I am stuck using IE/9 at work on Winder's 7 at work. I noticed in the main forum I have a guest view. The Alph Hotel view is normal, except I cannot enter the "forbidden zone " as myself. I have a guest's view of that sub forum with guest polocies in force. I flushed the cookies, so it is not those files. Oh well. :dunno:

Yeah. What's up with that. I am hacking into DCW's and COR's account without even trying. I finally got back into mine.

I THINK.

Ugh! Serious fuck up after an upgrade.

Everything should be OK now.

I had a "Welcome VE7DCW" message when I called up the Island webpage. Looks like the problem was resolved before I had the chance to siphon all of Gerry's bank accounts.

The truth is: beyond the unexpected welcome message, the functionality of the board software seemed normal. I didn't have visibility into anybody's account except my own.

I had visibility in to see who you had been PMing, but I couldn't see the PM's. I could see the titles and who they were from. I wasn't going to read boring PM's, but it kinda sucks that this could have happened.

Pretty bad breach.

Wasn't as bad as you think, if you tried to do anything of concern under the other person's account, it was getting security token mismatches and failing.

Then something should have shown up on my account. I shouldn't have been seeing what I was seeing.

Obviously not. But if you had tried to actually read PMs or post messages, it would have given you an invalid security token message. Just saying.

FWIW, it was an upgrade to the memcached pecl library that was putting everyone's content in the same view. If was nothing I could have prevented other than researching an update that was listed as stable and minor. :dunno:

It was such a routine update, I didn't even bother to look to see if the site was still online afterwards, it was natural to assume it was.

Of course he is. My comment was directed at you, crystal balls.

I am only trying to let you know what happened on this end. If your contingency deal works as it should, that is fine. I was trying to post and it would not post. I realized it was under PA5COR then and I tried to log on as me. Then I changed browsers and it came up as DCW. When I looked for the private messages, it became YDK. It was really weird. If you know all that went on and have it contained, that is all I was looking to accomplish.

Noticed a few hiccups, but after 10 minutes it was all good again.

I know, right? It's like something no one wants to see, but at the same time you don't want others to see yours. Like my PM's with Jeff. "What kind of SWR meter is that?" "Oh, It's a goody from MFJ." "Kewl. I'd like that one."

Holy crap. If that ever got out. :oops:

After reading that op, I realize that I use 5 different keyboards, as well as my I phone on an almost daily basis. I wish they were more familiar to my fingers. DAYUM.

Now saw 10 Hail Carlos, and be repentant.

Always validate your changes.

(FWIW, I got bit with that today. Forgot to commit DNS changes yesterday, and end user was asking today,"Dafuq dude? WTF kind of sysadmin did you hire?")

Just checked: right now, one Canadian Dollar equals $.983 US, so they're pretty much on par.

Since returning from my hiatus I have been trying to PM a dear old friend without any luck, or so it would seem. I have been receiving and replying to PMs just fine, but cannot seem to successfully send one and nothing shows up in my sent box. Any ideas or suggestions?
