Uplink Hints
How do I find the IP?
1 of 6: Since the InterNIC doesn't contain the IPs of any Central Mainframes, you'll have to find it otherwise.
2 of 6: Who else than hackers would have need of knowing the IP?
3 of 6: Naturally, the Arunmor staff themselves.
4 of 6: They probably can't remember all the IPs by heart, so you can be pretty sure that they have it written down somewhere.
5 of 6: Have you ever wondered what the 'View Links' is for?
6 of 6: Hack into Arunmor's Internal Services Machine and check the Links. You'll find the Mainframe's IP.
