Connection Woes

1. Brian Evans (b__m__e (a) mailfence.com)

Hi all. Things had been going pretty well for me and my client as far as 
gemini is concerned.
However, as of tonight I am getting prematurely dropped connections from a 
lot of servers.
Nothing in my code has changes (nothing that would have an effect on the connection).

My tls.Dial function returns an EOF error. This apparently occurs when the remote server
terminates the connection before the handshake is complete. If any of you running 
servers know why this might be happening I would greatly appreciate any input. I am
still able to reach most servers with AV-98... so I do not really 
understand the issue :-/

Semi-related, here is what I have as the current landscape:

gemini.conman.org - Up and no issues
zaibatsu.circumlunar.space - Up and no issues
typed-hole.org - Up and no issues
earthlight.xyz - Had a bad certificate, now I get this EOF issue
carcosa.net - Had bad certificate, now I get connection reset by peer
heavysquare.com - was Up/fine, now I get connection reset by peer
mozz.us - was up/fine, now I get EOF
tilde.black - was up (I love some of the content there in particular), now EOF
tilde.pink - was fine/up, now EOF
vger.cloud - was up/fine, now EOF
yam655.com - was up/fine, now EOF

As you can see, I am only able to visit a small subset of servers all of a 
sudden. The fact
that I am still able to visit any seems to indicate that the code has not 
broken (particularly
since it seems to be the remote host dropping connections in each case). Does anyone
see any pattern that makes sense? Maybe all of the EOFs are running the same server
software or something?

Any help or advice would be really appreciated. This is quite frustrating.

Thanks!

TLDR; Disregard my last email. Thank you for your time.

Ok. Weirdest thing, two hours later (only a bit later from the last e-mail),
everything is back to how it was. Very very strange. Again, no code change,
just suddenly working...

Actual lay of the land as I see it from my client:
 
gemini.conman.org - up and no issues
zaibatsu.circumlunar.space - up and no issues
typed-hole.org - up and no issues
earthlight.xyz - up/no issues
carcosa.net - host name does not match, bad certificate
heavysquare.com - up/no issues
mozz.us - up/no issues
tilde.black - up/no issues
tilde.pink - up/no issues
vger.cloud - up/no issues
yam655.com - up/no issues
dgold - permanently dead?
red consensus - permanently dead?



Again, sorry for the weird report in the last email. Thanks to anyone
who saw it and started looking into it. If there was any common ground
to those servers though (such as server software) it would be interesting
to know if there was a bug that may have caused a temporary issue or
something...

I'm touch with dgold via Mastodon and tfurrows via many channels.  I'll
politely poke them this evening to see what the situation is with these
servers.

The Gemini server at the Red Consensus is back!  The software was not
automatically restarting after system reboots, and tfurrows hadn't
noticed the outage.  He's going to try to fix this, but in general
disappearances should be attributed to it being "unreliable" rather than
deliberately "gone".

I've not heard back yet from dgold.
