[daip] trying to do more with aips... didnt get anywhere really (fwd)

[Barbara A Williams]

Could you offer some suggestions as to why the installation of aips is
working? This message is really from the system manager who is using me as
the go between to rely messages that I then forward to him.
Any help at this point would be much appreciated.

AipsWiz:
The AIPS Midnight Job is a way to keep your AIPS
AipsWiz: installation up to date.  It is secure, relatively
AipsWiz: easy, and can be done on demand or in a cron job
AipsWiz: (i.e. periodically, daily or weekly or whenever).
AipsWiz: It does require that you have the cvs software
AipsWiz: package installed on your system.

AipsWiz: This script will set up the infrastructure for you
AipsWiz: to be *able* to run the Midnight Job (MNJ), but you
AipsWiz: have the power to make it run or not.

Should you choose to run the Midnight Job, the
'begin date' will be set to 20040319 (format is YYYYMMDD);
This is ONE day before the generation time
of /export/home/aips/31DEC04.tar.gz (if I've subtracted right!)

AipsWiz: ==> If you want a different date, enter it now::
AipsWiz: About to run '/export/home/aips/31DEC04/SUL/SYSTEM/DPA/MAKE.MNJ 20040319'...
AipsWiz: This will generate a fair bit of output.
AipsWiz: Engaging MAKE.MNJ...
