automatic log-in

I'd like to ask if the www.ebtforum.com address is also going to be re-assigned to the new server (hey, it's shorter - oh, well, I guess I can always bookmark...). BTW, I've been doing some tracing and apparently the DNS diffusion has reached my ISP (so, everything ay-okay - I just wonder what 'tiikeri' means...)
Yes.avij wrote:Let me guess -- first you accessed the address www.eurobilltracker.eu/phpBB2, logged in and the site threw you to ebtforum.miuku.net where you had to log in again? Yes, this may be a side effect of the two names for the forum server. This will be fixed when we can change the forum to recognize itself only as forum.eurobilltracker.eu instead of the temporary ebtforum.miuku.net address.Elmo wrote:I have to login TWICE before I am logged in. Anyone who has these problems too?
I guess we could do this during this night. My own computer just recently (a few hours ago) started to receive the new IP address for ebtforum, I think the DNS changes have propagated enough by now.

Hmm... I did know about this setting, but I never had any problem with other sites that use cookies, so I never considered it could be the problem...avij wrote:If yes, it means that the forum tried to set the automatic login setting for your browser, but your browser refused to accept it. If this is the case, have a look at MSIE settings; Tools -> Internet Options -> Privacy, from there you can set MSIE to accept all cookies or if you like, set it to accept cookies only from selected web sites. Personally I've chosen to allow all cookies. It might reduce my privacy somewhat, but frankly I don't care if someone monitors how often I visit web sites etc.
It's at normal at the moment, not even at the highest setting. I'll try changing it.
EDIT: As this is not officially my own computer I won't change the setting completely, but I've added the forum adress to the list of sites to be allowed. We'll see.

Yes, it pointed to the temporary name for some time, and for some days now it's been pointing to forum.eurobilltracker.eu.BogPoet wrote:I'd like to ask if the www.ebtforum.com address is also going to be re-assigned to the new server
Tiikeri is Finnish for tiger. For those who have no idea why BogPoet asked about this, tiikeri.miuku.net is the primary name of the new server, it just happens to have several names such as forum.eurobilltracker.eu.BogPoet wrote:apparently the DNS diffusion has reached my ISP (so, everything ay-okay - I just wonder what 'tiikeri' means...)
Here's the complete story. Several years ago when I moved to my current location and bought a new computer, I had to pick a name for the new computer. As I live right next to a small park called Karhupuisto (Bear park), I selected the name "karhu" (or "bear") for the computer. When that computer became too slow for desktop use, I installed Linux on it and used it as a firewall computer. I bought a new computer and thought I'd continue with the animal theme and picked the name "hirvi" (moose) for it. I'm still using it, although it's been upgraded several times by now. Half a year ago I bought another computer, primarily for running Linux. This was named "ahma" (wolverine?, Gulo gulo).
At some point I got a laptop and named it "silkkiuikku" (silk grebe??, Podiceps cristatus). Birds travel quite a lot, so I thought this would be a good name for a laptop. The computers named "leijona" (lion) and "tiikeri" (tiger) are the web servers for EBT and EBTF, respectively. I don't have those computers at home, so I thought I'd pick some "foreign" animal names for them.

And i can not registered once again, because my mail is already in use etc. etc.... And i can ( and you ) see my posts under find "franci"...
We will see...

Really? Why do you think it's impossible? I've now sent you a password reset email, just in case.francxxx wrote:And i can even not ask for new password, because...it is simply impossible.
Other things to consider:
1) delete all cookies originating from *.eurobilltracker.com
2) use the proper address for the forum, http://forum.eurobilltracker.eu/
3) some aggressive anti-spyware programs are known to be problematic, try disabling such programs
In case the problems persist, send an email to contact(at)eurobilltracker.com and I'll have a closer look.

I'm betting on cookie problems -- see the original suggestions. Other things to test:
4) use a different computer
