not true since we're educating folk who don't read all the standard security lists and blogs, ... from sans some hours ago lfak's site is back, reduced to the bare minimum as it had very high load. If you still can't reach it's possible that there is some caching between you/your ISP/Ilfak's site. Thanks to Alexander H for pointing out that, due to changes on Ilfak's site, URLs from old diary entries don't work anymore. You can go to the main web page, http://www.hexblog.com to access Ilfak's files. Just one more update - if you can't access the site, the main reason is that your DNS server(s) still don't have the updated (new) DNS entries. Ilfak changed IP address of his site so it will take a while for this to propagate. The new IP address is 216.227.222.95, and you can reach the site by going to http://216.227.222.95. randy
