whoa that ssh chat is nifty up_the_irons: i tried to raise interest in it :) i'm still kinda blown away did you see how it uses 14mb of ram it's not running heaps of ssh processes. wow that was with 100 users or something from what i understand it's basically a proof of concept so in general running other things with just easy ssh acces is it using openssh or something written just for it? Written just for it. Implements the protocol but only runs a chat client. it does ntify things like use your username as the nick on chat too s/ntify/nifty/ it does nifty things like use your username as the nick on chat too two places transposition I don't suppose someone just started blocking high port UDP packets there's a 5 megabit udp limit by default iirc so if it's high bandwidth it may be dropping some packets. not terrible high, just a mosh session for irssi that limit is on udp out oh i'd check your local firewall first. it may be timing out or something. huh, just started working again weird. mosh to my DigitalOcean VPS was still working fine, so I didn't think it was local udp is connectionless so some firewalls struggle with incoming if there isn't outgoing hmmm Nagios alert just fired for DNS not working on ARP too. weird. it may have just been a momentary routing issue. even more likely then :) sometimes some routers are slow at failing over. and can loop for a minute or two odd that I was able to SSH in normally though that is odd., oh, but SSH would be IPv6, mosh only does IPv4 ok that explains it then :) yeah hooray for IPv6 :D i really wish routers would start using faster cpus. it's kind of lame when $30,000 routers have slow cpus.
