    Tommy Downtime

    I have a free account and I am willing to wait until Tommy is repaired, but the 30-day sign-in will occur before then, and I can't log in at present. Will my account be disabled when Tommy is restored?
  2. Thanks, Wolstech: that's what I wanted to know. I'll restore the site without any of the WordPress content. AFH.
  3. Thanks, all. I have received the invitation and I shall take it up in due course, but I first need to investigate the AnonymousFox vulnerability before I do anything else. I don't want to recreate the problem on the new site... My domain is directed to the account on your servers: now that the account is suspended, I just get the suspended information page. Best wishes, AFH.
  4. My account has been suspended for no discernible reason. The main web pages have not changed for months, and only a few ancillary files are changed regularly. There is nothing in the content that comes anywhere near contravening your terms. Please explain why the account is suspended and what can be done to restore it. Account name: afheaton Host: Tommy Main domain: afheaton.heliohost.org Many thanks, Antony F Heaton.
  5. After everything was configured satisfactorily, I have since received the attached e-mail. This specifies a change of member name back to AFHeaton2, which I do not want, though it appears not to have been a change, but a new account with some of the same details as AFHeaton, including password and some other profile data, though not the topics and posts, which remain attached to AFHeaton. I can log into both accounts, but AFHeaton is correct with all my information and AFHeaton2 is spurious and unnecessary, so it can be deleted, provided this won't affect the primary account AFHeaton. Thanks, A F Heaton.
  6. I can now log in and I see that AFHeaton2 has now been renamed back to AFHeaton. Thanks yet again, A F Heaton.
  7. I have managed to secure an account on Tommy and I requested my original domain that was deleted from Stevie, afheaton.heliohost.org. After a message that the account has been created, the process led to the appended error screen. I pressed Try Again and went through the account creation process again, with the same result. I have been round the loop four times, without any resolution. Please help. A F Heaton.
  8. Thanks again. Why was my log-in name changed? Can it be changed back at some future date?
  9. Please remove my account from Stevie, so that I can recreate it on another server. Account name: afheaton Domain in use: afheaton.heliohost.org Many thanks, A F Heaton.
  10. That's very good. I only hope I shall not have renewed problems if my IP address changes as a result of my poor broadband connection. Thank you very much for dealing with the matter so promptly, Antony F Heaton.
  11. Thanks for unblocking my account: it is now working normally again. I did not realise that I was causing traffic that was being seen as suspicious. The reason for the level of FTP accesses is that I have been using webcam movement detection and logging the captures via FTP. Unfortunately the D-Link webcams produce a needlessly high number of images for each movement detected. I have asked D-Link for the facility to limit the rate of image capture, and they have accepted this for a future firmware upgrade, but with no commitment to a release date. If I presume that the problem is the number of log-ins, rather than the amount of traffic, then I may be able to buffer the captures locally and periodically perform a remote update, but this of course lowers the level of security that the cameras provide. The webcams only occasionally detect movement, but can typically log 30 to 50 images each time. Normally there would have been only 5 to 10 such occurrences during the day, though I have seen up to 1500 captures in a day. I generally check and delete the images at least once per day, to stop the accumulation of large amounts of data. My broadband connection is not completely reliable, being some distance from the telephone exchange, and every few days my router has to re-establish the connection, and this often results in a change of IP. I have not monitored this, though I think it normally stays within the same 255.255.255.0 subgroup. For the present I am logging the webcam captures on a different host. Thank you again for your assistance, Antony F Heaton.
  12. I have not been able to access my account (afheaton) on Stevie for nearly a week. I get no response from http://stevie.heliohost.org, though http://johnny.heliohost.org responds, and I can even log into the account which was deleted from Johnny when I moved my account to Stevie last October. I logged into cpanel on 25th January, so my account should not have been suspended, but, just in case, I tried to reactivate afheaton.heliohost.org, and the account was reported as not in the inactive list. Likewise, I can ping www.heliohost.org and johnny.heliohost.org, but not stevie.heliohost.net. It is as though Stevie is down, though the status monitor shows it as being up throughout. Could it be a remnant of the recently logged nameserver problem? I see the following IPs: stevie.heliohost.org (65.19.143.2); johnny.heliohost.org (64.62.211.131); www.heliohost.org (64.62.211.132). Are these correct? If so, why does Stevie not respond? Please help. Account name: afheaton.heliohost.org Thanks, Antony F Heaton.
  13. Sorry, I did not realise I had used a different e-mail. I have now changed the HelioNet e-mail to that used to create the account on Johnny and validated it. I hope you can now process the deletion request. Thanks again, Antony F Heaton
