Hi,

The Sparc4 named w91-216-1, located in W91-209a, has been moved recently to
accommodate some space renovations.  Since it was moved back to W91-209a a
couple days ago, I get the following message when attempting to log in:
"Login Failed.   Workstation failed to activate successfully.  Please
notify the Athena Hotline, x3-1410, hotline@mit.edu"    In addition, the
console window displays:

kill: 431: no such process
This system is in the middle of an update.
Please contact Athena Operations.
Waiting for workstation to finish activating...athena-sun4sys-04: Could not
look up Hesiod entry:  Connection refused.
/etc/athena/reactivate: update_ws: not found


If the office is unoccupied when you come by, please see Leo Ronan in
W91-101 for access.

Thanks,

-Lorraine
