Howdy all!

It seems as though the troubles with the new machines are finally coming 
under control.   m7-321-10, 11 and 12 are all finally behaving fairly 
rationally (I think), but m7-321-9 is still on the blink.  Effectively
put, it is not getting its hesiod info (or so it tells us).

On a markedly different note, m7-321-1 has this interesting problem of leaving
up the big "X" screen saving background thing even after people have logged
out.  Could this be an effect of it still running a bastardized version 
of 6.3B?  

In a realated tale, if, lets say, we were to use m7-321-1 as a printer server
(for our plotter), would we still be able to use it as a remote log in 
workstation through the I/O boards (as we do currently)?

Thnaks all, hopefully #9 will be all smoothed out soon.
