From: sly@leonardo.mit.edu
The network security team has been working on the breakin
of a machine in building 33, sunnyday.mit.edu (18.34.0.46).
The machine sunnyday.mit.edu, which is currently located
in building 33, has been root compromised and needs to
be reinstalled. Because of the current status of the construction
in building 33, it is not possible for people to stay in the
building long enough to actually back up and reinstall the
machine. I'd like to move the machine on Wednesday morning
from building 33 to the 37 cluster (specifically 37-332) where
there is currently an empty (and functioning) RJ-45 drop.
Someone from techsquare.com will be reinstalling the machine
at around 10:30am and then it can be moved back to building
33. The relocation is temporary and I will be working with
Ron Hoffmann to make sure all the networking magic happens
correctly. If possible, I'd also like to borrow the table
that's unused against the wall in 37-312 if I can't get a cart
to transport the machine on (so I don't have to set it on the
floor).
I can be reached at x3-3549 if there are any questions.
Thanks, Angie
