Hi, 
   now that the decstations have come, we need to move some.  :-0

	wren, a personal decstation 5000, wants to move from 9-550 to 
	9-516.  

	sullivan, a personal decstation 5000, wants to move from 9-516
	to 9-550.

   I suggest that we leave the equipment in place. Athena changes the 
serial numbers associated with each name; someone changes the name in each
/etc/athena/rc.conf, then reboots the machines at the same time.  Both come up
with their new identities -- problem is solved.

   Of course, we certainly could move the hardware.  John Chase said he hasn't
been working out recently.  We need to keep him in shape.   heh heh.

	- Rob Smyser
