    It may require dos only on computer. Therefore, may not get standard
    xcvr messages for a while.

    I visited Bonneville today. It seems that the new firewall that was installe

    I couldn't ping, telnet or ftp using the dial-up network
    configuration there, changed the DNS address and those things worked,
    but the mailer didn't.

    I was asked to leave the project because of heightened security
    due to the Afganistan and Sudan missell retaliations yesterday, so
    couldn't finish troubleshooting.

    When I got back, Todd had relaxed certain security policies
    on the firewall, and the mail from BVA made it, but rather than
    being encapsulated as SMTP packets, the connection made a bunch of
    telnet type packets to encapsulate the mail. This may have incorrectly
    encoded packets were rejected by the firewall.

    kennewick.

 The B2A site code has been configured in the PTAGIS database. 
 The North Flume 400kHz monitors are labeled NORTH and the South Flume
 400kHz monitors are labled SOUTH. The ISO coils (not yet installed) have
 been configured for the site (as separate monitors) and are labled 
 ISO NORTH and ISO SOUTH. The long distance phone carrier problem has
 been fixed (data had not been transmitted because there was a mix up
 changing long distance carriers), so data should be automatically sent in
 now.

 Earl Prentice provided the following on 24-Apr-98:

 On 23 April at 1700, the 400-kHz PIT-tag interrogation system being
 installed at Bonneville Dam's adult collection and monitoring facility 
 became operational.
	   
 In accordance with the operating guidelines, put forth by the 
 fisheries community, the collection and monitoring facility will not 
 be operated on a continues bases without the presence of personnel 
 because of fear of facility flooding.  Data from the new PIT-tag 
 interrogation system will thus only be collected while the facility is 
 occupied.   Since the new system is in a continues operations mode, no 
 additional action is required by facility users.  Data generated by 
 the new system can be obtained through Pacific States Marine Fisheries 
 Commission. 
														 
 In late June two ISO-based interrogation systems will be installed at 
 the site.  In addition present plans call for all systems to be 
 evaluated with tagged fish in July.
