Sorry, TIm, you're right - I should have posted here. We are now down to 4 dialin lines: 761-3000, 5041, 3411, and 3451. Are you saying that the trunk hunt isn't working at all, or just that all four lines were busy when you tried to call?
BTW, we should figure out which modems are no longer connected and unplug them.
I called Ameritech this morning to get them to fix the hunting on our lines. (I was afraid that if I called on the weekend, I'd get someone who would make the problem worse.) I spoke with a gentleman named Jim, who checked and found that all our numbers *except* 761-3000 had been programmed to hunt. He sent a request down to the programming department to fix things, and they should be better in a few hours. Please post here or send me mail if there continue to be problems.
Thank you for attention in getting this fixed. I just dialed into -3000, any easy way to find if I did hunt down?
I am currently on ttytf, but that might tell us if we hunted down from -3000
who | grep 216.93.104.37 will give a list of people currently dialed in, and from there you can guess whether you successfully trunk-hunted.
Or you can dial 761-3000 with one phone, and dial it again with another.
All my items are almost new again - they start at response 6, for instance, instead of 38. I am typing in 38 to go to the end. What might have caused this?
The /a partition, which contains your home directory, was temporarily full yesterday. Perhaps your conference participation file was corrupted when picospan tried (and failed) to write it to a full filesystem? (Just a guess and probably not a good one -- disk full errors occur so frequently on Grex (and before that, on M-Net) that I'd imagine picospan has to have a fairly robust way to deal with them.)
No, I think that's exactly what happened to Sindi, and to me.
No, you're right, Mike. Picospan doesn't handle it gracefully at all -- it truncates the participation file.
I recall seeing something about /a being full yesterday, thanks.
/d is almost full, too
The motd says Happy Diwali 2002. First, it's not 2002. Second, this year Diwali was on October 25th. Just an observation.
I noticed this same thing. What is up with the birthday list in the motd? I see several birthdays listed for users that haven't used the system in ages (like griz), and many of us that came by Grex later in life aren't ever listed (like myself, for one). Does one have to be in the "inner circle" to matter?
No, but you probably have to provide someone with your birthday..
Who do we provide that information to? I thought they picked it off your plan. Or did they run some kind of program at one point and then never ran it again. So now we're not on the list. so what gives?
Valerie handles the birthday list, but with kids and all she's probably not had much time to clean it. Send email to valerie if you want to add your bday.
I complained and got told to send email, and that's how I got on. Bruce still isn't on, afaik.

Whadya mean? I am too there:
;: grex; grep bhoward /usr/local/etc/birthday.list
May 29 Happy Birthday Bruce (bhoward) Howard!
;: grex;
It's probably a good thing that birthday list is opt-in, not opt-out. Some folks might not want their birthdays, or their presence on Grex, publicized in the motd. Besides, in view of the fact that people can edit their .plan files in arbitrary ways, culling birthdays from .plan's poses some technical problems. Anyway, now you know how to get on the birthday list, and how to view your birthday entry.
Thanks, remmers!

Don't be too sure of that last. Grex is as susceptible to haunting as anyplace else.
re #57, 58 - are you saying that Grex is like the Hotel California? You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave? ;)
...And He Ought To Know.
Re. 57: This is true. I've been in and out of here several times with spans that'ov lasted over a year!
The vote program is now open for business in the 2003 Grex Board of Directors election. To run it from a tty connection (dialup/telnet/ssh), type vote at a Unix shell prompt or !vote from just about any other prompt. Or you can access the voting facility on the web at the URL http://cyberspace.org/cgi-bin/pw/voting-booth The vote program allows you to view the list of candidates and their campaign statements, and to cast a ballot. If you do the latter and later change your mind about whom you want to vote for, simply run the program again and cast a new ballot. Your new votes replace any previous one. Any Grex user can cast a ballot, but only the votes of eligible voting members will be counted in determining the outcome of the election. Discussion on the election and the candidates can be found in the Coop conference (conf:coop). Polls close at the end of the day (EST) on December 15.
Today, Monday Dec. 15, is the last day to vote in the 2003 Grex Board of Directors election. The polls close at midnight EST. See the previous response (resp:62) for instructions on how to vote.
Only half an hour left!!!!!!!!!!!! ICANAT WAIT!
I'm afraid you must...at least for a little longer. aruba has to confirm the official membership list. remmers and davel then have to conduct independent counts of the votes.
These things have now been done. Winners in the 2003 Grex Board of Directors election are polygon, mary, slynne, and bhoward. See Item 25 in the Coop conference (item:coop,25) for details.
