ISG News has posted a new item, 'Nearing End of Life support for Windows 2000
and Windows XP SP2'
On July 13th 2010, Windows 2000 Server/Professional and Windows XP Service Pack
2 will no longer be supported with security updates by Microsoft.
Machines running these operating systems should be upgraded to newer versions
like Windows 7 or Server 2008 if they are directly connected to the D-PHYS
network.
The IT Use Policy of ETH does not allow systems without an active patch cycle
to be connected to the ETH network.
Please make sure that all computers running any of the affected operating
systems have been migrated by July 13th 2010. The same also applies to even
older systems like Win 9x or NT 4.0 of course.
More information about Microsoft Support Lifecycle can be found here.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Mail Server Migration Part 3: Webmail'
On Thursday, 4th of May 2010, starting at 5pm we will migrate our webmail
service to the new mail server. Since there are no version upgrades of the
webmail applications Roundcube and Twig, it will be a smooth transition and you
shouldn't even notice the migration. The only thing which can happen is that you
get logged out of webmail if you use webmail while the DNS entry changes to the
new server address.
