Your reply was that we could have that PC with Debian OS as long as it was on the guest network.<br></div><br><div>Today, we installed Debian on the computer with MAC address 64-00-6A-82-72-D4 and called the computer center help desk in order to have it promptly switched to the guest network, as you said. We got a call back from Johnathan Trexler stating that the system could not be on the guest network and also that it could not even have Debian installed on it. Could this PC be put on the guest network so the collaborators can use the PC. This is imperative to have a network connection to install the software for the tests the collaborators need to run. We would need the network connection as soon as possible because the collaborators are leaving next Monday, August 8.<br></div><br><div>Best regards,<br></div><div>Tyler Lemon<br></div><div>Detector Support Group<br></div><br><br><div style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Here is an update to the help request you submitted.</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">When you reply to THIS message, Please DO NOT include the original text below.</span><br><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Mod Date: 2016/05/25</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Mod Time: 08:53:34 </span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Mod User: kelvin</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Current State: FEEDBACK</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">STATE changed from (RECEIVED) to FEEDBACK. </span><br><br><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">--------------------------------------------------------------</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Tyler,</span><br><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">Sorry to take so long to get back to you, but I was out of town all</span><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0);">last week and am just now seeing this request.
