This is a periodic message regarding SSH access to the lab from home (or
other remote locations). Note the clarification meaning that you may be
able to get such access from hosts you previously thought we could not
support (namely those with a non-static IP address).

SSH access to the lab machines is restricted to hosts we "know" about. For
minimal interference with your work this list should contain all the
machines you regularly use. So, let us know if:

 - you're new to the lab

 - you changed your ISP, or your ISP changed your IP address (see below for
dynamically-allocated addresses)

 - there's a new host that you occasionally use and would like to use to
login to the lab from

 - you have travel plans and know the IP address of the machine you'll use
for work there


 We will need to know the IP address of the machine. Even if you don't know
it, or don't know how to determine it, contact us and we'll help you figure
it out.


IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING DYNAMICALLY-ALLOCATED ADDRESSES:
we can definitely support these. Let us know the netblock your ISP
uses to allocate your address. If you don't know it, contact us and we'll
help you determine it.


To get access, mail your request to admin at autonlab.org.


Last note: if you disconnected service or lost access to a machine
previously on the access list, please let us know so we can remove it.
