Our NIC users have been transferred to that site, and arereceiving all their computation from TYMSHARE. In conjunction withthis change, we would like all sites to change their monitor HOSTtables, effective Friday, March 8, 1974.The net change we wish to accomplish is the following:1) Site 53 (octal) is OFFICE-12) Site 2 is SRI-ARC3) The nickname for site 2 is ARC (not NIC)4) The nickname for site 53 is NICPlease note that now that NIC services are available fromOFFICE-1, they rather than SRI-ARC should be accessed over thenetwork as "NIC".To effect this change, each TENEX site's monitor host table should beupdated in the following manner. The actual host name section shouldcontain the following entries (they may already be PResent).CC.(2,SR1-ARC,USER!SERVER!TENEX)CC.(253,TYMSHARE-Tip,USER!TIP)CC.(53,OFFICE-1,USER!SERVER!TENEX)Further, the NICKNAME table should contain the following entries.The entry for NIC should be changed to refer to site 53 (octal), anda new entry for ARC should be added. Specifically, they are:CC.(2,ARC,NICKNAME!SERVER!USER!TENEX)CC.(53,NIC,NICKNAME!SERVER!USER!TENEX)Other Network sites, not running TENEX, should make these changes ina manner consistent with their Operating system.As mentioned above, these changes are effective on March 8. We willinform all our users to use the nickname NiC in reference to OFFICE-1as of this date. Thank you for your co-operation.
