This article is from the Amiga Networking FAQ, by Richard Norman with numerous contributions by others.
Archie is the older of the two search tools. A user submits a query to Archie or
Veronica and they search their database for the location of files or programs.
Veronica is associated with the Gopher servers.
Both require TCP/IP at some point. Although both can be queried by electronic
mail.
There is an Archie client available for AmiTCP via anonymous FTP from
ftp.demon.co.uk in the /pub/amiga/amitcp directory.
