Re: 19991214: NLDN Y2K IDD header discussion (cont.)

Sandy,

We have a Sun Sparc 10 running 2.6 for your y2k test.  The machine
name is y2ktest.atmos.albany.edu (169.226.4.80).  The home directory
for nldntest is automounted so your stuff should all be there.

The only difference is that the NLDN feed on this machine is on Port A
instead of Port B on aspen.  Otherwise there should be no difference.

you can use root with fxRldm to set the date for the rollover.

If you have any troubles you should probably send an e-mail to
address@hidden.  That way either David or I can answer. 
And since this is time sensitive this will get your problem resolved
the quickest.

Thanks again for you help,

Pete.
