An intrusion detection and prevention service flagged suspicious behavior by a user connected to login1 and that caused the campus ISO to isolate login1 from the network. We have reached out to the specific user, and ISO have asked us to wait for the recovery of a forensic image before we disable that user and make the host available again. We had hoped that that process would take under five hours, but it has been delayed. We will post again when login1 is once again available to the ibiblio community.

The login node is again available.
