Tatiana's tomato base

[gill_s]

Help! I cannot get connected to Tatiana's website. Does anybody know of a problem. Is there a change of web address or is it just my computer giong on strike!

I tried many times yesterday and last night without any luck.

I just emailed her to let her know so hopefully it will be fixed soon for you. I ordered from her and she was very responsive and answered many questions I had before I decided which tomatoes to grow.

Thanks, pdxwindjammer!

I received an email back from Tatiana. They are experiencing a power outage due to a storm up north and she hopes to be back up soon. If you know what you plan to order, I will send you her email address. I will first check to see if she is okay with that.

Cheers!

I really was just looking up info on some of the tomatoes I'm growing this year...everything's planted and I'm completely out of space! Thanks for the offer to help, though.

Panic over. The website is up and running again today. Thanks for replies

Is Tatiana's website down again? I haven't been able to get on for the last couple of days.

No problems on my end accessing Tatiana's site at this time. I think the path has recently changed just a bit, but could be mistaken.

Anyhow, here is the link I quickly found in Google by typing "tomatobase":

Must be something they've done to our machines here at work. That link doesn't get me there either.

If you are on a network sometimes that happens when they push updates. If they are filtering your access this can also cause problems. Ask your network administrator whats going on. Ami

I was on there last night....

Works fine for me as of an hour ago.

That ":88" at the end of the hostname means "tcp port 88"
(usually used by kerberos). Not surprising if organizational
firewalls filter it. Their rule is usually "if it is not a destination
port for a well-known service that we know we need to allow
through the firewall, filter it."

If you are at work, and they generally let out port 80 or 8080
www connects, you can get there via an anonymous web
proxy: http://proxy.org/

Your web browser will connect to the proxy on port 80,
the standard http port, and the proxy will connect to the
TOMATObase on whatever port the dns redirect specifies
(tcp port 88 in this case).

edit:
I do not know if the www proxies pass everything. They
commonly filter ads, embedded scripts, etc. If you need
to order something or log in somewhere, be sure to check
to make sure that the lock icon in the address bar on your
browser is showing that indicates an encrypted ssl connection.
