Gack!

2003-10-20 17:44:20.644197+02 by Dan Lyke 3 comments

Hey, Meuon, I appear to have just lost SSH into my colo box. Since everything from my laptop in is encrypted, this is a moderately big deal. Did y'all have a reboot and I'm suddenly at the whims of someone's idea of what a good hosts.deny is, are you mucking about with your router, or did I get rooted?

Gulp.

[Update: Call off the panic, it's only semi-serious...]

Update: Hmmm... I can get in from my Windows machine at work using PuTTY, which presumably is v1. Weirdness. Don't appear to be rooted, digging further.

Nope, did not block SSH here..

It's funny, you know I check Flutterby almost as often as my e-mail.. Hmm.. Maybe I need to download a life. :)

Yep, I realized that you'd check this, and it was going to take me a while to convert my laptop back to not encrypting mail. Don't know what it was, I've been doing a lot of package upgrading recently so I'll bet something got restarted with something else not restarted, I rebooted and everything seems to work again.
