<para>While FreeBSD does not provide open access to any |
11000 |
of their servers, others do provide open access Unix |
11001 |
systems. The charge varies and limited services may |
11002 |
be available.</para> |

<para><ulink URL="http://www.arbornet.org">Arbornet, Inc</ulink>, |
11005 |
also known as M-Net, has been providing open access to Unix |
11006 |
systems since 1983. Starting on an Altos running System III, |
11007 |
the site switched to BSD/OS in 1991. In June of 2000, the |
11008 |
site switched again to FreeBSD and is currently running |
11009 |
4.1.1-STABLE. M-Net can be accessed via telnet and SSH and |
11010 |
provides basic access to the entire FreeBSD software suite. |
11011 |
However, network access is limited to members and patrons who |
11012 |
donate to the system, which is run as a non-proft |
11013 |
organization. M-Net also provides an bulletin board system |
11014 |
and interactive chat.</para> |

<para><ulink URL="http://www.grex.org">Grex</ulink> provides |
11017 |
a site very similar to M-Net including the same bulletin board |
11018 |
and interactive chat software. However, the machine is a |
11019 |
Sun 4M and is running SunOS 4.1.4.</para> |
