Current Mood: | Re: Server down (5/30) lol, sorta. I turned on the firewall without checking to see if the config files had changed. They should have sustained the same configuration during update. The firewall worked so well that it completely shut off outside communication. They had to physically touch our server. |

So I take it the server is not sitting under your living-room window on an overturned crusty milk crate you brought home from your fast food job, surrounded by piles of dirty laundry, Magic: The Gathering cards, empty MtDew bottles and covered in wet, moldy in dog hair?

You have received an infraction at Debate Politics Forums.
Reason: locking everyone out

There is no excuse for this. Take a few days off and reconsider your administration style.

This infraction is worth 10 point(s) and may result in restricted access until it expires. Serious infractions will never expire.
Have a nice day.

Current Mood: | Re: Server down (5/30) OK, finally we believe the issue is resolved.
Our firewall was upgraded and kernel recompiled to accept the new iptables. |
