Hi folks,

I received a call from Kenneth Kennedy's secretary (Prouchestia Goodarzi).
He can't log in to his Athena workstation (Vaxstation 3100), and hasn't
been able to for a month.  The machine is apparently alive (ie: there is the
usual login window), but when he tries to login, he gets error
messages:
  231: no such process
  No Hesiod for room 35-209

The workstation is in that room, 35-209.  The machine name 
is M35-209-1.  Anne tried to ping it, but it doesn't look like
its on the network.

Apparently these folks contacted somebody at Athena a month ago and
never heard back, so you might want to touch base with them soon so
they know they've not fallen through the cracks again.  Kennedy's
phone/voice mail is x3-4181.  His secretary's line is x3-7380.

Thanx muchly
