Way cool!

Something I have been meaning to ask you about:

Access to the ADDE server on weather3 is glacially slow.  Since the
machine is not overloaded (by any means), and since one can SSH to
it quickly, etc. I am guessing that there is some sort of firewall/TCP
wrapper setup that is causing the delay.

Do you know of anything you or your campus IT group might have setup
that would be causing the slowness?

Cheers,

Tom
