Mon 25 Mar 2002's Blog

Mondays are bad enough without getting to work to find that you've left your cherished website open to Admin access by the whole world. The worst thing being that, with port 1352 closed, there was nothing I could do from the office but wait for the American hosts to wake up in 5 hours time.

Thanks to all of you who were considerate enough to let me know. To save writing the same mail over and over I will thank you all here. Many, many thanks to:

  • Glen Holmes
  • Clint Caraway
  • Dan Lowden
  • Zak Zarachiwala
  • Sandeep Kohli
  • Mark Elgar
  • Colm Finn
  • Steve Cannon
  • Jef Reynders
  • Lahbib Marouan
  • Jaap Steenis
  • Gaston Annebicque
  • Ulf Grindstad
  • Dave Meehan
  • John Marshall
  • Paul Veitch
  • John Seto
  • Warren Muckell
  • Val Cassidy
  • Jean-Wilfrid Moreau

As for those of you who couldn't resist having a play with Edit and Publish buttons. Tut tut, shame on you.

Later tonight I will replace the live site with a fresh replica. The worst damage now is to my pride. You've all seen a) what an idiot I am and b) how embarrassingly simple the mechanics of this site are. At least one good thing came of it: I've learnt to not replicate ACL settings from a local machine ;-)
