I was going to put a link to this, but I can't get anything (lynx, www
linemode, telnet to info.cern.ch, or even gopher/ftp gateways) to 
be able to browse 'ftp.cu.nih.gov'.

Even linking directly to one of the files is a bit problematic.
My copy of the linemode browser seems to retrieve it in binary
(EBCDIC?) although info.cern.ch gets the first part OK in ascii.



The Center for Electronic Records of the U.S. National Archives has
updated the FTP-able file containing the Center's "Title List: A
Preliminary and Partial Listing of the Data Files in the National
Archives and Records Administration" (TITLE.LIST.SEP2893).  The FTP
directory can be accessed by FTPing to FTP.CU.NIH.GOV
(128.231.64.7).  Log on as an anonymous user; press enter (or enter
your user name or 'guest') at password prompt.  The directory in
which this information is stored is NARA_ELECTRONIC (CD
NARA_ELECTRONIC); it contains six files.  Use the FTP GET command to
retrieve copies of the files, as in GET TITLE.LIST.SEP2893.
