Hi, I’m a new Debian/Linux user and brand new to this mailing list. I’m here primarily because I’m not impressed with the way Windows (particularly the latest technical preview) is heading and am looking for alternatives. To that end I have been tinkering with various Linux distros and I have found a reproducible issue in Wheezy that I wish to discuss on the Debian user Forums, but I appear to be unable to register. Every IP I try I appears to be black-listed. I even attempted using TOR and those IPs were also black-listed. The problem is I can’t post to the forums to tell them I can’t register. I can’t find anything on Google about this problem. It appears as if the black-list check conducted by the forums is now returning positive for all IPs being requested, which means no one can sign up, if I interpret this correctly. http://www.ahbl.org/content/last-notice-wildcarding-services-jan-1st “Last Notice: Wildcarding of Services Jan 1st As promised in April, on Jan 1st, 2015, i'll be wildcarding all zones no longer in operation - this includes rhsbl.ahbl.org, dnsbl.ahbl.org, and ircbl.ahbl.org. This means that these services will return positive responses for any queries. If you are still using these services, this may cause you to incorrectly tag e-mail as spam, or create other unintended consequences. Fix and maintain your servers, now. Do not contact us about 'removing' your domain or IP address from our lists, as there is nothing we can do for you.” So it would seem that whoever administers these forums needs to know about it, but I cannot find an appropriate place to report this issue (other than the forums themselves which I cannot access). If there is a better way to report this issue please let me know. Regards, Wayne. |
