   Geelong & District Water Board
   61-67 Ryrie St.
   Geelong, Victoria 3220

   Directions: There is a reception desk at the front door of the building.
   The person at the desk will direct people to the appropriate place.


   Parking: Parking at the Board non-existent (due to being in the CBD).
	    There is a public multi-storey car park a couple of hundred
	    meters away in Geringhap St.

	    Coming from the highway, drive past the Water Board
	    building, the next crossroad is Geringhap St. Turn left
	    and the car park will be visible just past the next set
	    of lights.

   Since the meeting room houses a Barco projector that will accept RGB
   output from SPARCstations, we are be able to project graphics based
   presentations onto a fairly large screen.

	SUG-M bulletin board

2:15pm	Special Site Facilities
	A description of the activities at the board and the special

2:45pm Epoch: NFS file server
	This machine provides an extremely large amount of NFS file
	space using a mixture of technologies including optical disks
	and magnetic disk. Files are automatically moved to optical
	media if they are not accessed after a while. This allows it to
	provide what appears to the users to be a very large file space
	in a cost effective manner.
