Calnet and AWS announcement #2

CalNet supporters and developers,

[A follow-up to our message of June 15th]: This message is to announce that
although we now have over 60,600 synchronized passphrases between our old
and new CalNet Kerberos servers, a little over 900 CalNet users still do
not have passphrases that are compatible with the new service.

As a result, beginning today an updated alert to *only* those remaining
CalNet ID customers with non-compliant passphrases will notify of the need
to change their passphrase to a compliant version before August 1, 2007.
Starting August 1st, the AWS pages will *not* allow access to applications
for CalNet ID holders with a non-compliant passphrase. The web message to
be received *only* by those failing the automatic synchronization process
will be as in the appended text version at the end of this notice.

The new passphrase requirements are described here:

    https://calnet.berkeley.edu/passphrase-requirements.html

To repeat, once a passphrase satisfies these requirements, the AWS will no
longer display the August 1st deadline reminder to the CalNet ID holder.

For questions about the CalNet service or this notice, please write to:

     calnet-admin_at_lists.berkeley.edu

Thank you,

The CalNet Team
