Turns out, not unrelated, and not a coincidence. The server has an uptime of over 49 days, so it wasn't a server failure. They looked into other causes for me. Short version: I had put in a few pages before I discovered the "Live preview" feature of the Wiki. I assumed it was a client-side visual editor or preview (it is not). After effectively spamming the server with traffic (new preview after I keep typing) the server temporarily blocked my IP. That's why all my websites on their shared hosting went "down." It resolved on its own when the block was lifted. So that was self-inflicted. I'll stop using "Live preview" but they've added my IP to a whitelist anyway. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
