The next few messages contain a summary
of the various numbers I have picked up
off several hacker's  B.B.S.  sections.
Most  of them should still be valid. If
anyone has any luck  with  them  please
swap  info  on  this  board. I can give
further info on  some  but  that  would
spoil your fun!!
      The  information  in this file is
to help all the people who have a modem
and have not  yet  experienced  playing
MUD. Firstly, there is no point calling
Essex  outside MUD hours, because there
is  not  a  lot  you  can  do  on   the
computer, and it angers the authorities
at Essex University. That will probably
ban  MUD  for  a few weeks. The offical
hours for MUD are :-
0200-0600 Weekdays
2200-0600 Sat & Sun, & Bank Holidays.
      If you have a  PSS  NUI,  calling
MUD is easy. All you have to do is call
your local PSS exchange and then log on
with   your  NUI.  The  NUA  for  Essex
University is A2206411411. Here are the
phone  numbers  of  some  of  the   PSS
exchanges in the London area :-
1200/75 baud   : 407 8344 and 928 3399.
300/300 baud   : 825 9421 and 928 9111
               : 0753 6141.
1200/1200 baud : 928 2333 and 928 1737.
The  other  way to call Essex is to use
JANET which can be found on :-
1200/75 baud   : 831 6181
300/300 baud   : 831 6171
      Once  connected  to  Janet,  type
CALL  A49600000 (five  0's)  which will
connect you to Essex. If it  says  CALL
CONNECTED  and  then  some  numbers and
then drops the line that  means  either
all  the  lines to Essex are engaged or
something has gone wrong at Essex.  All
you  can  do  is try calling again. The
following intructions apply both to PSS
and JANET. Once you  are  connected  to
Essex type the following :
SET HOST 1
LOGIN 2653,2653
At  the  password  prompt  GUESTS  (not
GUESS).
      If you call Essex outside  hours,
or  MUD is not running it will say "Ppn
not valid this time of day"  and  throw
you  off.  Once  you  have  entered the
password you can start playing MUD.  RU
MUD  (and you are in. You can also type
RU ROCK or  RU  VALLEY,  other  smaller
versions  of MUD.) Once you are playing
mud you can type HELP,  INFO,  COMMANDS
for instructions on how to play MUD and
a  list  of  the  available commands. I
have tested the 300  baud  numbers  but
have  not  been  able to try any of the
1200/75  or  1200/1200  baud   numbers,
because  I  only have a 300 baud modem,
so there may be inaccuracies  in  them.
If you have any problems concering MUD,
please  do  not hesitate to contact me,
Paul Jones, on this board  (the  London
Underground)  and  I  will  try to help
you.
      If you know of a number for Janet
in other parts of the country  why  not
share  it with all of us and leave me a
message.
Bye,
Paul Jones
P.S. Recently there seems to have  been
a  change  at Essex. The mud hours seem
to now be 0200-0600, 7 days a week.
