Subject: Major problem in workstation configuration

It seems that someone a long time ago decided give mt8 the same
major and minor device number as ra1a.  This is fine if your
workstation has floppies as ra1 and ra2, but if your workstation
has a second hard disk this can cause major problems as running
tar (or dump) will write over your hard disk.  This is not good.

In case anyone is wondering, the reason kerberos is down is 
because of this.  It should be running again on Monday.
