                        TELNET ACCESS to W3

You can new telnet to our information server. 


                Telnet to:      info.cern.ch
                User name:      www
                (no password)

You will be presented with the home page which is used at CERN on the
central machines. From there, you can follow links whatever documents  
and indexes we know about at CERN or elsewhere in the world of online  
information. You will be using the line mode brower, which assumes  
nothing about your terminal capabilities.

This trial service is provided for those who want to try out the  
software, or who need information and are away from home. If you use  
this service frequently, it is much more efficient and faster for you  
to install the browser locally.

You can of course get help, including installation instructions, by  
following the "Help" link from the home page.
