So, if you report a problem or shutdown condition, it won't be received until having passed the moderation step."

Message-ID: <3E4A5EF5.7B4369AE@snf.stanford.edu> Bill and Mike: 1. Although I had temporarily been moderating all mail lists, I've unmoderated the coral mailing list since I don't have to worry about you improperly handling virus-laden mail. More importantly, I realised that if the Coral servers sent out a "help, I'm dying" message ... that it would be best if we all had a chance to see that without me standing in the way. Of course, I hope that the script would actually restart the servers ... but it would be good to check. 2. I think that we had planned to get together to day to talk about what should live on the RAID and our architecture/configuration issues related to getting atu/sunstar/spf ready to go. Schedule-wide, I should be reasonably flexible ... except that I have a doctor appointment that will keep me away from about 9:15 a.m. until about 10:30 (allowing for medical delays, I can't see any way that I wouldn't be back by 11 a.m. ...) 3. In terms of browsers for Sunray ... we know that Netscape 4.7* has had chronic problems. I think that my proposal would be to install both Mozilla and whatever the latest version of Netscape is (7, I think) and then remove the place where we automatically start netscape for everyone ... that way they can choose what works best for them. I don't think that we can only go with the Mozilla approach (although I'm tempted ...) because I think that I number of folks likely use Netscape messenger for mail in the lab. Thoughts?

Message-ID: <3E4BBE3E.757B03FF@snf.stanford.edu> Bill and Mike: I now remember one thing that I meant to ask this morning: where will /app ultimately reside? If we view /app as the source tree for various applications that will, presumably, be mounted on virtually all of our machines and will likely have various subdirectories for Solaris 2.6, Solaris 8.0, Redat 8.0, and others (so that we can compile only once on each platform and install from there ....) where do we intend to put /app? My reason for asking is that folks are asking for a browser ... I installed netscape from /tmp just to get it going, but we probably need a better location. Is that a candidate for the RAID?

Message-ID: <3E4BF65E.3C7ED001@snf.stanford.edu> Bill and Mike: I still think something is not right with mounting ... If I am on rosen and cd /home ... I see /home/Student and /home/Devel ... but no /home/labnet And, if I "su - labnet" it can't find /home/labnet which I know I used to be able to do. If I am on sunray I can "cd /home" ... I see all sorts of links that, I think, never used to be there. Certainly the link name /home/mudie, and /home/losleben (that point to /home/Devel/mudie and /home/Devel/losleben) haven't always been there have they? I'm having a hell of a time getting the newuser, mailforwrd, and setpasswd scritps set up for Janine ... partially becuase they used to call /app/sudo/bin/sudo ... but in part because I'm struggling to just get them made and installed without screwing anythingn else up. Does anyone either see what I am missing or know how to fix this?

Message-ID: <3E4E615A.93065F25@snf.stanford.edu> Bill and Mike: I rebooted sunray while it was quiet this morning and it did eliminate the green newts (Bill, yesterday we had an increasing number of green newts and it wouldn't allow us to run "utpolicy -i clear". At this point, I don't know whether we can yet run utpolicy -i clear ... but at least the newts are gone. If they come back and we can't eliminate them with the above command, then I think that we have no choice but to rerun utconfig. Mike: in the Sunray 1.3 software book, there are several pages of "worksheet" for writing down configuration parameters, etc ... it would be useful if you could generate those for each of us based on what you and Dennis did so taht we have them for reference incase we need to re-install any of this stuff again ...

SNF Lab Members: I've received a couple of comments from folks worrying about the warning that they get about the "Legion of the Bouncy Castle" when they download the new version of Remote Coral. The new public domain crytpography stuff that we are using is from www.bouncycastle.org (AKA the Legion of the Bouncy Castle). While I personally have no knowledge as to the origins of that name ... I do believe that they are legitimate providers of cryptography software. (Afterall, this is Silicon Valley ... I'm a little surprised at people thinking that that is a funny name for an organization in the land of startups with funny names. Maybe the lack of "Z" and "X" is their name is suspicious ...). In any event, the Bouncy Castle stuff is what we are trying to download to your machine as a part of Remote Coral because that is the package that we are using to handle encryption/decryption of your login name and remote passwords. It is flagged separately because it is signed by Sun whereas Remote Coral proper is signed by us ... So, it is certainly my belief that the Bouncy Castle stuff is legitimate, safe, and "for real" ... but, as is often the case, the ultimate decision as to whether you want that downloaded to your machine is yours. Of course, if you don't ... Remote Coral won't run ... Thanks for your observant responses, John Note: Team Coral has no affiliation with the Legion of the Bouncy Castle (finacial or otherwise ...) other than that is the encryption/decryption package that we use because it is one of the few packages offering public domain RSA encryption.
