[ros-dev] Reactos.com problems

[Rick Langschultz]

Do you think that the use of newer server software would be an option. I
would like to see the new system use some sort of directory service, apache
2.0, PHP, Perl, and POP or IMAP mail provided to users and developers.
Something like someone at users.reactos.com, someone at developers.reactos.com,
someone at admin.reactos.com, and ros-dev at lists.reactos.com, this would
separate the different types of people involved in the project. I think that
the lists could even possibly used to link to member email also so if a user
sends an email to ros-web at lists.reactos.com the email would go directly to
someone-on-the-web-team at admin.reactos.com. This would provide great
integration as well as a centralized place to check one's email. Just a few
thoughts...

There are pretty strong indications that the reactos.com box was cracked. It
took part in a DDoS attack. As a consequence, it was isolated from the
network. Unfortunately, I'm on vacation right now so I don't have physical
access to the box and am unable to fix/reinstall.
For the moment, I've moved the mailing lists to a backup box. I am not
moving the website, since it seems the attack was carried out via the
website (a vulnerability in one of the php script packages we use). I'll put
up a dummy page informing visitors.
Not sure how far along the release of 0.2.7 is, but I'd like to suggest to
put it off for at least another week, until I'm back and can sort things
out.

Apologies for the inconvenience, Ge van Geldorp.
