Tonight’s server reboot will also take mint, debian, and scientific out of service briefly.  This should be a relatively brief outage of these shell servers and the mail subsystem lasting approximately ten minutes.  Also, there will still be DNS servers and incoming mail servers available so mail will be queued during this interval, it’s delivery will only be delayed.

     OpenSuse is still broken, I have not been able to determine yet why it will not authenticate NIS accounts.

     The other shell servers will remain in service.
