Hope I’m asking this in the right place. My static home IP address was recently changed and I can no longer access RPMfusion’s website or repo. I have no issue accessing both over different VPNs. I reached out to the maintainer of Anubis and they directed me here. My guess is that whoever had this IP previously got into no good with it.
RPMfusion is the only domain that I’m having an issue with and the IP does not appear on any other RBLs.
@rpmfusion.org, can someone direct me to the right place to get the block removed?
Would love to but it doesn’t look like new users can send DMs, so I’ll have to tag @kwizart instead.
And while I understand that they are not a Fedora project, it looks like their website links to these forums for user assistance, so ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯. Unless I’m misunderstanding their site?
Oh, and I tried their IRC channel but got no response and the connection kept timing out. Even if someone did respond, I wouldn’t have been able to see it.
Which site are you talking about ? rpmfusion.org or any sub-domain ?
Can you DM your IP address so I can have a look ? or send en email to root at rpmfusion.org
Hey Kwizart. Thank you for the reply. I’ve sent you an email. I can’t DM, probably because my account here is too new.
I get timeouts on rpmfusion.org, www.rpmfusion.org, and from the repo download base domain. That seems to be random now as some mirrors respond. Pinging also doesn’t work. But, if I try over a VPN, everything works as expected.
Are you in Russia, Iran, or another country that is hostile to America? Unfortunately, these are sanctions that are also being implemented by FLOSS projects. A very sad world.
So, my understanding after talking with Bilbo is that there is a routing issue with the ISP, as I don’t see any attempt to block icmp or any related IP range on application layer kind of firewall. (no IP appears on logs).
Unfortunately we do not have (yet) round robin mirrors for rpmfusion.org, so the random behaviour is not our fact.
