| Server Outage | |
| Submitted by Dylan Reeve on 10 May 2007 - 1:08am | News |
| Approximately 1am on Saturday, May 5th, the server which hosts this site, the NZLUG mailing lists, and other associated services, was attacked via a PHP vulnerability in a third-party PHP application, and the attacker gained a user-level shell on the machine. This attack was used to launch a flood attack against an overseas IP address. Unfortunately this traffic had a very heavy impact on the network of our hosting provider. As a result they had no choice but to disconnect the server from the network. Unfortunately it was quite some time before we were able to gain access to the server to investigate. Our hosting provider has said they are unwilling to continue hosting the server. A new US-based server has been arranged and has been configured. The services have now been mostly reinstated, and actions have been taken to prevent a repeat of anything like this incident. Thanks and sorry about the outage. | |
| Major outage | |
| Submitted by Nic Bellamy on 28 Feb 2007 - 1:08am | News |
| A power glitch at our datacenter this past Monday (26th Feb) hastened the demise of our hardware; basically, the magic smoke leaked out. We've recovered most of the data (except the really important bits of course ;-) and we're rebuilding everything onto new hardware. Obviously, this is taking some time to get completed - with luck, the mailing lists should be alive again shortly. *yawn* Immense thanks go to Liz from debian.co.nz for the massive amount of help she has been in getting our data recovered and onto the new hardware. | |

Taking advantage of the holiday, we will start at 4pm, look over a few peoples problems, and run a presentation at 5pm with an introduction on how to find answers to Linux questions online (especially Google and the Wiki), 10 min Q&A and then go over fixing some problems live on a big screen. This one is a great opportunity for new and inexperienced users! Please bring machines. All are welcome. Refreshments provided. See the WLUG Wiki for more details. | |||||||||
