Just spotted this - I'd been trying to figure out why my office was being DDoS'd, and taking down parts of the CMU network along with it.  I'd kept a riecoin node going for the last two years despite not really being in crypto any more, but I can't let this prevent everyone in my building from working.

The DoS wasn't a matter of a new version - in my case, they were sending 5Gbps of NTP reflector traffic at my IP address.  Carnegie Mellon was not amused.  It was a pretty serious attack.

Sorry to hear about the problems.  Hope they get resolved!

Thanks for the info and I'm sorry you had problems at work.
