Gilbert,

I tried to get onto weather2 (ssh, telnet) and was unable.  Here is
the error trail:

/home/mcidas/mcidas7.8/src% ssh !$ -l mcidas
ssh weather2.admin.niu.edu -l mcidas 
Secure connection to weather2.admin.niu.edu refused.

I see from the next couple of lines that ssh is not there yet, but
telnet doesn't work:

/home/mcidas/mcidas7.8/src% telnet weather2.admin.niu.edu
Trying...
Connected to weather2.admin.niu.edu.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed.

So, there seems to be a little configuration tweaking needed.

No worries.

>Yep, this may become my new feed machine soon!

Sounds good.

Stops working?  What are the symptoms?  I have run into situations where
I have to rerun Xconfigurator to get things working.  I will need to
think back to remember exactly what the cause of that was.

I will check again tomorrow.
