Re: WLN online index!




Hi Teresa,

I'm not sure what the problem was since that index is getting some
heavy, heavy use from others. There was a time this morning for a few
moments when our OWL techie had the server down while she worked on
it, but then it was back up again.

Here are the addresses for the index and our OWL homepage, and let me
know if you're still having problems:

WLN index: http://owl.english.purdue.edu:591/

home page: http://owl.english.purdue.edu

Again, let me know if you're still getting those irritating DNS
messages.
