A user (aleks) was trying to log in on m36-383-1.  He got "fileserver
aphrodite.mit.edu" not responding.  He got the same error (for cyrus) when he
tried to attach games.  I found that the time on his workstation was fine:

I had him try to attach aleks, and attach -n aleks, but he got the same
error (fileserver not responding).  I think there may be something wrong with
his workstation.  In any event, I sent him to find a different workstation, and
told him I'd notify you folks of the problem.

If the problem is NOT hardware (ie, if it's something I could have told
him to do) please let me know.

Thanks.
