Well, not much to tell really other than sometime around 9:30 last night on the 21-07-2011 the server stopped responding.

A reboot request was actioned this morning at around 9:15 and, while this worked for a bit, the server soon became un-responsive again. Another reboot was actioned a few hours later and we appear to be back and have full access to the server.

I've just had a quick look at the logs on the server and can see no reason for the unexplained shutdown so we'll need to delve deeper to see what caused the issue.

From all the admins, apologies for this unscheduled outage, we'll endeavour to find and resolve the cause as soon as we can.

The admin tools, TS etc are not currently running.  I have been checking the server over and have applied some security updates.  The server and forum will be restarted in 5 minutes and I will restart all of our standard applications once this is complete.

I've updated and restarted Wolfcon and it looks like it's changed the map now.
