Ping pings again

Posted on February 09, 2004 @ 16:15 in Sitestuff

It may not be much of an issue to you, but I'm happy to report that this MovableType installation pings again. In November the hosting of my domain was moved to a new server and from that moment MT couldn't ping sites such as blo.gs and weblogs.com anymore, nor could it any longer send Trackback pings. A misplaced /etc/protocols file eventually proved to be the culprit. Now all pings ping again and that makes me want to write many more posts, just to enjoy the happy sound of it.

  2. Heh... as an explanation for the above comment: the text of this message previously ran like this:

    "This message is for testing purposes only. It will be removed shortly. Do not be alarmed."

    To which the answer:

    seems perfectly sensible ;-)

    Also note the Frankie Goes To Hollywood reference :-)

Comments and trackbacks have been closed on this site. My apologies.

Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
