Hi maratsade,
In addition to getting more info on what you mean by "preview posts or PMs", can you let me know about the 401 error issue you are encountering? I've only had this problem using VPN, but other connections work, so I am wondering how you are able to work around it in order to post at all?
Thanks,
Amanda
I think I've had the problem with and without a VPN.
I have to use a VPN for work -- it's mandatory. I didn't use to have any problem connecting before, though; that just cropped up since the update.
Does this means that HN is now blocking VPNs? I had been told that HN didn't block VPNs.
As for getting around it, I just keep trying to log in, and sometimes it works. Rarely. When the system logs me out, I have to start over, and often I just give up. I hope that this issue can be fixed, because I'm obligated to use a VPN.
Nope, this shouldn't purposely be a problem with VPN unless it is saying you are in another country, which I don't think is the case. Our corporate one is pretty finicky, but it may not be related to VPN at all, but rather some bad cookie being stored that isn't redirecting from login correctly. The right folks on working on it.
Oh, good. I'm not using foreign connections, and I'm connecting from the US. I hope it gets fixed soon. :-)
