I got up and six and realized the board was down so I contact osuosl and it was four their time and none of the system admins got in until 8.

This is an explanation of the problem


Again, my apologies.

I am glad things are up again. I missed my MUB fix this morning

Yeah, me too! I've been checking the board and waiting in the irc for four hours straight. Can I go back to bed now? lol

Ok, the board went down again. Turned out what I quoted earlier wasn't the problem. This is from my convo with cshield in osuosl

So we may experience some more problems until they get that fixed.

hmmm...udp floods? are we being DoS'ed?

(that's a question to ask them, obviously)

dom0 is the host operating system .. so maybe they are being dos'ed

looks like we've been rebooted once or twice :(

Yes we were. They told me that in the channel.

News report said that the Internet was being attacked today. An attempt was made to take down 13 backbone servers.

Yikes!!!

I missed mub all day

So you're saying that I can't blame tyme or paul?

of course not. we can always blame them regardless of the circumstances.

ciao!

Well I didn't want to mention it before but it was tyme's fault. You see, he'd been celebrating for his birthday so much he got quite smashed and he ssh'ed into the server and broke something. They said you could actually smell beer coming from the server!

i do not recall that...

ok, that is proof enough that tyme was drunk enough that he cant remember it. it is definitely tyme's fault!!!!

ciao!

back again
