This is a message from BNL about what they are doing that I thought people may want to know about, and perhaps to subscribe to their mailing list for similar items. ________________________________ From: John Halperin [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Thu 2/16/2006 9:30 AM To: Young, Charles C.

Unless it's current with at least security patches, we wouldn't want such a machine at SLAC. -- John Halperin <[log in to unmask]> SLAC Computer Security Team (Stanford Linear Accelerator Center) On Thu, 16 Feb 2006, Young, Charles C. wrote: > Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2006 07:25:05 -0800 > From: "Young, Charles C." <[log in to unmask]> > To: atlas-sccs-planning-l <[log in to unmask]> > Subject: FW: [Usatlas-users-l] dual-core Opteron evaluation server > > FYI > > -- > Charles C.
