Remote File Access Services
The term "anonymous FTP" means that any user on the Internet can access a file server via FTP using the log-in name "anonymous" with a password of "guest," or by supplying their e-mail address as the password. ESnet provides anonymous FTP access to its file server, the ESnet Information Server.
Anonymous DECnet Phase IV Copy
DECnet Phase IV is one of the three network protocols supported on the ESnet backbone. To provide easy and convenient to the users of the DECnet Phase IV suite within the ESnet community, anonymous DECnet Phase IV Copy access has been provided to the information stored on the ESnet Information Server. This provides access similar to the anonymous FTP access described above.
E-mail-Based File Access
If an ESnet user happens to be in an environment where none of the remote file access mechanisms mentioned above are available, they may still access data o the ESnet Information Server via electronic mail.
