Cool. This Comcast user got here by the port 8080 route. Just
decided to try it to see if someone had set it up, and lo and behold
Jan had done it.

Hm, maybe I should offer them some consulting services. Blocking port 80?
Wow, they've got some real winners working there.

What does port 80 normally connect to on grex or other systems?

Grex is bouncing mail from "localhost.arbornet.org".

re web proxy (#37 et al): @home used a transparent proxy. it would not
be surprising for comcast to use one as well, though it appears that
it isn't configured properly, which, isn't too surprising given the
time-frame during which they had to push it into production.
re #38: having multiple resolvers on the same subnet is typically done
for (client) loading reasons, which are completely separate issues from
what one would want of authoritative servers. (this isn't to say that
comcast idiocy might not be the prime mover.)

Mnet also bounced a mail I sent myself there - would the error message be
useful (transient or permanent failure)? And mnet is currently not allowing
downloading from the web. (And grex kermit downloads still crash after 12
packets - I had hoped to download something at mnet to see if Kermit works
better there.) What is the expected timing on installing grex's newer faster
modem bank, just in case it is a grex modem problem causing this?

Re #51: They aren't blocking it, exactly, just intercepting requests on it
and routing them through a proxy. This is often referred to as a
"transparent proxy" (though it's never entirely 'transparent'.)

Something is wrong with dialup - connects but does not get anything after
that. (This was reported to me, and I reproduced it a couple of minutes
ago. Grace (who reported it to me) has no access other than dialup.

The problem seems to have fixed itself in the past hour or two. I had it when
dialing 761-3000 a couple of times, but 5041 was perfectly okay. They are
both okay now. Any chance of replacing the old modems soon with the faster
set?

Right, I had the same problem - 761-3000 hung on me, but 761-5041 worked
fine.

Me too. I'm guessing the modem on 761-3000 is flaky.

I thought the modems were on a hunt sequence.

The problem with the modems continues.
Yesterday I checked out whether the inability to download a file of more than
12 packets with Kermit was related to my modem or to something at grex by
downloading 30 packets at m-net without crashing. So something is wrong with
either the grex modems (or most of them, once in a while it works) or with
the Kermit installation at grex, another reason to replace the modems soon
with the nice faster ones that Dang found a Property Disposition.

(That's rather different from a modem that answers but won't connect you to
the termserver.)

The home page for Grex indicates a continuing tie in an election to the
board of directors of Cyberspace Communications. My understanding is the
tie described has since been resolved.

I don't have any idea what's happening.
