Interesting firewall problem

January 20th, 2007 by Andrea Mercado

So you may notice that the blog has been conspicuously empty today. That’s because all of us here at the conference thought the server was down because we couldn’t access it. Turns out, it seems like the conference center firewall is blocking all sorts of LISHost stuff (I’m using hotel wifi at the Westin Seattle)”, which is decidedly not good. I’ll inquire about it with ALA staff tomorrow, but in the meantime, we apologize for the “radio silence,” and will return you to your regularly-scheduled crazy conference readings until it’s all better again.

    What’s the old saying? It’s not you it’s me. I’ve adjusted the rules a bit, and whitelisted the IPs I could find for locations around the conference, so I don’t think it’ll happen again.

    My apologizes to everyone in Seattle!!
