508.0. "Lemans - let it live or let it die?" by NQOS01::beast.det.dec.com::Ray Browder (Did you Exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role i) Tue Mar 25 1997 12:43

Hello eveyone,

I'm the last admin person for Lemans and its
news server.

Lemans is an old DEC station 5000 model 260.
Running ULTRIX.

I am debaiting moving the news server to
DIGITAL UNIX or shuting it down completely.

Does anyone care if news on Lemans goes away?

I will propably decide after April 1997.

Thanks,
Ray

Matt,

I don't know what I will do with the hardware yet.

I'm still running my DNS and e-mail on ULTRIX, so I
need to keep some spares.

Ok,

The people have spoken, sort of.

Lemans will die.

Thanks everyone,
Ray
