If we get crashes on CHIP and dPMon again all we have to do is disconnect the BNC connector at the Fiber Optic repeater where I marked it with a sticker, then we'll be on a local network only, we don't need to add a terminator to the free BNC connection on the "T" when it is disconnected. I'll try hooking back up to the network now and see what happens. WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jun 25 17:56:56 GMT 1997 Cirrus clouds are passing over.

It looks like the FO network connection is back to normal for now.
