Russ, dial 761-5041 instea dof 761-3000. I never have download problems with
the former and usually do with the latter (with Kermit). Most people don't
seem to be downloading so they tolerate the bad modem.

I keep getting Grex's bible quote rejection messages when trying to send
someone mail from here. This surprises me, since I thought the spam filters
only operated on incoming mail. Any ideas what I should change in my
message to get it to slide through?

Send mail to postmaster. Include a copy of the bounce message. There
are lots of things that can cause bible quotes, and yes, most of them
apply to mail of any origin, internal or external.

A postmaster (according to Pushkin) used to run a posting station where you
got fresh horses and a driver, and sometimes a meal and a bed. People were
always mad at them when they were out of fresh horses. I don't know when they
started to also handle mail.

In party, we suspect Grex is under a crude attack at the moment.

I gave up before getting a response here, and sent the mail with another
email account.

When I got into the queue this morning I started at 625. Would this
be classed as a DoS attack?

One of the reasons for the 'l' command in the wait queue, as well as
"fixwait -l", is to make it obvious what IP address is being used for
such an attack.

I'm not sure whether this is a system problem, or an unavoidable thing, but
the queue doesn't work when I'm trying to SSH in. If there isn't an open
PTY, I get a "PTY unavailable" message and have to try to connect again,
instead of going into the queue. Do I need to change some of my settings?

#33 of 33: by Ipse (md) on Mon, Jul 8, 2002 (12:19):
I'd make some popcorn and turn on the TV.
(then it goes to the next item new response and doesnt give me the title of
#0 :(
so i type 32 to see why md wants to make some popcorn and turn on the tv and
look:
Respond or pass? 32
#33 of 33: by Ipse (md) on Mon, Jul 8, 2002 (12:19):
I'd make some popcorn and turn on the TV.
the next item after that is always fine.
does this happen to anyone else?

Looks to me like a pager issue. Did you try "!resize"?

re 47
This is because the way ssh goes to locate/allocate pty.
due to limited ptys and the system for managing them when they
are all in use, ssh should do "auth the user" then put
them in the queue until there is a pty available.
imho.

That would be cool. Of course, I've only run into this once, because there's
almost always an open pty.

I asked about this once, and was told that the hack necessary to make ssh go
into the queue would be too evil to live.

Given how rarely the queue is full, I guess there's no point in worrying about
it, then.

The terminal server seems to be hosed tonight - I was unable to dial in.

I was unable to dial in from about 5:30 Tuesday afternoon continuing until
my last attempt at 7:30 this morning. I'm fortunate that I've got a temp
position that gives me telnet access.

I also couldn't dial in. Modem connects, then nothing.

Looks like the terminal server is indeed down. I'll try to get to the
Pumpkin in the next hour and look at it.

Seems to be the coax section of our LAN that's the culprit. Only thing left
there is the terminal server. I'll put in one of my hubs if I can't find
something else to use here on the Pumpkin.

Fixed. I stole a 10base-T transceiver from a development machine.
