Description

Nanny was graciously loaned to the society by Sun Microsystems Ireland. We recieved the machine in XXX. Nanny was initially intended for use as a firewall has been used for various other things over time. For a long time it sat dormant in the monolith, until its power supply was fixed. Even then, nobody could remember the root or PROM password for it! It was brought back online January 2002. It has since been dismantled.
