@Chris: Once again thank you for all the hard work. We really seem to be under some kind of curse. First the harddrive crash, then the DDoS attack and now the domain registrars pull a stunt like that. IIRC you once mentioned you´re running pages for some clients on the same server. Hope those weren´t influenced so at least the cash flow continues and there are no financial downsides for you (keeping in mind that while domains are affordable they´re still not exactly free either).

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Somebody blow something up, I'm in a really bad mood. Thanks in advance.

Ace, just for info, there seems to be some issues with using the .org address to get in - after being re-directed to the .net, the login process failed with the server refusing the connection on the grounds that the .org domain was not in the white list.

Directly using the .net address seemed to work fine, so it may have been the redirect that caused the glitch.

No question is a stupid question if you don't know the answer - If you need help (and you can find us), ask the (Sens)A-Team.

LOL. Thats exactly what I got. Only it was all in german xD
Anyways, I'm glad its just a minor domain issue. I feard it might be the hard drives or some other (much more) important server hardware crash. I'm really relieved, thats its just a stupid company being unable to process a clients wish.

Good luck, getting things back up running, Ace!

If Windows is the solution may I please get back the problem?

I will have the .org actually forwarded to the .net so that login issue will go away. I noticed that this morning.

So what exactly is the issue, can the domain be "stolen" just like that?!

Those of us with links to threads in our signatures will need to change them, at least for now.

And some major kudos to Aceman for getting the site back up so quickly!
