System Problems Item Mark Unseen   Dec 22 04:13 UTC 2000

This item is for system problems.  If something on Grex isn't working 
right (line noise on a modem, weird behavior from a program, etc.), 
this is the place to announce it.  Except for security holes.  If you 
find a hole in system security, mail information about it to "staff".
74 responses total.

I haven't been able to dial in to grex and make a connection for 2 or 3 days.
The phone answers, but for some reason my modem can't hook up to the grex
modem.  any clues?  I've tried 4 or 5 of the numbers.

I could dial in today on the 5041 line, but not on the 3000 line.

I tried 3000 and 5041 just now.  The phone answers, then disconnects.

Similar problems to the above - get hangup instead of modem's connect
string a couple times on -3000, -3554 worked perfect the first time.

Why was Grex down from Monday afternoon to midday Tuesday?

Dunno why it went down, but we're having a little bit of weirdness when doing
fsck during reboots, and nobody could go bump it loose any earlier.

        What's with not being able to connect via the dial-ups and 
then not being able to telnet from M-net.
        Even now, the terminal servier disconnected by first call.

I've been dialing in fine since Grex came back up.

Grex was not attacked.  It crashed in a mode that required some mothering to
come back up.  For some reason it's been getting unhappy about the /tmp
partition, of all things (that's where worthless temporary files are kept -
it is normally erased on each reboot).  None of the staff was able to get
over there and talk to it for a while.

        Time to scrub /c again: The irc-toys like bnc have all but filled
        the drive.

Noticing a few new features with the backtalk upgrade.  Not really a 
problem, it just takes some getting used to.

First real problem that I've spotted with the new backtalk - while 
using Pistachio to read an item, the title bar says "Grex AgoraAgora 
Conference - Item 4 - Microsoft Internet Explorer"
