dglasser@yale-comix.UUCP (Dan Glasser) (08/02/84)

    The UUCP site "yale-comix" is undergoing a name change.  As of
Friday, August 3, at 12 noon, our new site name will be "yale".
Also, since a lot of our site info has changed, I am submitting
the following "new site" announcement.

				Danny Glasser

				yale!dglasser (UUCP)
				Glasser-Daniel@YALE (ARPA)
				dglasser@YALECS (BITNET)

What the site is all about.

	This site is the Yale University Department of Computer Science.

	Our machines are currently on an Ethernet running Chaosnet (soon
	to be TCP/IP), and include 7 VAX 750's running 4.1BSD (soon most
	or all of these will be running 4.2), 1 VAX 750 and 1 Pyramid 
	running 4.2BSD, 1 VAX 780 and 3 VAX 750's running VMS, a DEC-20
	running TOPS-20, and over 150 Apollo workstations (and soon, some
	Symbolics Lisp machines).

	The machine that serves as our UUCP gateway is a VAX 750 running
	4.1BSD, and is know locally as Comix.

	We are also on ARPANET (site name YALE) and BITNET (site name
	YALECS -- MAIL ONLY).

CCI, Central Engineering will be changing our site names to live within
the 6 char max site name length graciously imposed by USG's uucp.
We've been approved by the uucp site name registry to change from
cciengx to ccicex.  ("ce" stands for "central engineering").

So,		--old--     --new--
		ccieng2 --> ccice2
		ccieng5 --> ccice5
		ccieng6 --> ccice6

The new names will be in place on Monday, September 10, 1984.  The
actual conversion will take place sometime between Friday 9/7 at 5pm
and Monday 9/10 at 8:15am.

Our uucp neighbors will know about both names for a few weeks.  After
this interim period uucp mail to the old names will fail.
