Protein Data Bank Brookhaven National Laboratory announced their
anonymous ftp site in their Januray 91 Newsletter. Do not get excited
though. There are no PDB files there. However, they have a file with
current newsletter and current list of PDB entries.
Here is how to get there (adapted from their file "access_info.txt" from
pub directory):

====================================================================

File Server Available:

The PDB now has an e-mail file server available for your use.  This 
server will be providing PDB general information, documentation and 
other specialized material. To receive more information, send a message 
to FILESERV@PB1.CHM.BNL.GOV and include the following text:

                  send info your_e-mail_address

A user named "jones" at machine "demo.div.inst.edu" would send an 
e-mail message to FILESERV@PB1.CHM.BNL.GOV with the following text 
included:

                  send info jones@demo.div.inst.edu

Anonymous FTP available:

The PDB now has an anonymous ftp account available on the system:
IRISC2.CHM.BNL.GOV(130.199.129.8).  It is possible to transfer files to and
from this system using "anonymous" as the username and your real username as
password.  PDB general information and documentation will be available for
downloading.  You can also upload files you may wish to send to the PDB. 

Anyone experiencing problems or having questions related to the above 
network services is requested to send an e-mail message to:
SKORA@PB1.CHM.BNL.GOV.
