Grex System Problems - Spring 2004
| 
Mar 21 03:03 UTC 2004 |
This item is for system problems. If something on Grex isn't working
right (line noise on a modem, weird behavior from a program, etc.),
this is the place to announce it. Except for security holes. If you
find a hole in system security, mail information about it to "staff".

Grex appeared to suffer a loss of Internet connectivity between 7am and 8am
this morning. I dropped by the Pumpkin this afternoon, our DSL modem claimed
to have a link, but I power cycled it anyway.
We appear to be back. All the modem users had the place to themselves all
day. :)

What I had bookmarked once upon a time as "Welcome to the grex status page",
i.e. where to find out if grex were down, with URL
http://grexstatus.nether.net/ , appears to be now a "home" screen for
Jared. There is nothing about grex on that page at all...

Having issues with ssh, this is what I got when I tried to connect
with PuTTY a couple minutes ago:
Server refused to allocate pty
Warning: no access to tty; thus no job control in this shell...

stream 2 improperly redirected
stty: TCGETS: Operation not supported on socket
stty:

I get that once in a while with ssh. I think it's because the ssh server on
Grex doesn't know how to handle the telnet queue.

I have been connecting via telnet using MacSSH in rlogin mode (the client
has only ssh2 otherwise). Today, however, I encountered a queue, and was
disconnected when the queue reached zero (many times). I recall this
happened another time when there was a queue. Is there an explanation, or
cure (perhaps by setting parameters in the client) to fix this?

Try "stty 9600" on the client end before connecting to grex. Grex is
entirely too trusting of tty parameters from random clients... I'm
surprised though that you're using rlogin...

There was discussion about this before. Since Grex doesn't support
SSH2, and Rane's telnet client can't do SSH1, rlogin is about his only
alternative.

The client also supports rsh, rexec and "raw TCP". Any of those options?

Not really. rsh might work but it wouldn't give you any advantages over
rlogin.

What has happened to port-fwd (SSH) thru Grex - worked
well before, now I get disconnected and/or it just
freezes.

It was intentionally disabled, as it's against policy and has other
problems. If you want to discuss the technical issues, you might want
to ask in the garage conference, but you might first want to check coop
and look for past discussions on port forwarding, or enter a new item to
discuss port forwarding and sshd.

Problem doesn't seem to be my ISP. I get halfway through the agora and the
keyboard doesn't respond on grex. The disconnect seems to happen after about
four minutes of no throughput.
[logging off on my own this time]
