Entered by twenex on Thu Jun 12 19:48:29 UTC 2003:

M-Net is down. Attempted to login just after 1900 UTC but there was no reply
over telnet.

28 responses total.

Whose fault is that, twenex?

#2 of 28 by twenex on Thu Jun 12 20:17:16 2003:

Cause as yet unknown.

Don't shoot the messenger.

Signed,

Your humble chronicler.

Hmm; I just logged in using SSH.  Uptime says 20 some hours.

might have been wwnet network problems with a panic sometime later on.

re 8 telnet to m-nets up!

#12 of 28 by md on Fri Jun 27 14:03:19 2003:

I can't log onto mnet anymore because I keep getting this security 
alert.  Something about a "certificate," whatever that is, issued 
by "roots@arbornet.org," whoever "roots" is.  

No big loss, sadly.  I did however want to point out that Strom 
Thurmond died yesterday, so somebody should go check the knutz cf and 
see who won the "Forgotten But Not Gone" contest.  jerryr now owes him 
or her 1,000,000 gribblies, as I recall.

I've never even heard of the knutz cf

furs guessed 7/4/03 so she is the closest. she was only one week off, 
that isnt bad

#16 of 28 by md on Fri Jun 27 20:07:09 2003:

Cool!  Please make the announcement in that item, if you haven't 
already done so.

#17 of 28 by md on Fri Jun 27 20:08:35 2003:

...and tell jerryr to cough 'em up.

#18 of 28 by slynne on Sat Jun 28 04:09:04 2003:

ok. and btw, just ignore the certificate stuff and you can log in just 
fine

#19 of 28 by md on Sat Jun 28 13:38:01 2003:

I can't.  It generates a security alert that says "The name on the 
security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the 
site."  

Anyway, too bad about Strom Thurmond.  The world has lost a very, um, 
old man.

#20 of 28 by slynne on Sat Jun 28 14:16:42 2003:

huh. it doesnt give you an option to proceed? What browser do you use?

#21 of 28 by md on Sat Jun 28 23:38:36 2003:

It's funny, I can telnet in but I can't use Backtalk without getting 
that security alert.  But telnetting is so infra dig.

#22 of 28 by slynne on Sun Jun 29 17:38:42 2003:

It's because tonster did something to the certificates. I dont know 
what. send him email, I am sure he'll explain it to you.

#23 of 28 by md on Sun Jun 29 21:27:50 2003:

No thanks.  If Einstein ever fixes it, please enter something about it 
here and I might give it another try.  ;-)

#24 of 28 by slynne on Sun Jun 29 22:26:46 2003:

fair enough

#145 al-Mighty (tonster) Thu, Jun 26, 2003 (22:04):
 backtalk.arbornet.org and backtalk-devel.arbornet.org are now encrypted!
  Most of you will likely notice that you're getting redirected to an IP
 address.  This will happen over the next couple of days until DNS is
 fully propogated.  Eventually, it'll be the
 https://backtalk.arbornet.org and https://backtalk-devel.arbornet.or
g
 that it always was.

 Also, if you don't want to accept the warnings about unknown CA's (we
 sign our own certificates), you can download and install our root CA
 certificate into your browser at http://www.arbornet.org/ssl/ca.crt.
 Let us know if you have questions!

There's what's going on, from the sytem problems item.

#26 of 28 by slynne on Tue Jul 1 15:41:35 2003:

That is too much trouble probably.

#27 of 28 by asddsa on Wed Oct 8 02:33:37 2003:

M-net seems to be down.

scribbling is annoying.
