That hasn't been my experience. Jan is very active programming things, and
just lately he's done a huge amount of work to get NextGrex up and running.
However, I'm sure he will need the error message from Richard to be able to
duplicate the problem.

I would like to send Jan a loaf of bred in return for his work on Grex, which
I hope will be a duitiful business partner. It's the "yeast" i can do.

Re resp:63: We're not the only site that runs Backtalk, and it *is*
being actively developed by Jan. According to
http://www.unixpapa.com/backtalk/, we're not running the most current
version. Probably he's holding out on doing any major upgrades on the
current system, since it's going to be replaced by NextGrex anyway.

Today it has been taking about a minute to actually send a mail.

And a minute to time out on outgoing telnet. Maybe the mail just got queued?

Yes, it does seem to be the Internet connection. I'm power-cycling the DSL
modem right now. That is, I've turned it off and will turn it back on
shortly.

Re. 64: No offense, Mark, but being in the inner circle makes your
observation perceptively biased. The problems/concerns I brought up
occured some time ago, before Jan's work on NextGrex, of which I
agree, he's been working his buns off with. I look forward to giving
the new system a spin.

rlogin and ssh1 are not working tonight. (I don't try relogin very often,
but tonight ssh1, my usual, wasn't working either, so I'm finally on with
plain old telnet.)

round 20:00 last evening, I was having problems with ssh, too. Also with
ps and top. With ssh, the failure was in the identification exchange,
while with ps and top the problem was allocating memory. I've no idea
what caused the problem, since I couldn't use my usual tools to diagnose
the problem.
I thought a reboot was needed, but an hour and a half later, it was better.
(I couldn't do the re-boot myself.)

re #75: around about that time I tried to log in via ssh, then was
dumped when my shell wouldn't fork for lack of memory.

I appreciate the work being done with Grex... I am fairly new to using this
type of system and would enjoy getting an email explaining how to run a dial
in bbs's type system with one phone number... I have always wanted to run
something like this but on a much smaller scale and more like a bb's.

You mean BBS, I'm sure. I remember the good'ol days of home-run BBS's.
Had one myself called "Get Serious." Unfortunately, I ran it on
limited hours so it never took off.

Does *anybody* run dial-up-only (non-internet) BBS's these days?

Yes, there are still a few of them around. Not very many of them,
since they are quite out-moded by the web chats.

Within the last five minutes mail sending slowed to a crawl, telnet times out,
and lynx won't work. Are we off the net again? Mail to another grexer sends
immediately. (I know because another grexer just emailed me about the
problem).

I got my last spam at around 6 am, so we must be off the net.
