TECHSUPT@GWUVM.BITNET (Stuart Simpson) (02/02/90)
On 31 January 1990 and again on 1 February 1990, GWUVM experienced a link failure that affected eight BITNET links; PSUBIT, UMDD, SAKACS00, AGU, BITNIC, GALLAU, CUAVAXA, and DOEVM. Both these failures were traced to the same cause, a conditioned power supply within the local telephone Company's, C & P Telephone Co, local equipment. In the first failure, C&P replaced a blown fuse and in the second failure C&P replaced the entire power supply. We hope that this has "cured" the problem. We regret any inconvenience that this outage may have caused. Stuart
