[CentOS-announce] Mailserver move
Hi subscribers, the sponsor of the machine our mailserver runs on will be physically moving the machine at around May 27th 04:00 UTC. This move will take until around May 27th 07:00 UTC (or shorter). This means that there will be no activity on the mailing lists during that time. We all hope that the machine will come up without problems again after the move. If it doesn't, service (mailing lists) might be interrupted for a few more hours. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause you. Regards, Ralph ___ CentOS-announce mailing list CentOS-announce@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce

[CentOS-announce] Security Notice: Attempted Break-In on www.centos.org
Subject: Break-In attempt on www.centos.org Dear Users, on Friday evening, July 3rd (UTC) we found a few suspicious files on the CentOS webserver. Upon investigating we found out that the files had been put there through Xoops (the CMS www.centos.org runs on) - and that this was possible due to a an administrative error which has been corrected. As far as we can see there has been no data or binary injected into the system or taken from the system. The machine hasn't been used as a source for sending spam (in the widest possible meaning) either. We have been able to identify the source of the attacks, but have not been able to find out if the files have been put there through a compromised user account in the Xoops system. Although we are fairly sure that there has been no such compromise, we have enforced a password expiry on all accounts on the system. wiki.centos.org and bugs.centos.org - though being on the same machine - have not been affected by this. All users having an account on www.centos.org need to acquire a new password through the lost password system of Xoops. We are terribly sorry for any inconvenience this might cause you and would like to apologize for that.

[CentOS-announce] New Mailing List: CentOS Newsletter announcements
Hi, Dag Wieers announced the first bi-weekly CentOS Newsletter today: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-newsletter/2009-June/00.html This Newsletter is considered as an important interface between the CentOS team and the CentOS community. If you want to be informed when a new newsletter comes out, you can subscribe to the newly created CentOS-Newsletter announcement list - the Newsletter itself is only available on the CentOS wiki. http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-newsletter This is not a discussion list, but is only used for newsletter announcements, which makes it a low traffic list.

[CentOS-announce] New list: CentOS-Mirror-Announce
Hi, there's a new CentOS mailing list on the block: CentOS-mirror-announce This list is for announcement from the CentOS team to public mirror admins, containing trivia like issues with our mirror network, new releases, changes in how we do mirroring and so on. This list is thought to be for those busy mirror admins, who don't want to follow the centos-mirror list due to too many postings. CentOS-mirror-announce is a very low traffic mailing list. CentOS-mirror-announce is *not* a discussion list. Mirror admins will still be required to announce their newly created mirrors, but if you decide that the traffic gets too much for you, you can subscribe to the mirror-announcement list. The mirror list is subscribed to receive a daily digest of CentOS-mirror-announce, so non-subscribers of the announcement list will not miss any mails going to that list.

[CentOS-announce] Political Spam sent through several CentOS mailing lists
The CentOS team likes to offer an apology for the political spam mails which went through our mail servers earlier today. Due to the nature of mailing list software for public discussion groups, there aren't that many security measures which can be taken to check which mails are supposed to get through and which mails aren't. Total safety can only be had by a moderation of all lists - and that is not where we want to go. The spammer today faked the identity of a CentOS core developer and thus got through on all mailing lists. That these mails also got through the moderated centos-announce list was an oversight in the configuration of that list which has been fixed now. The CentOS team does not condone such behaviour and does not wish to support any political agenda through the mailing lists of the Project - in case you had wondered.

[CentOS-announce] My God, it is full of stars
And it is fast! And big! And louder! What is? The new CentOS mail server is, which coincidentally also hosts the mailing lists you are reading right now. After three short hours and (AFAICS) no lost mail we now have the following situation: The mailq on the old mail server now is empty, while the new one is already fighting with stale dns info, unknown users, deferrals and so on. Normal insanity, I'd say. One word to our moderators and/or mailing list administrators: Everything should work as it did on the old machine. If your list *admin* password isn't working anymore, please drop me a mail so we can clear that up. Everybody else: Send even more mails! The infrastructure for that is here now!

[CentOS-announce] Mail and list server downtime
Hello, there will be a downtime of the mail and list server tomorrow evening from around 20:00 UTC and a few (hopefully) hours after that. This means that there will be no mail traffic at that time to and from centos.org domains. We need to move away mail from the current machine to a new machine, as our old mailserver is a bit unreliable at the moment (the hardware is showing its age). After the move everything will work exactly as before, only faster, bigger and better. Thanks for your understanding, Ralph pgp1lpEkSb1Bj.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ CentOS-announce mailing list CentOS-announce@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce
