Motzarella not missing abpo...
I believe it was Steve that noticed this. Just checked again this morning, and it is still there. You might want to subscribe to the motzarella.* newsgroups so you can look for announcements and ask questions when something like that happens. Sometimes a newsadmin has to revert to a backup copy of the list of newsgroups temporarily to resolve an issue. Sometimes a newsadmin has to audit the articles in the news spool to resolve an issue. Unless the news servers are setup as a redundant pool this can lead to the appearance that a newsgroup was dropped. As abpo was added to motzarella about a month ago... it will be towards the end of the list when it comes time for recovery. For added joy, every now and then some of the news readers fail to authenticate upon reconnecting to the news server. When running a news server for an ISP, it pays to have as few disruptions as possible (Not that any big ISP I've encountered could actually manage it). Glitches like that lead to people calling support and increase the head count required in the call center. If you're an accurate typist, you can do the following for problem determination. for something you type for something expected from the news server telnet news.motzarella.org nntp 200 news.motzarella.org InterNetNews NNRP server INN 2.4.5 (20080614 snapshot) ready (posting ok). authinfo user youruserid 381 PASS required authinfo pass yourpassword 281 Ok group alt.binaries.pictures.orchids 211 181 1 181 alt.binaries.pictures.orchids quit 205 . And you're then returned back to your cmd.exe prompt. Make the cmd.exe window large enough and you can actually use this as a newsreader in a pinch :-). Email works in a similar fashion as well :-). -- Chris Dukes "Let all the babies be born. Then let us drown those we do not like." -- G. K. Chesterton. |
