I cant reach x.cygwin.com (connection refused)
is there an alternate? Cygwin.com ( no x. )seems fine.
Alternative should be Cygwin/X link in left navbar of Cygwin home page
- also timed out.
Servers were migrated and upgraded on the weekend.
Was a vhost dropped?
[...]
$ host -t any x.cygwin.com
socket.c:2908: setsockopt(20, IPV6_RECVTCLASS) failed: Invalid argument
x.cygwin.com is an alias for server2.sourceware.org.
Oops. That should have been a CNAME for cygwin.com (or sourceware.org)
I see the following "vhosts" have the same issue:
- www.xfree.cygwin.com
- xfree.cygwin.com
- x.cygwin.com
Are these all still in use?
Did we miss any others?
Apologies for missing this.
No worries Mark,
In current web site sources cygwin-htdocs, seeing xfree references only in
subdirectory and file names, and legacy mailing lists, so I would worry only
about x and not xfree, until somebody says so.
