Access to your control panel may also be limited. http://griffin-technologies.co.uk/news.php?item.27.3 2010-09-07T12:03:39+01:00 Griffin Technologies Over the next week we will be upgrading our mail servers. This will mean that the IP addresses of the servers may also change. You should ensure that you always connect to the mail server using 'mail.yourdomain.com' rather than the IP address. http://griffin-technologies.co.uk/news.php?item.26.3 2010-09-07T12:03:39+01:00 Griffin Technologies We have withdrawn SSH access from all of our hosting accounts.Our network provider has requested that all SSH access to the servers must be applied for in writing, accompanied by a photocopy of some form of picture ID. This is apparently to enhance security!We feel that the conditions set are unreasonable, and unworkable, and so the service has been withdrawn.Please remember that in most cases FTP or our online file manager can be used to manage your account including editing files and changing file permissions.For those of you who need to have SSH enabled, and can provide the required information. Please contact support and we will make arrangements for the service to be activated on your account.All existing customers with SSH enabled on their accounts will be able to continue using this service until 1st August 2008. http://griffin-technologies.co.uk/news.php?item.25.3 2010-09-07T12:03:39+01:00 Griffin Technologies As part of our ongoing efforts to improve security we have reset a number of FTP and Cpanel passwords that have been classed as insecure. This could be because the password is too simple or because the password has not been changed for an extended period.We have emailed all affected customers their new login details, if you find you cannot login to your ftp or hosting control panel, then please raise a support ticket.
