Ftoomsh's relocation

If all goes well, Ftoomsh will have been relocated to its own network
(ProgSocNet :-)) by the time you read this. We will still be connected
via SOCSNet for the time being, but our router (Scooby) will be
between SOCSNet and ProgSocNet.

Sadly, the DNS has been setting TTL to 3600000, meaning that cached
DNS entries throughout the Internet are going to take a long while (2
months?) to propogate. In the interim, reach Ftoomsh by connecting
to 138.25.6.1.

(N.B. machines within socs.uts will know about the change immediately,
so local connections will be unaffected and email will flow, if
slowly.)

Apologies to those members who pick up their mail from Ftoomsh.
Hopefully a little word of mouth will help here...
