SPECIAL NOTE:
    as of NNR S_1.3.2 the principal version of RXSOCKET will be V2.  i
    have hooks into NNR to support REXTCPIP which could easily be
    modified if there were a need to adapt RXSOCKET V1.  please let me
    know if you have a situation where migration to RXSOCKET V2 is
    impossible and i'll generate the necessary updates.
 
    as of NNR *_1.3.3 INN servers will be recognized. if the INN
    server is INN 1.4 or later XOVER will be used.
 
    as of NNR *_1.3.4 i will be operating from our washington site
    and the nnrprod@mbvm.mitre.org address has been decomishioned.
    please use campbell@mitre.org for all correspondence.

notice that the pre-packaged files no longer contain any of the
assembler code (RXSOCKET or REXTCPIP).
 
if you need RXSOCKET:
   if on BITNET:
     TELL LISTSERV at CUNYVM get rxsocket package
   if on Internet (mail only):
     send mail to
       "listserv@cunyvm.cuny.edu"
     the body of the message should contain 1 line
       "get rxsocket vmarc ( f=uue"
     (you will need the uuencode and vmarc to unpack the mail file)
 
if you need REXTCPIP:
     i no longer know where this package may be obtained. drop me a
     line if you think you need it.
 
use the command "gnnrx" to generate the rxsocket version and
"gnnrt" for the rextcpip version from source.vers130 and
updates.vers134.
