Internet access services

This section covers access; provider services are covered below.

Dialup menu--email & news

The most basic access service provides a dialup connection that can be used with a terminal emulator and affords access to Internet email and news services through a menu interface.

Dialup menu--full internet access

If email and news are not enough to slake your thirst for the Internet then you can have ``full'' internet access with this service. Service includes basic access, defined above, plus FTP, telnet, lynx and Internet Relay Chat (IRC).

Dialup UNIX shell prompt

For the more intrepid Infonaut ARI provides a UNIX shell prompt level of service that gives access to the entire UNIX environment.

Dialup serial IP (SLIP/PPP)

For full Internet directly from your own machine ARI offers serial IP connections over dialup lines at speeds up to 28.8K baud (V.fast modem speed) using PPP or SLIP. This services provides access to the entire range of facilities on the Internet without having an intervening host: your machine becomes an Internet node.

UUCP connection

UUCP provides a dialup connection for other UNIX hosts as well as PC that are capable of running the UUCP protocol. This service is useful for organizations who already have UNIX systems and would like to provide Internet email and limited file transfer capabilities to their users.

1-800 dialup connections

ARI provides 1-800 numbers that can be used in combination with any of the dial-up services offered. This service is extremely convenient for people on the road and the rates are competitive.

Email to Pager connections

A novel feature that can be added to the ARI Internet suite of services is the ability for your pager to be set off when an email arrives for you. Either a digital notification or an alpha message (for those pagers that accept alpha) constructed from the subject line of the email can be sent.

Provider services

In addition to providing access to the Internet for individuals and organizations Application Resources provides services to organizations needing a presence on the net. These include:

FTP servers

ARI will install and maintain a File Transfer (FTP) server so that clients, customers or other interested Internet users can get files provided by your organization. Typical file types might include demonstration programs, on-line documentation, bug fixes, white papers and so on. Internet users can also be provided with facilities to drop off files on the server. Traces and dumps for diagnostic purposes are one kind of file that could be deposited by a customer.

Web servers

The World Wide Web is much-touted integration of the Internet into a single seamless hypertext link web of servers. ARI provides our clients a window onto the Web. Services provided include setup and maintenance of a web server, creation of information pages using Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), working with your advertizing and public relations firms to create logos, incorporate graphics and in general to create an Internet identity for your organization.

Email infobots

In all stages of the sales cycle there are back and forth exchanges (e.g., data sheets, request for ordering information, etc.) that often can be automated using an infobot--an automated email response system that looks at an incoming request and automatically sends a response to the initiator, based on keywords in the incoming email message, that can significantly shorten the process of closing sales.

Mailing list servers

ARI runs a listserv that acts a focal point for client electronic mailing lists. Software resident on our server provides maintenance for subscriber lists, remailing of submitted email and archiving of historical activity.
