Hi,

We have problems log on the new Athena system (Kant) since it has been
replaced the old one (on 10/5/1999).  I tried to log on Kant today and got
the message from the Console window:

Warning: IP: Hardware address '00:10:a4:06:c2:75' trying to be our address
18.171.000.021.

Is someone using the IP, which belongs Kant?  Please help us solve this
problem ASAP.

Thanks,

Hong Li
