Hi,
It might be too late to ask the question on it. Until today I had the time
to apply
this patch but got ERROR message.
After I logged in as root and run "update_ws", I got
"You cannot take an update on a layered machine"
This initial problem is from the phenomena that I can't run "ssh nde.mit.edu"
from athena any more. My host server is running linux 9.0 with host name
"nde.mit.edu". Please help me!
Thanks!
Ji-yong
