Upstream ISP change
ISINet, the Nova Scotia consortium providing Internet access for
CCN, universities, and certain other organizations, is switching
its ISP contract to MT&T. Expected transfer date is November 24.
Editor's Note: CCN changeover completed November 20, with some
interruption the following day due to router reconfiguration.

New Server
Plans were made for another try at full installation on CCN's new
server. Carrie Gates will assemble a team to meet on Saturday.
Steps are:
1. Solaris
2. Solaris diffs
3. Use CSuite 1.0 -
+ break install after unpacking
+ apply diffs
+ continue install
Once installed,
* set up some test accounts
* NFS mount CCN info tree and test httpd
* modify "g(o who" to consolidate who lists from multiple
servers.
* decision time for new modems, by December 8:
+ roll out new lines with new server, goal Jan 1.
+ new modem pool with new number
+ terminal server or equiv.
* password system
It was proposed that we discuss the possibility of hiring someone
to drive the new server effort, working on refining and testing
the system, adding the modems etc.

.forward Reliability Problem
It was discussed that the mail system was ignoring the .forward
file occasionally. Various users seem to average about one
message per month placed in the original mailbox instead of being
forwarded.
No explanation was reached.
