What an appalling web server setup... susceptible to POODLE, supporting SSL and RC4. I suppose some of this is necessary to thwart calls of alienating those with old kit... at least it supports IE6 on Windows XP (: However, where do you draw the line between flexibility and half decent security? Not really a particularly impressive use of our tax dollars. Steve On Fri, 2015-02-20 at 01:37 +0000, Kyle Carter wrote:
We had issues with this the other day…
It now seems stable, but the site has moved.
The ird is serving their main site from https://www2.e-services.ird.govt.nz/secure/login.html
Whereas last week it was served from https://www1.e-services.ird.govt.nz/secure/login.html
And the cert loaded only matches www2, so any users with bookmarks for www1 get all sorts of nice cert errors confusing them to no end.
And of course automated systems also broke.
Not quite transparent load balancing or migration.

From: nznog-bounces(a)list.waikato.ac.nz [mailto:nznog-bounces(a)list.waikato.ac.nz] On Behalf Of Barry Murphy Sent: Thursday, 19 February 2015 10:10 a.m. To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: [nznog] Loading of IRD.govt.nz taking 30-50 seconds of late
Morning all,
Wondering if anyone else is noticing that the ird website is taking quite some time to load, has been happening since late last week or earlier this week judging from reports.
Tested from our network and also on 4G from Spark, same issue.
Looking at a debug of the page, we get a 301 after 25 seconds, then we get a 24 second delay for a 200 OK then things start loading a bit later out of a cache from the looks.
If anyone that looks after the IRD infrastructure is on the list, feel free to reply offlist.
Many thanks
