Is there a way for me to create an installation DVD with a different computer (with internet access) that can be used to install AIPS on this unconnected machine, or is that something that has to be generated by NRAO?  Thank you.

I would think that you could simply tar your whole directory structure 
on the open machine (leaving out actual data areas), put the tar file on 
a DVD, and carry it to the protected machine.  Alternatively we do have 
a way of making a DVD which is supported by install.pl.  I have not done 
that in years but there is no reason to believe that I could not do it 
again.

Let me know if you need me to try that.
