As a result of today's Next Generation Network upgrade, access to a small portion of user home directories (aka "S: drives") is unavailable. In addition, access to user and department web directories/volumes will be unavailable for approximately 18 hours.
Please note that user data was NOT affected and web sites being served from both user and department web directories/volumes are still available from the Internet. Only a user's ability to EDIT the aforementioned sites has been affected.
This interruption in access is necessary to restore proper directory permissions. For most users this service interruption will require no action at all. However, if you have set any custom permissions for accessing your S: drive, user web or department web directories, those permissions will need to be reset once service has been restored.
If you require assistance with resetting your permissions, please contact the IT Help Desk at 341-HELP (4357).
