providers By State. When shopping for an access provider in the United States, therefore, using this section in tandem with the Providers By State section will give you the maximum information from which to make your selection.

Providers of Dialup Services This section lists providers that offer dialup connections. This list includes only national dialup access providers and providers that specialize in dialup e-mail services for specific geographic areas. Those providers that offer both network connections and dialup access to a specific region are listed in Section 4.3 rather than here. This is only for the sake of simplicity. This section is provided mainly for easy reference by individuals seeking dialup access to the Internet. If you are such a person, also look in the section that lists providers by area to see if the mid-level or regional network in your area also provides dialup services. Even though some providers seem to serve smaller, perhaps municipal areas, their services can be accessed via a long distance phone call, or sometimes via a public data network. It is worth contacting them to see how you might use their services. All of these providers are listed elsewhere in this chapter as well as here. Many national access providers also offer dialup services, so they are listed here and in the previous section. Those dialup e-mail providers that serve specific areas are listed again in Section 4.3 under the state they serve. Although this section emphasizes dialup access, it is important to recall that most of these providers offer other services as well. If no Area Served information is listed for the dialup providers, they serve all of the US and probably provide international dialup connections as well. Contact the provider directly for more information. a2i communications info@rahul.net Area Served: San Jose, CA (408 area code) Services: Dialup e-mail, SunOS software development environment.

Many providers serve more than one state, so are listed more than once. Dialup e-mail providers are listed again here for the areas they serve. National access providers are not listed here; see Section 4.1 for more information. It is a good idea to contact both national providers and more regional providers when considering an Internet connection in order to have enough information to make the best selection.
