Hi!

We had a report today that the floppy drive for m11-116-4 is not
working correctly.  A user attempted to read a disk on that machine
and it didn't work, but he was able to read the disk on another
Maxine.  The error messages were: (from oworkstation 7817)
----------------
I'm receiving the following error while trying to read a 3.5 inch disk
on a DEC 5000.

skc54@m11-116-4> add consult
skc54@m11-116-4> mdir
init: open "/dev/rfloppy": I/O error

in addition, my console window displays:

10:06  fd failure: Error 1 reading ptbl at open.
-----------------

Monday a user complained that her Zephyrs did not work from 
m11-116-4, but I was able to log in a send z's from the machine.
Her error message was:
---------
athena% z clerch
Received authorization failure while sending to clerch
----------
It's ozephyr log 6380.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

Matt G.
