A quickie. Do the folks who came in and were assigned an old-style ID (fmlast), then later assigned a new-style ID (lastfm), have two accounts on MiamiU and MiaVX1? I've noticed a number of people who have both IDs, and I was wondering how that worked. Are both IDs just mapped to one account (doubtful, since they have different login times when I PH them), or are they actually two, independent accounts? If the latter, does that mean they have twice the space allocation as everyone else? Or more (as I think we used to get more space a few years back)? Speaking of space allocations, are there any plans at MCIS for giving students more space on VX1 in the near future? To have any kind of real web page requires more than the maximum 1.5MB available, and just my mail overflows the 0.5MB default allocation. As I've learned, the situation is the same for student organizations, which I find pretty pitiful. Of course, I bet the major players, like ASG, get just about as much space as they want.... And I bet most of the space allocated is still not used by students, so the way I see it, there's currently no good reason not to give a more reasonable amount of space to those who request it (and are putting it to good use, of course). This is especially true in light of the fact that we can't run our own servers as an alternative, due to lack of static-IP. And don't even get me started on the process we have to go through right now just to get our accounts to 3,000 blocks--those of you who've done this probably know what I mean (I dearly miss the days when Kent handled this‹just a quick e-mail and he took care of you). Incidentally, this is another area where Miami's computing resources lag behind many other schools'. Even at Wright State, a school about the size of Miami but with much lower tuition, the limit is much higher. I have a couple of friends there, and they don't even know that there is a limit... they've put in 4MB of files and not run into one yet. Of course, their technology personnel aren't nearly as helpful as the couple of people we have here who answer these ramblng posts.... :-) Well, sorry to rant. I'll now return to my homework I've been procrastinating doing all night. Regards, Bob -- Robert E.
