Hello Bob. 30 Jun 03 16:37, you wrote to me: BJ>> I need to track down a number of the archive packages... I have BJ>> the info zip stuff properly installed, but still need most of the BJ>> others.

Why I said to try debian.org, is that I have a 7 CD set here Debian 3.0r0 and some are not on the CD's, but are on the debian site. BJ> But, I have enough to run with for testing at the moment....
