Work computer showing wrong time? New company firewall blocks NTP.
Work computer not receiving email? New company firewall blocks IMAP.
Work computer not sending email? New company firewall blocks SMTP.
What a funny day at the office.

Well, would've been very corporate though to block NTP, IMAP and SMTP but leave telnet open (because it's needed for some legacy router thingy).

@daniel Maybe the password DB for VPN logins is synced by uploading via FTP and triggering the DB sync via telnet as root. And to protect the network from intruders, you *have* to block NTP, IMAP and SMTP! It's just logical.

I still wonder why noone complained about email. I guess they all use some weird http thing for those things now.

Someone else hit 21 and 22 before me.
