I’d never even heard of Telnet before today, however after spending some time playing around it does seem familiar to the library data base I used when I was in high school.
Typing in the Deakin address was the easy part, from there I was lost. Thank goodness for the ? Help menu, after going through this I realised I had to have a ‘o’ before the address to tell the system what to do, suddenly I was in the system!!
From there it was pretty straight forward, each page had the prompts telling you want could be done.
When I opened up my email address and the email from Deakin was sitting there, it was like I’d won the lottery, it might be one tiny step, but it’s a step all the same!!
Although simple Telnet did the job of finding the book, I did find myself always going for my mouse however, I’m no longer used to a keyboard only environment.
FTP: Again something I’d never heard of before, however again it was pretty easy to understand the basics of it. I logged on to the Curtin site without a problem and found the readme.txt file without too much hassle and found the missing word, capitalisation.
Not sure what I can use FTP for, but I’m sure I’ll find out soon!

Not cpmpletly sure what this figures mean, so I will re read the sites on traceroutes and pings to try and solve the mystery.
