- Retrieved the source file for a program for Kate off of an old backup.
The file had been mistakenly deleted and had to be taken off a backup from
last year.

technicians repaired it.

machines.

problem was fixable this time without having to rebuild the disk.
- Having switched from Multinet to UCX for TCP/IP services on the Tejon/
Carizo cluster required relinking TISK in order for Nick to be able to read
Squirrel tapes.
- Got two different Finger utilities for UCX, as it does not come with this
utility by default.
- Enabled r-services on Tejon for data transfer to and from Terra10. Had
to add a user proxy for Dollar on Tejon to allow Terra10 to copy data onto
Tejon.

reflect recent changes in the cluster disk configuration.
