On February 11th odin.cc.pdx.edu was shutdown.

Odin.cc.pdx.edu was replaced on February 11, 2000. Its replacment is a newer, faster, more user-friendly environment. The replacement's name is "odin.pdx.edu". All old Odin accounts have been moved over to the new Odin, and your files and mail are available on both.

The new odin, odin.pdx.edu, has been in place for since June 1999 and has been in use by thousands of users. The platform has proven itself to be solid and ready for the upgrade.

On February 11th, all service names for the old Odin, odin.cc.pdx.edu, were forwarded to the new Odin's corresponding service names. The list below contains all of service name changes.

Special Notes:

  • The old "yourlogin@odin.cc.pdx.edu" e-mail address will still work, but you can now use "yourlogin@pdx.edu" also. This change shortens your e-mail address and should make it easier for people to remember.

    If you are subscribed to any mailing lists with your old e-mail, you may need to resubscribe with your new e-mail address. Some mailing lists will reject any messages coming from a different e-mail address other than the one than the one you subscribed with.

  • All user's files and mail spool are shared between the old ODIN and the New ODIN.

    Example: if your PSU login ID is "joesc" then your e-mail of "joesc@odin.cc.pdx.edu" and "joesc@pdx.edu" will both go to the same mail spool. Your files will not be different between the new ODIN and the old ODIN.

  • The operating systems are different between the new ODIN and the old ODIN. If you have compiled any programs on the old ODIN then you will need to recompile them on the new ODIN

  • For Advanced users: The new ODIN is actually two servers. When you log in to "odin.pdx.edu" you will be placed on one of the servers in "Round Robin" sequence. To see who is logged on to both machines type: "rwho -a".
