     LCSC Converts Internet Connection to IRON warrior  at:  3/8/2010  


 




 



Lewis-Clark State College will be upgrading its connection to the Internet on March 12th.  LCSC has contracted with the Idaho Regional Optical Network (IRON) for a high speed connection that will provide LCSC with direct access to research networks such as the National Lambda Rail.  IRON’s goal is to create an ultra-high speed network for Idaho and its immediate neighborhood that will improve communication and research opportunities.



 



LCSC’s network administrators will perform the conversion to IRON on March 12th starting at 5:00 p.m.  This project requires a full network outage, which may extend through the day on Saturday. 



 



After Saturday, computers outside of the LCSC network might not be able to connect to LCSC resources for several days as the world’s domain name servers are updated with information about our new connection.



 



LCSC currently has a 20 megabit connection to the Internet.  Connecting to IRON will provide faculty, staff, and students a 100 megabit connection for enhanced educational opportunities.



 



LCSC IT is asking that everyone help facilitate the conversion by turning off computers and printers when leaving campus on March 12th. 



 



The following is information taken from IRON’s website:



 



Prior to establishing IRON, Idaho's research and higher education institutions worked independently to solve their individual network infrastructure needs. In addition, there was no cost-effective solution to connect secondary institutions. IRON creates a dynamic virtual environment and provides higher education institutions and research institutions with the ability to collaborate.



 



The Idaho Regional Optical Network, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation formed to provide an economical high-speed optical network infrastructure for the State of Idaho. IRON's mission is to facilitate, build and operate a powerful optical infrastructure targeting Idaho's research, education, health care and government entities to enable research, teaching, learning, clinical and civil collaborations throughout the state. Moreover, IRON is Idaho's connection to research and education (R&E) networks throughout the United States and around the world.

     Important changes coming to published Google Docs warrior  at:  9/18/2009  

We wanted to let you know about some important changes around published documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.



 



In a few weeks, documents, spreadsheets and presentations that have been explicitly published outside your organization and are linked to from a public website will be crawled and indexed, which means they can appear in search results you see on Google.com and other search engines. There is no change for documents published inside your organization or shared privately.



 



If a user does not want their published Docs to be crawled, then the user must unpublish them by doing the following:



 



- Go to the 'Share tab'


- For documents and spreadsheets, choose 'Publish as web page'. For presentations choose 'Publish/embed'


- Click on the button that says 'Stop publishing'



 



For more details, please see this Help Center article: http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=60781



 



This is a very exciting change as your published docs linked to from public websites will reach a much wider audience of people!



 



Sincerely,



 



The Google Apps Team

     Reminder on Email Phishing Attempts warrior  at:  9/3/2009  
Email phishing scams are becoming numerous. One email scam asks the user to verify their email account to avoid shutdown. IT is able to intercept most responses with the Barracuda SPAM filter, but not all. Users are asked not respond to any email asking to verify your user id or password. These scams are made to look authentic and catch the user off guard. Some emails may address you by name and/or use other identifiers that make the email appear legitimate. Please be assured that IT will NEVER ask users for your passwords in email. As these scams become more ingenious, please keep your guard up and be suspicious of any email asking for sensitive or confidential information. Anyone asking you for personal information by email or telephone is looking to compromise your security. We can expect future attempts to be even more convincing. It is good practice to never respond or reply directly to any email that requests confidential information. Legitimate businesses do not use email asking for confidential information. The helpdesk can help you review suspicious emails.
