Written by Janaka Jayawardena   
Thursday, 03 November 2011
When we switched our mail servers to support the Maildir
mailbox format some years ago, we performed a code hack

Maildir format mailboxes. This was to ease the
disruptions that pine users would have experienced with

Banner printer names (the names you give for your printers
when printing reports or POs from within Banner) are changing.  
We have gone through and labelled ALL the MCECS Banner
printers that we know of of with the new names.
Please check on the Banner printers you use often, note the name
on the label and start using that name when doing Banner printing.  
We are trying to get the new names in circulation right now because
OIT will discontinue the old names sometime soon.

Written by Janaka Jayawardena   
Friday, 17 December 2010

PSU is constantly being barraged by prolonged spearphishing attacks. Phishing is where the attacker tries to trick you into giving out sensitive information. Spear phishing is where the e-mails are specifically tailored to a target audience. It relies on social engineering the victim to fall for the e-mail and give up some information the attacker wants. Don't be one of those victims.
