new dolphin+puma alive
Dear Fred and Brendan,
we had some problems this week to get dolphin (or at least its home
dirs) back
to operation. It turned out that the hard disk seems to be damaged and
cannot
easily be recovered.
So I have created a new dolphin by mounting a new 200GB IDE hard disk with
the psi linux system installed on it. A list of distinguished
scientists, namely:
banks, clayton, gray, kammel, kiburg, lauss,petitjean, winter
have access to it as afs users. More users can be added, but they must
of course have an afs account at psi.
From dolphin, puma can be accessed as in the past and used again. The puma
passwords were not yet changed, except the root. For root I took the new
password #2 created during the unblinding meeting.
Valery has checked through puma for suspicious traces of the hacker, but
could not find any of those traces imposed on old dolphin. But he noted that
there are a lot of changes of system files since creation of the system.
(They
may have been made much earlier.) Therefore Fred and/or Brendan should
also scan through the puma system for suspicious changes.
Please, check whether the new dolphin-puma system can be used again for
analysis.
In case of problems, indicate to us what you need more, also how severe the
loss of the old-dolphin files is. (The hd still exists.)
If you find things ok, we will also enable lion. The lion hard isk is
mounted in my
newly bought system, since Dan Webber exchanged the hd's. I have changed
the old root pw of lion to our new #3 pw, but you cannot access it yet.
Thats all for now. I hope you can start analysis again.
Good luck and best regards
Claude
