Greetings.  This is user pepsi@athena.  I logged on m37-312-8 and it froze after
awhile so I logged on m37-312-7 and looked up how to reboot it under
olc_answers.  It said to press the halt button at the back of the computer, and
type 'auto' at the >> prompt.

This did not accomplish anything, so I wrote to olc and asked them about it. 
After a few tries, I typed '?' which gave me a list of commands.  One was 'warm'
which returned a 'rstrt err' and 'boot', which takes command-line arguments I was
not able to decipher.

Well the point is, it is currently inoperative and doesn't give any signs that
it will change its state any time in the near future without assistance.  If the
answer is something I can fix, I'll be on for awhile.  Otherwise, I'll leave it
in your hands.  'Znol' says I'm still logged on it, though, which I hope will
change at some point down the road.

						Thanks,

						G R Gustafson
