That's OK, we've turned on the Ping Pong flag on Grex also.  ;)

I just got a finger response from them, I assume all is well now?

Not if my experienceof half an hour ago has been repeated often of late.

        I'm getting 1 second pings from here, but interrupting my direct 
        dial to mnet reports no carrier, rather than busy..

        I submit there is another "oopsie".

        Crash Go The Chariots.... Again. *sigh*

As I write this, M-Net has been down since sometime Thursday.
Does anyone know what's wrong this time?

   it was up a short while ago, but crashed around 5 pm. i'm not sure what
the reason for yesterday's crash was. today, the load averages seemed very
high prior to the crash.

        Is is dead to everyone or just non pciking up the phones again?

It seems to be dead completely.  Out of 3 phone numbers, none are
picked up and it's also dead via Internet.

        It was up sporadically yesterday and today

        now, no dice

        no clue

just talked to linda and she says that it's down and can't be rebooted until
a root is contacted.  Apparently it freezes at the quote script and we know
how to fix it, but can't fix it without the root password...so right now, we
wait...

        Out little electronic miscreant just responded with
        messages about rebuilding the file system.

        Sunday; 1427 hours..

        Tried "arbornet.org", 206.84.193.2 and 206.62.39.57 from coast..

        None of them worked, so I tried the dialins... First I got the
        infamous "no carrier", then it started reporting "busy".

        Yeah, I'd say m-net has a few problems...

Still down.  But, the goodnews is...they were up sometime since this morning.
My mail got forwarded to my other account sometime today.  Maybe that is a
good sign...then again maybe not.

Still down...any guesses??

        yeah, I guess it's time to find a new mail-point, eh?

yea, I've got an account at phish.nether.net.  They support pop mail.  That
is how I usually check mine.  But, you have to be familiar with Unix to use
it.

        maaannn.. what's worse..? the dead sarcasm or nether as the
        antichrist..?

        geezus

I'm not sure.  Although a friend told me that m-net was up for a while last
night.  If they're down for so long it better be for a nice hardware upgrade
or something worthwhile.  We can only hope for the best.  Hopefully our old
friend (m-net) will pull through this one...

I hear the imperial march

back up...but no mail!  It sends fine but isn't holding or forwarding any
mail...what gives?

email is being parsed *in* at a liveable & fixed rate. email going
*out* is not (and never has been( a problem.
  
of course, forwarding doubles the load... why not have it go directly
instead of bouncing in and out of a couple of staggering systems?
