Hello,

We recently upgraded the network switches serving the 1-142 cluster.
Any workstations with a 10/100 Ethernet card should be able to 
connect to MITnet at 100Mb/s.  I tried rebooting one of them to 
see if it would happen automatically, but it seemed to still 
be talking to the network at 10Mb/s.  (It was an Ultra 10, 
m1-142-24.mit.edu.)  Seem like the workstations might need 
some software tweaking in order to take advantage of the higher 
speed.

(Caveat: I'm not very clueful about Sun's, so I might have 
this wrong.)
