I searched /tmp for zip files and found the one that I got about 1MB of
yesterday and deleted it. How often is /tmp emptied? (My usual 'ISP' - WCC
- was dead for a while yesterday and I needed DOS xpdf in a hurry but there
is also the free access-4-free.com for such occasions).

I still have the via menu notice that says I have mail, and when I
check it with !pine, I'm told i have zero messages. I checked, as far
as I'm able, with my .login and .cfonse(?) files ,and i can't see ANYTHING
that would cause it. Any suggestions?

lowclass, try "!less /var/mail/lowclass" I think you'll find that the file
is not empty, but it's not something that pine will show you. If the file
is not empty, login reports that you have mail.

Grex keeps freezing up on me. And I think the participation
file got trashed.

Postpone the message at least.

Lynx google: Can't access start file (it did try google.com).
ssh or telnet: Temporary failure in name resolution.
And the only two mails I got were returned when grex could not send them due
to a problem in finding the host. (No spams in at least 12 hours).

I just wandered down to the pumpkin and power cycled the DSL box.
Looks like we're back on the 'net.

Sorry, but as of now we're still off the Net. I can't reach
www.cyberspace.org from either my wife's machine or my own.

Multi-minute lag. It is no longer optional to find a way to
throttle bandwitdh on the DSL link. It is essential.

Massive, crippling network lag. This is the worst I've seen it in a long
time. Are we ever going to get the DSL connection fixed?

Won't the colocation take care of DSL problems?

Yes, it will. Is that planned for the near future?

grex is freezing a LOT for long enough to invoke the idle killer..*excep**
that logging in elsewhere shows no idle time ...

I don't know what is going on. I've had to kill several connections in the
past hour. I can get to another machine in the pumpkin, without problem.
Maybe things have cleared up.

The connection problems seem to extend to incoming mail.
It just took 5 minutes to get the previous line to echo.

Further information:
The lag is on a per-connection basis; while an ssh session is
locked up, I can ping Grex with sub-200 msec ping times and
establish another. So, something is hanging individual
connections. This points to a stack bug or configuration issue.
