From: Oscar van Vlijmen:
An even more useful suggestion would be to place the WWW.htm file in the directory ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/
From Paul Eggert: I think this is a good idea. Better yet, could it be made available via http at NIH? If not, then I'll volunteer to maintain a copy at http://www.twinsun.com/tz/WWW.htm
Reply from Oscar van Vlijmen: Let's talk about modern desktop browsers like the Windows and Macintosh versions of Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer. Those browsers have a built-in FTP-client. As soon as they encounter a xxx.htm or xxx.html file on a FTP-served site, they display the contents in a HTML-window. I do not know how the Unix browsers react, but it is possible that it is not necessary to serve the WWW.htm tz-page through a HTTP-port of the NIH-server. It is however a very good idea to maintain an up to date mirror of this page, for instance at twinsun.com.
