News bulletin #131
6-January 1999
Today's topics:
- New modems.
- Nav 5 is here.
- Hebrew University Personnel Database.
o New modems: New modems were installed on 6210333. The new modems
support 56K using the V.90 standard. Currently we have on this number
120 modems which support 56K and 60 modems which support 33,6K. In
less than 3 weeks we'll have 240 modems on that line, all supporting
56K.
In about 3 weeks we'll also have a new number in Rehovot with digital
modems and ISDN.
If you are using the old numbers (6540303, 5671211) please move to
6210333, as these numbers will be cancelled soon.
o Nav 5 is here and is available for download. Please see
http://pc.huji.ac.il/distrib/nav5 for details and to download. Note
that this site is restricted to Hebrew University IP addresses only.
If you get a "permission denied " error message this means that you
are trying to connect from a non-HUJI address or that your computer is
not defined in the name server. In the latter case, please contact
your local coordinator/computation authority branch for help.
o Hebrew University Personnel Database: please invest a couple of
minutes to check and update your personal information. To access the
database, please visit
http://www.huji.ac.il/htbin/diana/segemain/segel/1? and search for
yourself (you may search in Hebrew or English by choosing the
appropriate item). Click the Update button to modify your data. In
this case you will have to identify yourself to the system by typing
in your ID (teudat zehut) number and your secret code which appeared
on the December 1998 pay stub. Please send e-mail to
huji-db@cc.huji.ac.il with questions or problems you encounter.
