The denial-of-service attackers are back, and I've been forced to temporarily disable both trackbacks and comments. Normal service will resume shortly.
Update: Comments are back. It's just those idiot crapflooders again, and my MT Craplist patch is dealing with it. Trackbacks will be offline for a few more minutes.
Update: Trackbacks are back online, and another 200 IP addresses are on my shitlist.
Update: Susie can't ping me! Let me try... Ping!
Oops. Trying again... Fixed! :)
Posted by Pixy Misa at February 3, 2005 01:15 PMWeird. I just recieved notice of a legitimate trackback from Dec 13th, 2003. Again. Weird...
Posted by Tuning Spork at February 4, 2005 06:42 AMSuddenly, I get a forbidden message when trying to trackback to any mu.nu blog. Can you help or explain? I'm no spammer.
Here's an example:
Sending trackback to: http://blog.mu.nu/cgi/mt-tb.cgi/65817 ... [post]
Response: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2005 16:29:12 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 PHP/4.3.10 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7a Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /cgi/mt-tb.cgi/65817 on this server.
Sorry, you probably had the misfortune to trackback to us in he middle of the attack and got blacklisted by mistake.
I think I've removed your IP from the list, so feel free to try again.
