ISG News has posted a new item, 'Hostname change for D-PHYS print server'
Historically the D-PHYS print server has been accessible under the host name
printer.ethz.ch. As it turns out, this name violates ID's DNS rules and they
have requested we change it. We therefore have modified all references pointing
to printer.ethz.ch to now address printer.phys.ethz.ch. We have incorporated
some technical solutions that redirect many connections automatically, and also
our managed workstations have been migrated, but there might be individual
configurations that need manual intervention. So if printing stops working after
Wednesday evening, you might have to change the print server address -- see our
printing documentation.
If you are used to typing just printer instead of the now longer full host name,
you may want to change to domain search list on your computer, too. For details
about how to do this, see our documentation in the wiki for Windows and for
Linux.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Short Mail, License and Condor Server Downtime
on Thursday Evening'
We will perform a maintenance reboot of several infrastructure servers on
Thursday, 16th of May 2013, starting around 5pm. This will cause a downtime of
all e-mail related services (receiving + sending mail, accessing webmail and
non-cached mails) as well as the license server for IDL, the control server for
Condor grid computing, and most hosted virtual machines.
We expect the downtimes to be short and sequential.
