NETWORK INFORMATION CENTER SCHEDULE FOR NETWORK USERS

The Network Information Center has planned to provide service for network users on a regular basis Monday through Friday.

This service will begin on Monday, October 4, 1971.

The daily schedule for network users will be:

(times are Pacific Daylight / Pacific Standard Time)

      0500 to 1200      system available
                        except Tuesday, when hours are 0800 to 1200
      
      1200 to 1300      system not available
      
      1300 to 1800      system available
      
      1800 to 2200      system available on an irregular basis
      
      2200 to 0500      system not available

This schedule is temporary and subject to change.

The system is available on an irregular basis on weekends.

Those periods marked as available on an irregular basis are generally devoted to system development. Any user may be asked to log off on short notice.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

As soon as the user's Telnet connection is established to the NIC, the system herald will be printed, followed immediately by a brief (possibly null) message to network users. This message will contain any items that are of particular interest to network users.

use your site ident as the user name

the password is ARPA

use an account number consisting of site ident-your last name

         for example, if we receive the string
                log ucla-nmc arpa ucla-postel
         the user will be logged in as John Postel from UCLA

After logging in, the (possibly null) system message common to all logins will be printed.

If you experience any trouble getting into the NIC, call us via the telephone numbers listed below. If the number is not listed as a direct dial, you must contact your operator and ask for the appro- priate Zenith or Enterprise number. If the operator is unfamiliar with the use of Enterprise or Zenith numbers, ask to speak to the supervisor.

Dick Watson for administrative problems.

John Melvin vor NCP or Telnet problems.

Marily Auerbach or Dirk van Nouhuys for TNLS problems.

If NIC personnel do not answer, a local answering service will take the call. Give the name of the person to whom your question is directed and your question or comment. We will contact the answering service every morning and reply as soon as possible.
