What's happening is that "groupie" is now using the IP address that used to
belong to "grex."  I *tried* to tell the terminal server to use the new IP
address for grex, but it doesn't seem to have taken.  I'll try again.

The machine known as "groupie" was known as "grex" until a month ago, BTW.  I
put it back on its old address because we need a name server at that address
until I get the domain name registry updated.

I'll post the full text of its "nologin" file as soon as I can log on to
groupie.

Thank you for your attention to this.

 Similar delays (presumably DNS timeouts) earlier today when launching pine.
 No delay just now.

The full text of groupie's "nologin" file is:

This is NOT grex.  Please use the domain name, not the IP address.

Dial-in Users:  It will take a little bit longer to get the terminal
server properly configured.  We apologise for the inconvenience.

DNS timeouts for LINKS and LYNX
I am posting this only because I see DNS timeouts noted for pine, but there
is no further information.
 Thank you for your attention to this.

If someone has time, could they
please test LINKS access to 
www.google.com
and attempt to "sign on" (even if
you do not have an account).
The link is https and the failure
reports "no route to host."

LYNX still attempts to access old server proxy?
Making HTTP connection to 216.93.104.35
?
Any information on this ?
Thanks (everyone).

BTW, for better or worse, my filled up mailbox, which I can't access *still*
due to the /tmp quota, keeps increasing in size.  So incoming messages
continued to be added to it, even though admonition messages seem to imply
that they won't be.

Could someone please kill the pgreen and erica accounts?
I type bbs and get 'I don't understand "pgreen" and (no conf).
Fronttalk works but I still get this message and one about erica, 2x each.

I have now confirmed that LINKS cannot access any https links;
can this feature be activated/toggled ?
Hope someone can help when there is time.

When I do r n and there are new responses, using fronttalk, it automatically
scrolls to the last page so I lose the first part unless I scroll back up.
I don't recall this happening before - vandalism?  NOt that I have been using
ft until now.

That's what happens when you use less as your pager and you run a twit
filter.  
gelinas
response 586 of 870: Mark Unseen   Jan 28 07:36 UTC 2005

The problem is that the "twit filter" line in your .cfonce has been broken
into three lines.  Rejoin it into one and your problem whould go away.

Killing other people's accoutns will do nothing to make the error you are
seing go away.
keesan
response 587 of 870: Mark Unseen   Jan 28 17:01 UTC 2005

Thanks, that fixed it.  I would not need to edit .cfonce with pico -w if the
twits did not have multiple personalities.  How did you figure this out?
Is there some way to read the last response in an item if it is not new, other
than r, q, then the number of the last response?

The dial-ins are still giving me "This is NOT Grex...".

response 591 of 870: Mark Unseen   Jan 29 05:07 UTC 2005

I used "less" on your .cfonce, Sindi.

In picospan, I use "r X new" and then "-1".  In FrontTalk, I use "r X nor"
and then "-1".

Is anyone else unable to telnet or ssh to grex today?  (I cannot reach
sdf either).
keesan
response 594 of 870: Mark Unseen   Jan 29 14:56 UTC 2005

I reached grex eventually but cannot FTP upload to grex and the telnet lag is
awful. 
top does not reveal any problems.

The system seems REALLY slow, but I don't know what's causing it. Could it
be someone consuimg a lot of resources?

I cannot do an ftp download.  All I see is S.  A few days ago I could not do
an ftp upload.  I am a member with ftp privileges.
