  Re: LUGNET is moving servers once more
 
Hi everybody, the server move as such has been very successful this time as opposed to previous moves. Not only did the move just take a mere 2 hours, primarily due to the low bandwidth available to transfer all the files and fix a few settings. (...) (4 years ago, 4-May-20, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
Hi Jerry, Reporting something here that I think might be a recent bug: Even when I'm signed in, I'm not seeing the Author field in the headers on any new posts. On old posts, however, the Author field does show up. In looking at the raw message (...) (9 years ago, 7-Oct-15, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.nntp)

All, please be advised that posting to LUGNET via Email is currently DISABLED due to an issue with the mail-authentication mechanism. Please use the web frontend to post messages. Thank you. Thanks, Jerry (9 years ago, 7-Mar-15, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Intermittent Outage Notification: Lugnet Server Move
 
(...) Thank you, Suz I realize this move will be interesting again to say the least. I finally got that Perl issue worked around that made us cancel the previous move, but the mail2news mechanics are sort of broken at the moment (not that it matters (...)

  Re: Intermittent Outage Notification: Lugnet Server Move
 
All, if you are reading this, you will have made it to the new Lugnet server. We are not quite there yet, but things are working reasonably well, therefore I am keeping this machine online and will be fixing stuff as we move along. Posting via the (...)

  Re: Getting an error when viewing posts
 
(...) I got the same error when I tried (shortly after reading your message), so it wasn't only you. Play well, Jacob (9 years ago, 16-Feb-15, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Getting an error when viewing posts
 
(...) Well, either it's been fixed, or it was an issue with the computer from which I was trying to access LUGNET this afternoon. (9 years ago, 15-Feb-15, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Getting an error when viewing posts
 
Clicking on an individual post, rather than on the board-level overview, gives the following error message: === An internal server error occurred: DBI connect('host=localh...web4',...) failed: Access denied for user 'web4'@'localhost' (using (...) (9 years ago, 15-Feb-15, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
Update: The list Todd spotted has now also been cleared of the poster name display if visitor is not signed in. I have now disabled the link to the raw message for non-signed-in users as well. Hope that helps. Thanks, Jerry (9 years ago, 15-Dec-14, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
(...) Hi Todd, yes correct, I only took out the Author field from the message display and the "name" field from the list view - however you seem to have spotted at least one more place that I have not covered, so I'll probably spend some more time (...)

  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
(...) Hi Jerry, Thanks for the update. Point of clarification: This is only for the web view, yes? And specifically, only the field called "Author"? I see that the "From" and "X-Real-Life-Name" headers of the raw NNTP message, e.g. (URL) still (...) (9 years ago, 15-Dec-14, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Change in News Display Behavior
 
All, due to privacy concerns raised by a few individuals, the news display has been modified slightly. Going forward, only registered and signed-in members will be able to see the "Author" field of news posts. For visitors and search engines, this (...)
