staff blogs

distributed.net staff keep (relatively) up-to-date logs of their activities in .plan files. These were traditionally available via finger, but we've put them on the web for easier consumption.

We’re having some difficulties getting logs to blower after an IP address
change. We’re working on it, and stats should be running soon.

Some network restructuring requires that stats.distributed.net be re-ip’d.
Please be patient if you experience any connectivity issues as things
propagate through DNS and settle down on this end.

Thanks.

Be advised that some network changes are occurring at the datacenter
where blower (stats.distributed.net) is hosted, so there might be some
connectivity issues while the DNS changes propagate.

Some minor issues discovered during the mail server changes were
fixed. This included some disruption of service to the email block
fetcher/flusher, and also some bounced mail that was sent to some
distributed.net staff mail addresses. If you received a bounce to
something you were trying to email, you might want to retry now.

This plan entry is mostly just a test to see if our plan system is
fully operational again. Some more things have successfully been
incrementally migrated off of one of our old servers (this time email,
plans, email fetch/flusher) as of tonight. With luck there will not
be any observable glitches. :)
