Re: Debian Server problems

2003-11-27 Thread Gerfried Fuchs
Hi!

 Thanks for your mails, I won't write one answer for each of you for
this would waste too much resources (both mine and mailservers).

 You noticed some problems with some Debian services. Unfortunately you
doesn't seem to have noticed on the various news sites which are linked
from [1] that some Debian machines got compromised and were thus
services were shut down to be able to inspect the incident more closely.

 So please be a little bit patient, most of the services are back again,
only gluck is missing on which cvs.debian.org, packages.debian.org and
people.debian.org are hosted.

 On [1] you also have a link to the original advisory which was sent
out and hit the archives already. I would strongly suggest to subscribe
to the debian-security-announce list at least.

 Thanks for your understanding,
Alfie

I ask you once again. What about some additional header on every
Debian page? It's quite simple to implement and it has worked fine with
software patents protest.
I've read somewhere that there should be other informations about this
problem on wednesday... but it seems that whole this stuff will be much
longer :/

 Debian page? It's quite simple to implement and it has worked fine with

 I try to explain once again: CVS is currently down, so the pages can't
be automatically generated. This is also the mixed language problem on
e.g. the polish pages, because Joey tried to get the announce on the
pages by hacking on the mirror itself. It would bring up much more
problems than it saves (like the sync with the cvs when its up again,
more cruft lying around -- and the people that could do it are the same
that are working on getting gluck back up).

 So long,
Alfie

Sorry I didn't know that adding it is problem. I was mislead by news 
about 3.0r2 and compromise. They were added after compromise so 
I thought that adding next info is quite easy.
