Mnet also bounced a mail I sent myself there - would the error message be
useful (transient or permanent failure)?  And mnet is currently not allowing
downloading from the web.  (And grex kermit downloads still crash after 12
packets - I had hoped to download something at mnet to see if Kermit works
better there.)  What is the expected timing on installing grex's newer faster
modem bank, just in case it is a grex modem problem causing this?

Re #51: They aren't blocking it, exactly, just intercepting requests on it
and routing them through a proxy.  This is often referred to as a
"transparent proxy" (though it's never entirely 'transparent'.)

Something is wrong with dialup - connects but does not get anything after
that.  (This was reported to me, and I reproduced it a couple of minutes
ago.  Grace (who reported it to me) has no access other than dialup.

I'll check it on my way downtown in a little while.

The problem seems to have fixed itself in the past hour or two.  I had it when
dialing 761-3000 a couple of times, but 5041 was perfectly okay.  They are
both okay now.  Any chance of replacing the old modems soon with the faster
set?

Right, I had the same problem - 761-3000 hung on me, but 761-5041 worked
fine.

Happened to me again a few minutes ago.

Me too.  I'm guessing the modem on 761-3000 is flaky.

3000 still answers, no still response. Got in on 5041.

I thought the modems were on a hunt sequence.

The problem with the modems continues.
Yesterday I checked out whether the inability to download a file of more than
12 packets with Kermit was related to my modem or to something at grex by
downloading 30 packets at m-net without crashing.  So something is wrong with
either the grex modems (or most of them, once in a while it works) or with
the Kermit installation at grex, another reason to replace the modems soon
with the nice faster ones that Dang found a Property Disposition.

(That's rather different from a modem that answers but won't connect you to
the termserver.)

The home page for Grex indicates a continuing tie in an election to the
board of directors of Cyberspace Communications.  My understanding is the
tie described has since been resolved.

Today I noticed something strange:
polytarp ttyp0     8:28pm     1     32         w
newuser  ttyp0     5:13pm     1     32         w

I don't have any idea what's happening.

I've reprogrammed the bulk of the modems (couldn't get to the ones in use when
I was doing it.)  Any problems lately?  Dialup has been working fine for me
the last couple of days.

Re #75:  You mean you don't just kick users off when they're in your
way?  What kind of a sysop are you?  :)

Was Grex down for quite a while yesterday?  Dialin got the message from the
termserver & then hung up.  Telnet in simply got connection refused.

I was online and got the message from woot@grex.cyberspace.org that grex was
'sicxk' and was immediately going offline, I think it was mid-evening.
Today lynx will not access any sites but the grex home page on lynx -
presumably grex is not connected to the world except by phone.

the motd says it was something to do with the mail.  I guess grex is
vulnerable to being attacked via someone setting up a .forward file
and forwarding some giant mailing list through here, or something

Lynx is now working over the net again.
