[Unified-mailman] Fwd: Cogen server has been compromised

[Ian Waitz]

Unified Students,

For the problem set that will be posted today, there is a thermo 
problem where you are asked to record and analyze data from the MIT 
Cogen plant (via a web interface).  I just received the note below 
about an issue with the server.  For now, assume that the homework 
problem is still due next Tuesday  -- I will let you know when I 
learn more.

Thanks,

- Ian
