Hello.  rcrs and rcas upgrades have been completed.  Condor is running 
everywhere.  But, LSF is not running due to some problem (it should be 
running soon.)  HPSS reconstruction software also has a problem and is 
been investigated.

NOTE:  RCF machines has been compromised a few days ago  using a 
regitimate user password (from STAR grounp).  rootkit was installed in 
two machines.  And, this person was able to logon to about dozen 
machines.   This might cause some headache to RCF such as applying a 
security patch as soon as they are available.  Due to this incident, for 
now, there will be one change: ssh keys in gateway machines 
(rssh01,02,03 and 04) will be deleted twice a year.  (I don't think this 
improves a security.)  If you use ssh keys (I do), you need to put them 
there at least twice a year.
