Handle Server

The WRLC handle server prefix is 1961. 

The prefix is renewed each year in January.  

The contact for renewal is hdladmin@cnri.reston.va.us.  (Most recently this was Christy Short.)

The last renewal in January 2024 was $50.00.

Trouble shooting:

If the handle server doesn't restart on reboot, check the lock file. 

If lock file was not removed on shutdown/crash, it will need to be removed before the handle server can restart.
