Hi,
We noticed that QUICKSTATION-BURTON-CONNER.MIT.EDU isn't automatically updating
when new Athena patch releases become available. It appears to think
that it is in the middle of an update already. The easiest way to fix
this is for you to log into the machine as root and run the following
commands:
attach release
/mit/release/bin/fixversion
Once you have done this, QUICKSTATION-BURTON-CONNER.MIT.EDU will once again take
patch releases when they are available and no one is logged in. It is
important that this problem be addressed, since some Athena patch
releases contain important security fixes.
