For those that care or are interested, it is a problem with Rackspace:

During the IP changeover maintenance last night issues began coming up where the remote address of the visitor is not being forwarded properly. We're still looking into the cause and resolution, but unfortunately do not have an ETR. We'll keep you up-to-date on the problem in this ticket.

Yeah !

Actually, just cut n' paste em on here, lets see if we can work out who's who for a bit of Friday afternoon FUN :)

E.g. Who wrote this:

I can't log on to NSC. Sort it out Bozza. I asked Gus what he thought of this and he told me your a massive tw@t.

Sadly this is far from fixed, and login process is displaying much the same problems late afternoon as it did early morning for much of the time. Reckon the site must be due a day's reimbursement of hosting charges from its hostys.

Sorry, yes, I appreciate its not fixed. I was just posting that to illustrate that it's not my fault for a change.

Apologies [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] if you misconstrued my post, I have never suggested for one moment that it was your fault. Far from it mate.

Oooo now that's an interesting one. Sounds like someone's misconfigured a router somewhere in Rackspace's network.

I suspect it's something like that. I haven't been able to quickly find the owner of the IP address (day job) but I've raised a ticket with Rackspace - they tend to be quick.

Ahaaaaa rack space.
