Can anyone tell me if there is a WMS server out there (that's working) that serves Open Street Maps data? I've searched and found some old sites that don't seem to be working now, and I found some information that talks about a MapServer solution that involves downloading several "helper" files and running things through PostGIS, but is it that complicated? Isn't there just a simple WMS server out there I could use to load US streets into a MapServer map or is this not the best way to go about it?

I also tried http://services.giub.uni-bonn.de/wms?, with no luck. I couldn't even get capabilities from it.

Here's one of the ones I tried. I'll post the code so if anyone sees a problem with it, please let me know? That would be helpful. But as it is, this server also doesn't appear to be working. Both of these were mentioned in search googlits, but there's not a heck of a lot out there about this.
  LAYER
     NAME osm
     GROUP "Roads"
     TYPE RASTER
     METADATA
        "wms_title"           "Open Street Map"
        "wms_group_title"     "Roads & Highways"
        "wms_format"          "image/jpeg"
        "wms_srs"             "EPSG:4326"
        "wms_name"            "osm"
        "wms_server_version"  "1.1.1"
        "wms_transparent"     "true"
     END
     STATUS ON
     CONNECTIONTYPE WMS
CONNECTION "http://data1.vizure.net/server/services/request.php?jname=/wms";
     PROJECTION
        "init=epsg:4326"
     END
  END

TIA,
