Sify - Deja Vu ... port 143/993 - IMAP :/
by Pradeepto Bhattacharya 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

Hi List, Apparently, somebody at Sify is having a lot of fun at customer's expense. So today sometime in the afternoon some nice admin or someone with admin rights decided - "OK, lets see what happens if I block 143 and 993. Should be fun, I am sure." Or probably the dude pressed the wrong next and "Are you sure? OK" button. Afaics, I can't telnet to port 143/993 on IMAP servers that I use. I am sure the servers are working because I know others are using it just fine and I even saw their telnet output. I have lodged a complaint with sify helpline - it took few hours to get through the executive. First hit - some dude in Vile Parle kept me on hold for few minutes. I cut the phone and called them again, this time the call was directed to Chennai ( even thought I selected "Technical query" ). The dude listened to me and suddenly popped the most important question ever - "Do see the network card?" . I pretty much went "Huh?". I explained to him that everything else is working - like surfing, chatting, emailing - yes those words they understand easily. I was promised that the techie dude will call me in an hour. I am waiting. In the meanwhile I called again and this time a girl spoke to me who ended the discussion with "Yes yes, I can see your complaint. We will call you as soon as it is solved. I would really appreciate, some users in Mumbai, if they could some how check if IMAP is working from their Sify accounts. I know that many people don't use IMAP so chances might just be low. Thanks in advance. Cheers! Pradeepto -- The KDE Project : http://www.kde.org KDE India : http://in.kde.org Mailing List : http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-india

Hi All, I am heading a startup currently and am looking for a bit of help on the web-development front. We are looking for someone who can handle website development in PERL. I can't seem to find anyone for this through the normal route of contacting web development companies. A friend suggested that I try getting in touch with people at LUG Mumbai and hence this mail. Any help will be appreciated and apologies for this being spam to some of you. Cheers, Kashyap

[OT] Sify Port 22 blocked?
by Pradeepto Bhattacharya 13 Jul '07

13 Jul '07

Hi, Does anybody notice that? Since last few hours, I am unable to ssh, svn+ssh to any servers I would like to. I am getting timeouts from each of the servers. I called the sify helpline, which now even has a "Press 2 for technical support". The dude asked me to click on the trayicon of sifybb thingie. When I told him that I am using Linux, he kept me on hold and had a conference, I think. Another dude spoke to me after that and asked me - if ssh was a program or something? After some more discussion I was promised that everything will be ok in next 1 hour. So I am waiting. I am wondering if somebody with sifybb in Mumbai/New Mumbai can check if port 22 is blocked or is it my figment of imagination? Thanks. Cheers!
