Hi,

is there a problem with the Novell-Websites? (EMEA;  
Novell-IP: 130.57.5.70)

I could reach any other sites which I try for test purpose, but  
[www.novell.com](http://www.novell.com) did not response.) I have test this from two different  
WAN-Connections.

Bernd

OK, now [www.novell.com](https://www.novell.com) is reachable again.

Btw: Do Novell lock out requests from anonymous proxys?

Apologies. We had an ISP failure this morning, but everything is back  
online now. I’ll have to ask our IT team about the anonymous proxies.

They said generally no, we don’t block them unless their hitting our  
site causes problems.
