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.

I'll check it on my way downtown in a little while.

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.

Happened to me again a few minutes ago.

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

3000 still answers, no still response. Got in on 5041.

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.

Today I noticed something strange:
polytarp ttyp0     8:28pm     1     32         w
newuser  ttyp0     5:13pm     1     32         w

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

I've reprogrammed the bulk of the modems (couldn't get to the ones in use when
I was doing it.)  Any problems lately?  Dialup has been working fine for me
the last couple of days.

Re #75:  You mean you don't just kick users off when they're in your
way?  What kind of a sysop are you?  :)

Was Grex down for quite a while yesterday?  Dialin got the message from the
termserver & then hung up.  Telnet in simply got connection refused.

I was online and got the message from woot@grex.cyberspace.org that grex was
'sicxk' and was immediately going offline, I think it was mid-evening.
Today lynx will not access any sites but the grex home page on lynx -
presumably grex is not connected to the world except by phone.

the motd says it was something to do with the mail.  I guess grex is
vulnerable to being attacked via someone setting up a .forward file
and forwarding some giant mailing list through here, or something

Lynx is now working over the net again.

Is it possible to customize the colors in backtalk? Whenever I used to 
read Agora using the pistachio interface, it used to have a very nice 
color scheme. Then, today, for no apparent reason, the background color 
changed to a kind of weird pale green that totally clashes with the 
green color of the buttons and it is icky. I want to change the 
background color back to the nice muted yellow it was before. Can I do 
that?
