A few requests for people in high places to consider.
Item 1
User:Amillar (216.99.203.72) is blocked from firewallinit. He has said
sorry. Can he please be unblocked? Further details at
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk%3AAmillar
Item 2
The two recent server crashes were excessively prolonged due to the lack
of available users with the appropriate access. Can Erik Moller please
be given root access? Can I please have a non-root account on pliny? (I
already have one on larousse)
Item 3
:Could not connect to DB on 130.94.122.197
:Host 'larousse.wikipedia.org' is blocked because of many connection
:errors. Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'
Can max_connect_errors please be increased to, say, a billion? It is
currently set to 10. This has happened at least twice. There's probably
an underlying hardware problem, but this workaround would greatly reduce
downtime, while we're hunting down the root cause.
