Louis,

Excellent.

It appears to be.  I can't do either a ping or ldmping to
angler.larc.nasa.gov.  A traceroute to the machine gets to Langley
and then goes into "star" mode:

This looks like hitting a firewall to me.

Sounds good.

Tom,

That's interesting.  I think we're having some network problem.  I had
someone today say they can access our webpage.  The security folks
might fiddle with the firewall.  There's no one here to ask.  I guess
it's a hint for me to go home.  Talk to you tomorrow.
