558553 - remove/bump up connection limit for 64.119.159.231 on irc.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Joe Drew (not getting mail)]

We are having a processing.js get-together at the Bocoup loft in Boston, but we only have a single IP, and that makes getting on irc.mozilla.org very difficult. If the connection limit could be bumped up to 20-30 or removed altogether for the IP in question - 64.119.159.231 - that would be very useful.

I don't usually do IRC admin stuff, so I hope I did this right:

iptables -I IRC_FLOOD_CHECK 3 -s 64.119.159.231/32 -j ACCEPT


Justdave, can you verify?

Comment 2

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

nope, didn't even have to touch iptables.

edit /home/ircd/unreal/allows.conf on both gravel and sand, and add a line that looks similar to the ones for the MV hotels and Toronto office and so forth.  Then /oper on each server and do a /rehash (or send the daemon a SIGHUP from the shell).

I think this event is over now, so I suppose you can just undo any changes and WONTFIX...

It's true, we no longer need this change since the event is over.
