Accelerator Subversion Repository Switching to CLASSE Authentication

On Tuesday, January 21st, at 10am, the Accelerator Subversion Repository on accserv will switch from LNS to CLASSE credentials. When this is done, you will authenticate with the repository using the same credentials you use to login to CLASSE computers and services.

If you find you are unable to access the subversion repository after the upgrade has completed, execute the following command and then try again:

rm -rf ~/.subversion/auth/svn.ssl.server/*

For more information on CLASSE Authentication, please see ClasseAuthentication (https://wiki.classe.cornell.edu/Computing/ClasseAuthentication).

For people having problems with Replicon

The following issue was resolved on Saturday, 1/18. https://www.classe.cornell.edu/TimeSheet/replicon should be used for accessing Replicon from on or offsite. Please report any problems to service-classe@cornell.edu.

Some users have reported having to 'reload' the Replicon Web TimeSheet link several times before it displays the sign-on page. When you are using a computer on one of the CLASSE networks you can try this direct link: http://pc6111:81/TimeSheet/replicon

From outside the CLASSE networks, including from Red Rover, you will need to continue using https://www.classe.cornell.edu/TimeSheet/replicon

General network and server maintenance will occur every Tuesday from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM. The CLASSE-IT group will always announce any expected disruptions in our NewsLetter and via CLASSE-IT-NEWS-L, but with the size and complexity of our network there is always the potential for something to go wrong. We will do our best to contain all network maintenance and planned outages to Tuesdays from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM.

Unless other arrangements have been made, CLASSE-managed Windows systems may be updated and rebooted on Tuesday morning at 2:00 AM, so please avoid critical or lengthy operations at that time. For more details, please see SystemExpectations.
