puzzled?  !tel xxxxx
tel: Panic - Unable to find your tty (ttyq5) in /etc/utmp
!                                                          


(say, is this unusual?)

Got hangups on -3000 and -5041 dialing in just now.  (-3554 worked.)
The modems played a few second, then *click* - no "CONNECT...", no
"Welcome to Grex...".

Basically, the ttyte thing and the tel thing are signs that the utmp file
is messed up.  Some energetic staff member should fix it.  I'm not energetic.

I'm also getting "Authorization Failed" from Backtalk.  Glad to know it's not
just me.

Bad participation file.  /a problem?

There is a login queue, but there are under 40 users logged in.  
This seems to have happened to me several times today.  ??

I got a long queue, but it went from 22 to 21 to 10 to 2 to on.  In rather
rapid succession.  I thought that was a little odd...

Really bad lag right now.

resp:58, resp:67 :: today it's 35 users on Grex and a queue of 9.
This isn't the way the system is supposed to work: it's like putting up 
a unnecessary FULL sign.

I've noticed this problem too.

It's something staff can fix when it occurs, but only Marcus would know the
long-term problem/solution.

Could be a denial-of-service attack, I suppose.  The queue does
serialize actually opening a pty, so if several requests come in "at
once", the extra people could end up in the queue even though there are
apparently empty slots.

(net connections have been choppy and stuttered over the past few hours.
dunno if it's just Grex or if it's actually this end of the net.)
