	Tonight the 8.2.2 patch release of NetBSD-Athena will go
out. This patch release has only small changes:

	* The /usr/athena/bin/passwd program now changes local
	  passwords, including root, properly.
	* The installation procedure no longer stores network
	  informaton in /etc/rc.conf, which prevented the documented 
	  method of changing the network address from working. The
	  update script will fix machines that were installed before
	  this release.

	Machines with AUTOUPDATE=true set in /etc/athena/rc.conf will
automatically take the update; this is the default. Other machines can
be manually updated by logging in as root when the machine is not busy
and running /srvd/update_ws.

	Questions and comments should go to netbsd-help@mit.edu.

	- Nathan
