This does not include the messages that slipped the filter – about 10 last month. But the amount of mail has been lower last month, there have been days with far less messages alltogether. For the rest, nothing particular; except that I have deleted the bogus users from the openVMS wiki (none have apeared since the last one – yet): clear the directory vmswikiroot:[mywiki.data.cache.__common__.session] and all files in vmswikiroot:[mywiki.data.user] that contained their information. And I also removed really old files (kept since July 2008 – there is no need to hold these backup’s :))
VPN works
Using an unsecured network at the office (mainly to allow guests access the Internet) AND disabling IPSec, the VPS connection works – very well. IPSec should work as well, but that’s another etst.
