mercury back online

Mercury is back online and the misbehaving firewall has been disabled.

Sorry, everyone. Needless to say, that security group won't be messing with my servers again.

Still waiting...

The firewall does seem to be out of control, blocking everything. This issue has been passed to a level 2 tech at the data center...

Mercury down... (maybe?)

I signed up for a security audit and ongoing monitoring on mercury... It appears they've installed some kind of overly paranoid monitoring system that is blocking legitimate customers at the firewall level.

I seemed to have triggered this myself and can't even tell if the server is up anymore.

I have a ticket open with the planet and we're getting this sorted out ASAP.
