Since SIPB shut off remote access to hodge and podge, I can't rlogin
to any machine that gets the decmips AFS packs to check if the same
binaries and such work on an Athena machine,
SIPB did not shut off remote access to hodge and podge, we modified
them so that only people in the passwd file would be able to log in
remotely. Joe, you're a SIPB member; log in on hodge and podge as
root, add your passwd entry to /etc/passwd.local and /etc/passwd, and
you'll be able to log into them.
but it works on our
Athena 7.3 vaxen (where, interestingly, there is a /usr/bin/X11/*tex).
A minimum of investigation would reveal that this is because in 7.3,
/usr/bin/X11 is a link to /usr/athena/bin.
I unfortunately cannot provide much help with the latex problem.
