UM,UMM,UMPI admins,

For a number of years now, we have desired to remove support for 
appletalk and IPX routing.  We have generally made that known, removing it 
when the opportunity arose.  We sense that much of what currently remains 
is not used.

Only antiquated Novell or Apple products should require either of these  
protocols. Instead of re-creating the wheel, here are some references to the 
reasons/implications of doing so.

If you believe there is a reason this support must be retained, please reply to 
[log in to unmask] by June 1. We would like to phase this support out 
before the start of Fall-06 semester.

IPX servers I currently see are:
Orono: Gaia,
UMPI: Aurora,Polaris
UMM: Cappy,Futura
