Announcements

DNS outage (Jun 16, 2013)
At approximately 17:55, one of the DNS servers at ICICS stopped responding, which caused a cascading failure of DNS service for ECE as well. The problem was resolved at 18:40 by restarting the affected nameservers.
Home directory outage (Jun 8, 2013)
ECE home directories were unavailable between 02:44 and 06:21 this morning. The cause is being investigated.
Spam/phishing/mail delivery problems (Apr 15, 2013; updated May 21, 2013)
One ECE user's account was compromised after divulging his/her password in a phishing attack, and was used to send spam. As a result of this incident, mail from ECE is currently being rejected by some e-mail providers, including GMail, Hotmail, and Comcast.
End-of-Life for Matlab old license servers: fs6 and service (Jan 2013)
Please note that the license servers on fs6 (for research) and on service (for classroom use) are going to retire soon. Please point your software to the following aliases: matlabr-lm (for research) and matlabt-lm (for teaching).
