Up and down...
 As you've probably noticed, we've been under some kind of DDOS attack for the past few days. The hosting company's probably tired of me asking them to restart the machine. You'll notice it first when Postgresql 'can't connect.' Shortly after that, I can't connect over ssh at that point to restart and I have to submit a help ticket. I'm trying to trace what's being attacked. The @rantburg.com email server is now shut down and may remain so for good. I use my fred . pruitt @ gmail . com address for virtually everything and fighting off people trying to relay over it to send spam is a minor pain in the sitter. It's also something to overload with connections. I'll keep working on it to try and fix the problem. Faithful Penelope is a pretty robust server, so it takes a lot to overload her. The problem is finding which logs hold the evidence, then trying not to break something else while I fix the problem. Posted by: Fred 2014-03-22 |
