The classiccmp
server is broken.
Or something is doing horrible things to throttle bandwidth at his new provider.
I've seen stalls for a minute on ftp wgets (which is how I sync bitsavers),
lots of random 503's on web accesses, and random POP login failures.

This appears to be a 503 originating at this server.
When I access my site, I see individual 503 errors on many (sometimes most) of the photo
link accesses.
I would guess that the wgets fails becase it get s a 503 error, probably not knowing what
it means, only that
the accessed failed - and retries until it gets through which is what is taking a minite
- (I've sat hear reclicking
links for nearly a minite trying to open a message in the archive).
To me it looks like a server problem.

This has got me thinking... Unless I missed it, is Mr. Jay West still
active here? or just behind the scenes running the show?

He lurks. I talked with him last night on IRC about this and apparently
the invidual-site bandwidth manager was busily contemplating it's own
navel while randomly smashing sites. He should have it resolved by now.

Thanks. I wasn't worried so much about the site, more about him; good
to know he's well. It has been a few years since I was here...
