Conferencing systems now seem to mostly be based on some kind of
database system. Usually MySQL, but that's mainly because it's so
widely available -- if all you have is a hammer, everything starts to
look like a nail. ;)

(Confer U was based on gdbm, IIRC.)

It was the port to Unix, yes. It was based on WMU's port to VMS, Confer V.

Grex is inaccessible via ssh, and the web interface is excruciatingly
slow. What's going on?

I recall its accessible via ssh1, although I only have an ssh2 client so
can't use that.

It takes over 1 minute to load a new page in Backtalk. I cannot
establish an ssh connection at all; it times out before connecting.
Doesn't anyone even know that something is wrong?

See coop item 105 resp 73 as to (maybe) why network connections were slow.

It looks like a vandal was misbehaving; its processes were killed off around
17:30.

My sister Meg (and I) would love it if Grex didn't interpret her
"mintsol.com" as spam. I would like to be able to receive her email.
Can this be fixed?

Yesterday, 2004.08.13, from about 2pm-6pm backtalk was extreamly slow,
also Telnet and SSH connections failed. Backtalk was so slow IE could
not cope, but Netscape could.

Any reason for not being able to phone in Friday and early
today, while the system has been up for 26 days?

Looks like we had someone using up lots of resources. A staff member was
able to visit the Pumpkin and kill off the user's processes.

I get the following message when logging in using ssh-1 from Terminal in Mac
OS 10.3.2
Warning: Server lies about size of server public key: actual size is 767 bits
vs. announced 768.
Warning: This may be due to an old implementation of ssh.
The connection works OK thereafter, so what is the significance of this
warning?
