Grex System Problems - Fall 2015/Winter 2016

This item is for system problems. If something on Grex isn't working
right (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 directly to "staff".

My browser is telling me grex is unsafe. I told it that slynne and zulu
are gone but it insisted that I proceed with caution.

Oh. We need to renew the certificate, probably.

Hi there.
It seems that grex is still using OpenBSD 5.0. That's
too old.
It would be nice to have latest OpenBSD running on
grex, maybe the next 5.9 version.

What exactly are the criteria for "too old?" Seems to be working perfectly
fine...

We've talked about this repeatedly for the last several years. Our goal
is to migrate to FreeBSD. That requires more time than staff currently
have to devote. So we are in a holding pattern and leaving what works
alone. Just updating OpenBSD to a newer version would require more
staff time than we have right now (local applications would likely need
updating). If we were to do anything we'd rather put that time toward
FreeBSD.
