How did the node-name 'open-loop' get changed to 'slotine' on one of the Mech
Eng SPARCclassics? The original greensheet said 'open-loop', but when I got
another copy after the machine had actually been deployed, the name had been
changed. If you look in hostinfo, both names are listed, with different IP
addresses!

I have no idea where the address "slotine" came from. The machine
name requested was open-loop. Since only slotine is pingable, I'd guess
that that is the Sparc classic that was deployed.
