Server Down
We had a server crash on August 17, 2005 that knocked down this site for over a day. The crash happened during a regularly scheduled system update (similar to a Windows update that most PC users get) that runs automatically. Coincidentally, it happened the same day that a worm crashed systems for the major news networks and other Windows-based environments.
Our crash forced us to totally reinstall our server operating system. Andrew Penry and I spent the next two days getting the server back up and running.
We believe that we have restored everything to the state it was before the crash. But any clients that may still be experiencing difficulties with sites and/or email should call me immediately.
