RFC 621

NIC USER DIRECTORIES AT SRI-ARC 💖

okay bestie, this is RFC 621 🎀 It's by Michael D. Kudlick from SRI-ARC, dated March 6, 1974, and it's filed as RFC # 621 (NIC # 21994) 🦋 The original doesn't list anything it obsoletes or updates, so I'm not making anything up there ✨

Okay so the big news 😭 On Friday evening, 8-Mar-74, SRI-ARC is going to delete all the directories that belonged to NIC users who got transferred to OFFICE-1 🧹 Literal digital spring cleaning 💅

At the same time, every Network Host is making a change so that the Hostname "NIC" points to OFFICE-1 (Host 53 octal) instead of SRI-ARC 🔥 (This is connected to RFC 620, NIC # 21993, so go check that one too if you want the full picture 🌸)

So what does this mean for mail? 👑

• Mail sent to nicusername@NIC will get delivered to OFFICE-1, which is exactly where it should go ✨
• Mail sent to nicusername@SRI-ARC will not be accepted at SRI-ARC anymore, because that username won't exist there 💀 The user's name is just gone from that machine now

PLEASE NOTE: if you got any network mail delivered to you at SRI-ARC before Friday evening, 8-March, it is YOUR responsibility to read it. That mail gets deleted at that time 😭🚨 Read your mail, bestie!!! 🫶
