Re: security.debian.org down
Hi,
it has been confirmed that the Twente University server rooms have now
completely burned down. This means, {security,non-us,nm,qa}.debian.org
and ftp.snt.utwente.nl are now lost. Rest in peace...
To translate and summarize http://www.webwereld.nl/nieuws/13242.phtml:
"The fire started a little after 8AM CET. There are no casualties.
The near Dutch-German internet exchange will take over some of the SURFnet
activities. The network will probably be up again tomorrow, with help from HP.
A new server room in another building was already being prepared anyway for
use next month..."
And yes, also in the Netherlands it's highly unusual that such a fire
happens.

Pieter-Paul

security.debian.org is hosted by the University of Twente in The Netherlands (www.utwente.nl). Their data center caught fire a few hours ago. As a result their class B (130.89.0.0/16) disappeared from the internet. A news article mentions that most servers and infrastructure has been distroyed. Is it possible to set up a mirror somewhere for the time being? -- Richard van den Berg, CISSP Trust Factory B.V. | http://www.trust-factory.com/ Bazarstraat 44a | Phone: +31 70 3620684 NL-2518AK The Hague | Fax : +31 70 3603009 The Netherlands | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

security.debian.org down
Hi, security.debian.org (aka non-us.debian.org aka satie.debian.org) and ftp.snt.utwente.nl are down, due to fire in Twente University. It's not at all lost yet, that would be a major blame. The Surfnet trouble tickets say that All computers in the building have been turned off, that's all - yet. No need to panic, #debian-devel on IRC has already been notified and the security team will pick up on it.
