Padlipsky +Request for Comments: 590 MIT-Multics +NIC: 20326 19 November 1973 + + + Multics Address Change + + We will be changing the Network address of MIT-Multics from 6 to 44 + (decimal) on Monday, December 17, 1973. Please make any necessary + table and program changes then, and accept our apologies for the + inconvenience. + + The change was necessitated by the fact that 1) there were some nine + uses for the four ports on IMP 6, making the second MIT IMP + desirable; 2) there were four very active Hosts on IMP 6, making the + shift of at least one of them to the new, less busy IMP desirable; + and 3) the new Multics machine is some 2000 feet from the old IMP, + making it the logical candidate for the move. + + It is likely that we will have one or two additional test sessions on + the new IMP prior to the changeover date. These will be announced in + our "message of the day", and would only affect -- temporarily -- + users who cannot employ numeric Host addresses directly. + + + RECEIVED AT NIC 11-21-73 + + + [ This RFC was put into machine readable form for entry ] + [ into the online RFC archives by Lorrie Shiota 1/02 ] + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +Padlipsky [Page 1] + |
