Check out your terminal settings, first:
printenv TERM
and
printenv TERMCAP
I usually use vt100, but I found that my xterminal passed its termtype to grex
and just messed up everything.

well it's fixed. everytime i ran 'change', it wouldn't fix it, and had my cols
set to 195, while the other account is set to 95.
'stty cols 95' seems to have fixed it. my terminal is vt102, but used to be
vt100, perhaps the switch did screw it up ..

I just discovered that ssh does not work very well with grex's password-aging
system: the report is merely "permission denied". Switching to telnet
revealed that the password had expired and needed to be changed. 'twould be
really nice if ssh would let folks in and then something else would prompt
for a new password. Or, if nothing else, ssh could say, "Try telnet".

I'm wondering how automated the agora rollover is.
U.S. Naval Observatory estimate for start of summer
today is 9:24. Let's see how timely we are.

Unless Walter's written something, it's not automated at all.

Right, I believe Walter does the change manually.

The critical /bbs/conflist file lives under an old version control system;
i'd have very little interest in trying to write all the boring check-for-
and-handle-all-possible-errors code in any case.
Peeking in /bbs/agora42 suggests that our fair fw entered the first item of
the new agora about 8:30 last evening (Ann Arbor time). I'll actually do
the roll when the fates have the right person ready to get the very first
response of summer in.

(hmm. it was about six months ago that the race to become the first
to respond to a new Agora led to an irrational feud that has yet to cease.)

I didn't think Walter had written something to automate it. I wouldn't.

When I mentioned auto-agora-roll on M-Net they
laughed at me. Laughed I tell you.
My only consolation will be to dig back
to six months ago.
