We have updated the authentication process for login server lilo7 (lilo7.science.ru.nl) as part of a test. As of now, your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file on lilo7 is ignored. This change is designed to prevent bad actors from easily gaining persistent access. The good news is that we can now grant access to lilo7 from outside the previously very restricted IP ranges. To gain access from a new IP range, you will need to provide us with your public SSH key and the IP range you will be connecting from....
by a website) and various websites. The server couldn’t be reached after the scheduled weekly reboot, not even on its management interface. Because also C&CZ employees work from home and the interruption didn’t get enough urgency fast enough, the interruption lasted too long, apologies for that. The support partner has been contacted and the server has been updated, but the origin of the problem is still unclear. We will also look at making these services more redundant or more easily movable to a different server....
Due to a failed BIOS upgrade, the hardware of the database server appears to be bricked. We transfered the disks to another machine (cn00) and all database services are now up again, at the cost of not having cn00 running.

March 25, a rule “2020 Radboud Universiteit” was added to the Science spamfilter. Recently, this matched RU-central mailings. Therefore RU-wide mailings from e.g. the RU Board and Radboud Recharge have erroneously been delivered in the Spam folder of Science emplyees. The Science spamfilter tries to fight spam and phishing, this is partly manual work in which errors can’t be excluded. C&CZ apologizes for the inconvenience this has caused.
