The American Internet Chess Server (ICS) can usually be found on one
of the machines listed below.  Try them in the order listed.  There
will usually be a primary server running on one of the sites and
backup servers on one or more of the others.  If you connect to a site
and find very few people logged in, type "help motd" and "help
addresses" to find out if the primary ICS is elsewhere.

read the messages the FTP server prints, use the "help" command inside
