Break in LDAP authentication at 2014-04-03 14:09 - 16:04

Schedule: 
2014-04-03 14:09 to 16:04
Duration: 
1h 55min
Affected services:

Description: 

Due to TCP wrapper configuration error clients in HIIT's production network were not allowed to connect to LDAP servers find.it.hiit.fi and lose.it.hiit.fi.

Breaks in domain name service at 2014-04-14 16:00 - 2014-03-17 11:30

Schedule: 
2014-03-14 16:00 to 2014-03-17 11:30
Duration: 
2d 19h 30min
Affected services: 
Domain name service (DNS)
Description: 

Due to zone delegation configuration error some of HIIT's zones, more specifically

  • fe.hiit.fi
  • it.hiit.fi
  • pc.hiit.fi

were not propagated to ns-secondary.funet.fi. Because HIIT has three (3) name servers (name.it.hiit.fi, label.it.hiit.fi and ns-secondary.funet.fi) one third (1/3) of queries to previously mentioned zones failed due to ns-secondary.funet.fi not knowing those previously mentioned zones.

The problem is being investigated.

Update at 2014-03-17 11:31: The configuration error in HIIT DNS external zone view delegation settings was found and fixed and all zones are OK now.
