Penn State WebAccess Update
On Tuesday, April 11, 2006, Information Technology Services will add a
third Penn State WebAccess server to handle both browser access and
Cosign filters that check cookies. The update will take place between
6:00 and 6:30 a.m., during the regularly scheduled maintenance window
(5:00 a.m. - 7:00 a.m.). Intermittent outages for WebAccess-protected
services may occur, but are expected to be no longer than five minutes
at a time.
Since the various filters only look up the address records for
webaccess.psu.edu when they start, server administrators will need to
restart their respective Web servers to recognize the additional server.
If a server is not restarted, then the filter will only contact the two
original servers; however, authentication should still function.
The "Information for Firewall Users" Web site has been updated
to reflect this information. In addition, this information is noted on
the WebAccess Developers' Web site.
