    Subject: 7.1 update

    The following things were noted during the VAX 7.1 update:

	    - /etc/snmpd.conf was deleted.  (Are the SNMP makefiles complete?)

	    - During mkserv: synctree not found

	    - My workstation seemed to be hanging waiting for keyboard input
	      during the auto-update.  It seemed to be waiting for "RETURN"
	      after mentioning the configuration files that would be changed.
	      Granted, I didn't wait more than 10-15 seconds, so it may have
	      just been slow...

    After the reboot, the following things were noted:

	    - The VS3100 kernel version string was "probe@ajax"
	      (I guess I parallelized the kernel builds and forgot that I
	      was using a probe@ajax window vs. builder@ajax)

"mkserv": fixed... actually, it was the synctree installation, not mkserv.

snmpd.conf installation has also been fixed, and a message has been sent
to "snmp"

The other two problems described here have not proven to be problems
yet.  The first is bad if it can be reproduced reliably.  If not, it
gets punted.  As I said, I didn't wait long enough, so I can't even call
it a certain bug.

The kernel strings aren't important, and if there is a kernel update
(which is very unlikely given the time constraints), it will be fixed by
the recompilation.
