They took down the apache server for some maintenance. Good times.

Also, something came down that required a forum upgrade. I've updated it, and it appears to work now. How odd.

Yeah, it's definitely not fixed. The DB is out of space, it seems. I'm in communication with them now.

OKAY, so they tell me:

The forum was set to store its session files in the default location ('/tmp'), which on a normal system(including this one), is writable by any user on the system. One of these other users filled it up with their stupid crap. I have changed the settings to have the session files stored to a directory under my home directory, which only I have access to write.

So it should be fixed now, but who knows? PHP is voodoo to me anyway.
