Why Comments Are Broken 4 May 05
Comments are broken for all Nilzero blogs which use MT 2.63 and have been for some time. While this is saving us from having to accept loads of comment spam, it should probably be fixed at some point. So I tried fixing it, only to discover that the mt-comments.cgi file has UNIX permissions of 000. This makes it pretty impossible to delete, overwrite or change permissions on. Any ideas?

I believe this is something Superuser did. From what I've read today, some servers were seeing 300 separate processes running from one mt-comments.cgi.
I grabbed a bootleg copy of mt-2.63 from some website, pulled out mt-comments, renamed it to something clever and relatively unguessable, then changed mt.cfg to look for this new file.
Hopefully this will a)Work (this is the first test). b)deter some bots from spamming us. With fingers crossed, I hit 'Post'

So, that worked. Make sure and rebuild your blogs before trying comments.

Ha! that's the same thing that came to me on my way to work today. Thanks for doing it. Looks good so far...
