| Hello everyone, this is the "last warning": I will be switching servers tonight (CEST), if all goes well, the switchover will take effect around midnight CEST which will be around 6 p.m. Eastern Time in the U.S. (Daylight Savings Time of course ;) ) (...)

| | Important: Index rebuild under way and some other issues
|
| Hi all, we are currently rebuilding the indexes of the LUGNET news server. This affects display and performance of the news web pages, but does not affect the NNTP access. We expect rebuild to complete by about 7 a.m. EDT, and reported search issues (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jun-06, to lugnet.announce) !

You are right Chris, I left the automated background jobs at the original times, only that the new server is located in Germany and runs on CEST rather than EDT - that's plus 6 hours. We will discuss adjustments after (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

| I know - it was posted in that 20 minute gap where we ran mail2news w/o news authentication (call it a collateral damage of the server move). Spammers are fast, you know. We will deal with it eventually, but most importantly you can rest assured it (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jun-06, to lugnet.technic)

| | Some minor issues fixed...
|
| Hi all, I realized this morning that parts of the news posting and news to mail subscription signup as well als the password change pages did not work correctly. These pages are now fixed, so you should be able to sign up for posting/subscriptions (...) (18 years ago, 21-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | Are you missing news-by-mail digests/forwards?
|
| Hi all, I have received reports, that news-by-mail was not entirely functional. According to the logs it appears, digests do get sent out, but I cannot easily identify if all subscribers do get updated with what they subscribed for. Can you please (...)

Apparently only the direct mail function is affected, whereas the digest function works as intended. I am (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

| Hi all, this is in reply to all mails I received regarding news2mail subscriptions (i.e. newsgroup subscriptions as direct delivery via email - not digests, those seem to have worked all the time): I have found the error, repaired the script and (...)

| Hi again, apparently the script doing the news2mail conversion was broken. I managed to call it from the command line and found the error. It works now, however only for new posts - I am afraid there is no reasonable way to resend posts that (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jun-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | News subscriptions fixed!
|
| Okay, this is probably worthy of an official announcement: I have identified an error in the newsgroup subscription setup that prevented subscriptions for immediate delivery from being sent out to all of you. The error has been identified and fixed. (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jun-06, to lugnet.announce)

As a subscriber, you can select whether the posts you receive via email should include the original poster or rather the newsgroup-address in the reply-to field. The (...)
