Seems like logon or telnet que announcement should show up
very quickly. Otherwise it just looks like more GREX down time.
Don't know if modem connected to a dead system or not.
Don't know if I made my modem/procomm less verbose than it could
be. Do some modems/tel-packages give English "Connected" messages?

Working on that, tpryan. Trouble is, there isn't much that can be done.

Tried to telnet to grex a few minutes ago. After waiting in the
queue for a bit, received the login prompt. It took my id and
password, displayed the motd and a 'no mail' message, and then
dumped me back to the login prompt. Tried logging in again at
that point, with the same result. After a third try with the
same result, I gave up. (I'm using Backtalk now, which appears
to be working fine.)

Hmmm...now and then I get dumped back into a login prompt after logging
on. I always get on on the second login, though. What's is a core dump
file called (though I would probably recognize one if I saw one....).

Whoever put up the Welcome to Grex! message that comes
after inital connection to the terminal server for dialups, Thank
You. However, if I keep on getting disconnected soon after getting
that message, I could lose the GREX habit real easy now.

earlier today would get a message of no connection, after connecting.
First time or two I thought it was at my end, but finally the lit
bulb lit and decided it was elsewhere. Waited, then this evening
connected. When I try to quit, keep getting a new log in sigh.
So, just disconnect. Again,
thanks for those who keep it going. I do appreciate the kindly
service.

tried to get a newuser logged in today .. by direct dial.
he say the 11 of 23 ....waiting and said 'forget it.'
DIRECT DIAL?????? wha??????
i think the above situation is an artifact of 'thoughtlessness.'
oh, it was ...it doesn't matter when it was, it was a
DIRECT CONNECTION, for silly sakes.

I keep hearing everybody going on and on about how horrible the queue on the
dial-up lines is. This isn't going to be a popular statement, but I don't
see what the big deal is. I don't dial in, so the queue has been there for
a long time as far as I'm concerened. I'm used to it, and it really doesn't
seem like a big deal. It does seem a little bad from a resource utilization
perspective, since we're paying for the dial-up lines, but that's a financial
issue, not a huge annoyance that should be causing people to start calling
other people idiots.

This may or may not be something.
I tried several times this afternoon to logon, and it just didn't happen.
I dialed the -5041 number first, it connected, then after 2 minutes of
being idle and not reporting a thing, it bumped me off. The same thing
happened on -3000. This was about 14:00 today. I then decided that was down
for some reason or other and turned the computer off. Now fast forward to
17:00; and I got the same thing, only getting booted off after 30 seconds of
connection. In desparation, I tried the experimental modem and got right on.
I think the dialin I got in on was -9546.
Hope that was complete enough.

I think Grex was down for a while this afternoon.
Dialing the 5041 number won't get you anything different than 3000 at this
point, execept access to fewer lines. All the modems are running at 14.4.

Grex *was* down from early afternoon to after 5:00 (when I was able to
stop by and reboot it).
We're not intentionally leaving the telnet queue in place. Right now
I'm waiting to see if we have a spare power supply from another
staffer's basement. Friday I'll have time to put one in, if available.

I tried to dial in direct, and while it connected (ie., the modem picked up)
it did not give me anything on the screen. I tried a couple of the dial-in
lines and they did the same thing, so I tried telnetting and here I am. Can't
really tell ya more about it than that. Hope it helps.

Dialing the 5041 number got me a very different effect just now (1:30pm)
I dialed 5041, got connected and waited 5 minutes (by the software timer) with
no response, ie login: prompt.
I hung up, dialed 3000 and had no wait, no queue and less than 2 seconds till
the login: prompt.
