Hi, 

I was given an NRAO lustre account to process  a DDT TOO observation. 
I'm logging to the NRAO machine remotely from my computer (I'm not at NRAO). 
When trying to run aips I get the following error: 

Tape assignments: 
   Tape 1 is Exabyte 8500 (dual density) on PHECDA
   Tape 2 is DAT on PHECDA
   Tape 3 is real time FILLM (1) on PHECDA
   Tape 4 is real time FILLM (2) on PHECDA
   Tape 5 is REMOTE
   Tape 6 is REMOTE

                       ------------------------------
2008-10-22     There is a not-so-new way to kill and restart
               the TPMON programs.  It is
                    /usr/local/bin/tpmon-restart
               which may be run by anyone from any account.

                       ------------------------------
2000-06-15  The aips account is no longer accessible to users.
            AIPS_ROOT is /home/AIPS.  Visitors will be assigned
     temporary visitor accounts with full AIPS access.

                       ------------------------------
  The remaining members of the AIPS group can be contacted directly by
  email to daip at nrao.edu.  The contact people in Socorro are Amy

Any idea what is wrong and how can I run AIPS properly?
