I’ve done IT at various levels and still do websites and database code. There are mannnny security issues beyond the ones mentioned above.

Who was Hillary’s IT guy? Did he have a security clearance? What software did he use and was it maintained and patched at all times? Why is clintonemail.com pingable even now? What hardware was used and how robust? Was there backup power? A failover server? Was the email database replicated? What was the backup media? What routers were used and what version? Was the upchain service provider secure? Has anyone checked for packet sniffers? Were the emails encrypted?

The list goes far beyond even this.

Maybe she procured equipment, goods and services through private sources?

Was it revealed this was in fact a fedgov supported installation?

Ok I pinged clintonemail.com and got an IP of 208.91.197.27. Then I went to http://www.iplocation.net/ and plugged in the IP and got very interesting results.

According to domaintools.com, that server is located on Tortola, in the British Virgin Islands.

But, lest you get too excited, domaintools.com claims there are 1,187,342 websites at that address. Moreover, for $11,873, domaintools will sell you the full the list! LOL! E.g., try pinging wesi.com and see what IP it goes to.

Obviously, it's been reconfigured. The last thing the Hildebeest needs is a million hackers slowing down her Netflix while trying to hack into her server. Let Confluence Networks or whoever deal with that!

In Hillary’s presser she said the secret service were there guarding the server so it’s secure. So a guy standing there in the room with a glock is supposed to guard against hackers? Because that is precisely what she implied.

I like the way she suddenly bolted from the room as questions started to fly.

Maybe these guys were from an SS data security snoop squad or contractors. But it still begs the question, how could they not know what Clinton is doing? And what specific system of security was she using?

Meaningless trivia just for fun:

Englewood NJ [as opposed to CO] is the town that Libyan dictator Qadaffi attempted to stay at but was refused by the town mayor, etc, back in 2009.

I think he may be in error due to what I found.

May have found server location...

Your link states:

Which IP numbers does clintonemail.com use?

CLINTONEMAIL.COM uses the IP number 208.91.197.27 only which also WESTERNLAWN.COM, SHANKHASSICKFARM.COM, MAIL.USOPENSHOP.ORG and more than a million other use.

And indeed WESTERNLAWN.COM resolves to 208.91.197.27, as does clintonemail.com.

Where the server now is, is irrelevant.

Obviously, it needs to be someplace other than where it used to be, or else the Clintons' Netflix would be negatively impacted by all the hacker traffic. DNS is reconfigurable.

That's the point.

The old location would have been where the server really was, guarded by those Glock-bearing, navy-blue Surban-riding dudes, who might have wondered in retrospect why that hard drive was so active.

Nowadays, that box needs to be somewhere else, or else the hacker traffic to 15 Old House Ln, Chappaqua, NY 10514 would overwhelm and impinge on the Hildebeest's Netflix experience, in stark violation of Net Neutrality!

The physical security is irrelevant if the machine was on a network, public or private, and even with Level 1 encryption.

It's laughable I know.

If she was a republican, her main worry would be that the hangman would drop her so far that her head would be torn off.

Indeed.

If you look at some of the lib sites, these retards are actually asking "What's the big deal?"

So many retards out there who forgive a 'D' anything. After all, she's working for the good of the people, you know. It's not like she's an evil Republican or, God forbid, a right-wing conservative Tea Party'er!

The yoga bit is nothing...What she REALLY doesn’t want us to find out is that she read Fifty Shades of Grey.

Nice house for someone that was broke when they bought it.

Imagine what they would have if they had money.

Read post 51.

Well, now, that's interesting.

A quick nmap reveals an open port 443 ...

Surfing there brings up a browser warning page about SSL security, something about the certificate claiming to be for mail.clintonemail.com but not being able to prove it (IOW, probably self-signed).

If I blow past the warning, I see the following login page:
