    Dont block the Netherlands (NL) if you bank with ING or RaboBank or China if you are using Chinese inverters !!

    The host countries that host Entware are not explicitly stated in the web search results, but I can try to infer them based on some clues. For example, the domain names of the servers may indicate the country code or the organization that owns them. Here are some possible host countries for...

    How do you conclude that I was attacking his script? All I was asking him to do was to clarify how adding country blocks to skynet could affect amtm updating. I did suggest that even he may not know - that was probably premature to say the least - he obviously does know. But i wasnt attacking...

    fair call - I doubt lonelycoder would have taken offence - but you are probably correct with the observation around Entware.

    You could be right - it points to Entware as there have been updates of that recently - and the fact that amtm update stops at Entware checking. But the interrelationship with Skynet country blocking is still flabbergasting!!

    Yes as my post reads above the country block made amtm update fail just before entware checking. However it got past skynet which leads me baffled. How is it technically possible for this to happen to amtm update check i have no idea. Only lonelycoder can answer that and i fathom even he dosent...

    Well That was the problem - as soon as i removed the country list in skynet - amtm update check worked fine. How in the hell is that related Lonelycoder ?

    Scribe scribe 3.x_y - syslog-ng and logrotate installer

    I sorted out the problem with the above post. It seems the corruption was still in the syslog conf file after restoring configurations. I copied syslog-ng.conf from another router at an alternate installation and all OK now - sknet filter once again is working.

    Scribe scribe 3.x_y - syslog-ng and logrotate installer

    Corruption occurred again after 2 hours - this is crazy - /opt/etc/syslog-ng.conf is now a file that contains 60 or 70 "4.2" entries. The system messages have halted as have every other log file. Do the experts elorimer and cmkelley have any idea whats going on please? I used restore...
