And neither of the previous two posts are visible in their respective tabs yet, although they show in new tabs. |

And neither of the previous two posts are visible in their respective tabs yet, although they show in new tabs. Saw that issue last night myself, but I assumed it was the occasional ordinary wonky this site has. |

This morning i did see that everyone seemed to have a credit and rac of zero, which threw me for a second. |

I have it on good authority that the DNS server belongs to the Space Science Laboratory - and they certainly know SETI exists.Yep it is a DNS problem. If you can be bothered to do anything about it , Richard has shown you how to do it. Me? i'm spending the day in the garden with the DT crossword and a beer (or 2 or 3).And for once you can bitch at the UNI. ADNS1.berkeley.edu has no clue Seti exists. Did Eric forget to pay the bill before he went on vacation? ;-) Apparently, it kept running through a power outage, but lost comms with the rest of the network. |

Ah, I may have a picture of it! When I went on the lab tour in 2011, I was shown ancillary kit in a couple of other rooms apart from the closet. The kit there was the back-room support gear and may well have included the DNS thingy. Er? power outage? Do we not have UPS's anywhere?No idea - the conversation didn't need to go into that level of detail. I think they've been given a wake-up call and there'll probably be internal discussions between the teams involved. |

Obviously if the SSL DNS doesn't answer it when it asks (broadcast packet?) what sub domains do you have ... then campus doesn't know the SSL exists. |

Lost comms - forgot to plug a switch into a UPS.Yup, that was pretty much my reply too. The reply was "Our assumptions about their setup often don't match reality." |

Sorry, you don't know who I was talking to, and you don't know what we were talking about. Suffice to say that my report of yesterday's DNS outage reached the right place, and I know that they know what happened and why. Let's leave it there. |

Am I trying to join this project at the wrong time? |

Eric has already gone on public record to say that if another university offered to host Seti, he would look at it. He would give up his tenured faculty position? |

If your referring to Seti, yes. The project has a weekly maintenance downtime for approx. 12 hours. It mostly occurs on a Tuesday. |

Well it isn't life critical so it doesn't have to be failure tested. @chris, if you followed, the failure was not Campus/IST related. Failure was in the Silver Space Science Lab on equipment not maintained by Campus/IST. Oh and more than just Seti@home was affected. |

Here we go again Ah, poor babies, how long has that patch been available now? Where is Martin to tell them what a bad choice in O/S they made? |

Where is Martin to tell them what a bad choice in O/S they made? probably waiting for main to come back up so he can post exactly what you said here ;-) :-) :-) |

Here we go again I'm pretty good at impressions... *clears throat* Uh-oh! Does FAILdows strike again? [lots of out of context copy and paste text from an article] It is what we patched it. AF1 |

SSL Projects Good list, to answer Chris, those projects with url's matching *.berkeley.edu but not *.ssl.berkeley.edu |
