The extended server outage over the past couple days was due to a malicious user gaining access to the server. Unfortunately this required the machine to be reformatted and re-installed from scratch. I'm still investigating the source of the security breach and am only bring services back that I'm sure are secure. Unfortunately this means the JMSNews Forums will be down for at least another day while I evaluate its security. The mail server is also offline. If required I can be contacted <a href="mailto:dougo@nwlink.com">here</a>. I apologize for the inconvenience.
