same thing as marcvh noted a few hours ago. grex does not respond to
telnet, and hasnt been responding to telnet all evening, but does
respond to ssh (which Im on currently) and backtalk. why would this
be happening?

Backtalk is crashing nastily for some reason, at least for anonymous access.

Unlike ssh and http, telnet is started out of inetd. For some reason, inetd
was hosed. "kill -HUP" didn't help, so I killed it dead and restarted it.

Thanks Joe! Don't know what grex would do without you.
My friend has no idea how to download Putty for Win98, or even what a file
is. Someone set her up to dial provide.net and use telnet.

Heh, looks like provide.net will be getting a lot of business from
Grexers now.
Now if only I could get their "TurboConnect" to stop dropping calls on
me...

Next time any disk work is done, would it be possible to either
increase the size of the /var partition above 3GB or to put
/var/mail (or /var/spool/mail, or wherever OpenBSD puts it) on
its own partition?

small .exe. just run it.

re #789: you're right -- somehow I overlooked it before..
it'd still be nice to either have a bigger /var or have whatever
keeps filling it up isolated elsewhere..

I got /var down to 67% full by moving stuff over to /grex/zcore.
Hopefully i didn't screw too much up...

Re putty download, my friend has no idea how to download anything. We tried
several times to teach her to download files from grex and gave up. She does
not know what a file is. Or where the files are in the first place. I tried
to draw pictures. Or how to run a program. We set her up to type grex in
order to reach her email here with pine, after turning on the computer.
Someone else managed to set her up with IE and telnet. I tried to explain
how to change from white on black to black on white printing. She lives
several hours bike ride from here and it is snowy out.
