Not a transition. bama.ua.edu is broke. Don't know the switch settings. For 
 a while either would work. Darren posted the transition years ago at the 
request  of the network folks. It started out in 86 as bama.ua.edu and stayed 
that way  thru several migrations and hosts. For awhile it was available on 
Ibmlink under  Hardware
and Almaden pulled the plug without telling anybody.
 
It may come back but listserv.ua.edu is the recommended URL.

The  transition wasn't very well publicized.  I needed to update many  
bookmarks.

Of course, they could have registered bama.ua.edu as an  additional domain 
name.

Nostalgia; I can't remember.  Didn't this  list use yet another ua.edu 
domain
many years ago?
