Subject: [oc] OpenCores SERVER IS BACK ONLINE
Hey !There has been an attack on opencores.org master server that caused server
being down for last 48 hours. I hope this was someone with too much time on
his hands - we can only hope that this wasn't someone or some company with
more sinister reasons... If you are the attacker and reading this, OpenCores
is a free service with its mission in the same spirit as free software /
open source software, as I know you know Linux very well, you are doing harm
to something similar like Linux. I hope you can sleep.
There will be some upgrading of the server's SW and HW needed in the next
weeks or so. The plan is to put two servers on-line that will provide
additional services following recent introduction of nLint etc. Hopefully
two servers will be able to handle all the work that current server has
problem to cope with. They will also allow easier maintenance since there
will always be one server while the other is being down for whatever
maintenance.
Due to security reasons CVS is disabled. I hope it will be back online later
this week.
regards,
Damjan
PS This is the first time in 4.5 years that OpenCores master server was down
for more than 24 hours. On average up time for OpenCores master server was
about 3-4 months in the last 4.5 years.
