Hobocomp still kicking

17 Jan 2009, 4:59pm

As of now, hobocomp has been up for 143 days on its life support system of substitute hobocomp. Hopefully announcing this does not jinx it. Let's all cross our fingers that this lasts for many more days.

Hobocomp has been under attack via SSH brute force attempts as of late, and a denyhosts daemon now watches and blocks IPs that have repeated failed attempts. For fun, I've compiled a list (with attempted country of origin look-ups) here. I'm still looking for a better free geoIP database to use, so hopefully some of those unknowns will be resolved.

I've also added a RSS feed for hobocomp, so you can subscribe to updates and such.

In other news, a new domain is now being hosted on hobocomp, bringing the total to 3. ericw.us/trow is the newest member of the club. It serves as a personal page, and a pretty snazzy URL, too.
