ISG News has posted a new item, 'plimpy DOS'
Today at 16:41 a process on our terminal server plimpy freaked out and consumed
all memory + swap, causing a complete halt of all other processes. We had to
reboot the machine. We're currently looking into ways to prevent this problem
from appearing again in the future. Sorry for your inconvenience.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Service downtime'
Today around 0715 we experienced a series of power outages in our water-cooled
racks in HIT, leading to a shutdown of our most crucial servers. It took us
almost two hours to get the systems up and running again, during which time most
of our services were not available.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Network outage aftermath'
Today around 15:00 the D-PHYS network started acting up. After about 15 min the
problem could be tracked down to a machine running amok. Unfortunately, the
terminal server plimpy did not survive the downtime and had to be rebooted at
16:10. We apologize for any inconvenience.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'LTSP Clients And The LTSP Server "plimpy"
Upgrade'
We will upgrade our LTSP server "plimpy" the next Wednesday, 24 June 2009
starting at 7 pm. Please save all your open documents and log out until that
time. The machine should be ready again the next morning. You don't have to back
up your data on /scratch since we will do that. Find the details on the software
changes here.
While performing the upgrade to Debian "lenny" we will switch to a 64 bit
kernel since finally also Adobe flash player, the last missing app, is now
available for 64 bit Linux. Unfortunately Adobe still doesn't ship 64 bit Linux
versions of Adobe Reader (formerly Acrobat Reader). You can still fill Adobe
Reader PDF forms and even create and edit PDF documents on the Windows RDP
Server "ramora" which you can access via the ETH Zurich menu, Microsoft Office
(or the full-screen login, see above link).

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Beware of phishing e-mails'
Of course 'UPGRADE YOUR ETHZ E-Mail-Konto.' is a phishing attempt. And not a
bad one at that. The German is halfway correct and they even used different
From: and Reply-To: addresses. But still: no administrator worth her title would
ever ask for a password. Please delete.
