    Increased site security

    Well that would be disappointing. That they are starting to catch on, that is.

    Increased site security

    Should be less of a risk now than before, as all data is encrypted. Unless the risk is that they can't tell what you're doing any more. :)

    Increased site security

    Folks, A quick note to let you know that all sites (Army.ca, Navy.ca, Air-Force.ca, and Milner.ca) now default to secure mode using SSL. This change means that email addresses, passwords, posts, etc. are encrypted in transit between your decvice and my server. If you have any problems please...

    All things Charlottesville (merged)

    It's a fair assessment, and I recently considered shutting down the Politics board as well. However after convening a committee to discuss, and after five readings, I decided to open a second Politics board instead. Very bureaucratic of me don't you think? :) All kidding aside, the reason is...

    System Upgrade: Please Report Problems

    Changes this morning increased security, but apparently not performance. I will continue to investigate.

    System Upgrade: Please Report Problems

    Sorry about the outage... took some drastic steps to lock things down and upgraded a variety of security tools. Please let me know if there are issues.

    System Upgrade: Please Report Problems

    It's a server side issue, nothing to do with VPN usage. We are getting a lot of traffic from unexpected locations, so I am adding a bit more security.

    Subscriber Status Board ( merged )

    Your leave has been cancelled. ;)

    Subscriber Status Board ( merged )

    It’s a bit of a flaw in the system. Only subscribers can change status, so if that status lapses you can’t change or clear it any more. I’m out at the moment but if you’d like I can wipe it when I get back. Cheers Mike

    Site Outage, 19 Jul 2017

    Folks, unfortunately the site was down for a few hours this morning due to a server upgrade that introduced some serious issues. The problem has been resolved and we are back up as of a few minutes ago. Thanks for your patience. Cheers Mike

    Blood test at BMQ

    They test for standard medical illnesses such as diabetes, high cholesterol, etc. It's basically as if you got an annual check-up from your civilian doctor. Some illnesses (E.G. diabetes) would exclude you from service, but generally this is just to get a baseline of your health and make sure...

    Major Site Upgrade

    A quick update with good news... Immediately after the conversion, there was not much difference in the performance and number of connections (we even peaked at our max of 700 at least once). However we are now looking much better. For those who care, the database uses I/O credits to allow...
