One repeater was down:
*w51-010a-rep-1. 1/13 20:40 timeout 12/30 17:37-12/31 7:43 unreachable
but I suspect it's only the management, as at least some the hosts
originally complained about (burton-conner- through burton-conner-5)
are pinging again. Lou called the dorm, and people are using these
machines, at least.
This may well be the result of some attack (incoming or outgoing...),
and so it may return, but I don't see anything to be done at the
moment.
trans-trb: The next time someone's in this area, can you reset this
repeater and see if it comes back? There are other repeaters over
there that may be in the same state, since October:
*w51-030a-rep-1. 10/ 9 14:42 timeout 9/24 21:42- 9/24 21:42 unreachable
*w51-410t-rep-2. 10/ 9 13:45 timeout 9/24 21:42- 9/24 21:42 unreachable
*w51-410t-rep-3. 10/ 9 13:45 timeout 9/24 21:42- 9/24 21:42 unreachable
Thanks.
