Statement of Upcoming Move of NIC/NLS Services

Within the next few weeks we will be transferring computer services for

our ROME, ARPA, and NIC users from the ARC/NIC system to a new system we

are installing at TYMSHARE in Cupertino, Ca. The name of this system is

OFFICE-1 and is site 53 (oct) when talking to TELNET or site 43 (dec)

when talking to a TIP. Currently we are experiencing hardware

difficulties on this system, but we and the staff at TYMSHARE are

working diligently to solve the problems. Once the hardware is solid and

reliable, the above users will have their directories transferred to the

OFFICE-1 facility, and receive their NLS power from that site. Watch for

upcoming announcements as to the exact date when your directory will be

moved to OFFICE-1.
