The story on roadrunner.austin.comments is that they are blocking port 80 to mitigate nimda and code red and that running a server violates the TOS anyways. And it may or may not be permanent. (Thanks M$!) In related news, they are blaming nimda for the fact that their news server doesn't quite work properly. I wish DSL installation weren't such a hassle. -- "Don't tell me I'm burning the candle at both ends -- tell me where to get more wax!!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Send administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
