Yes, that appears to be the case.  We no longer get e-mails telling us that we have PMs nor do moderators get them when someone requests access to a forum that they moderate.

Should we just take it out back and shoot it?  Move all operations over to D.net?

Try and contact BBJ first or possibly SNB.

PostPosted: Thu Nov 18, 2004 2:36 pm    Post subject: phpBB 2.0.11 released - Critical update    Reply with quote
We have now released phpBB 2.0.11, the "damn, it's cold and my fur won't grow back" edition. This fixes a number of issues, introduces visual confirmation as standard and addresses a potentially serious exploit. We encourage everyone to update as soon as possible. We also encourage any hosting providers out there to contact and/or update users copies of phpBB to this latest version. Please spread news of this release far and wide.

Quote:
Changes since 2.0.10

    * Fixed unsetting global vars - Matt Kavanagh
    * Fixed XSS vulnerability in username handling - AnthraX101
    * Fixed not confirmed sql injection in username handling - warmth
    * Added check for empty topic id in topic_review function
    * Added visual confirmation mod to code base



As with previous releases three different packages are available:


    * Full Package
      Contains entire phpBB2 source and English language package
    * Changed Files Only
      Contains only those files changed from previous versions of phpBB. Please note this archive contains changed files for each previous release
    * Patch Files
      Contains patch compatible patches from the previous versions of phpBB.



Select whichever package is most suitable for you.

Please ensure you read the INSTALL and README documents in docs/ before proceeding with installation or updates!.

Note to 2.0.3 users intending to use the patch file version

Users of 2.0.3 intending to use the patch version may (but not necessarily will) need to run fixfiles.sh (found in the contrib/ directory with the downloaded archive) before patching.

We recommend that all 2.0.3 users do a "dry run" patch first to see whether this you need to use this fix. To do this append --dry-run to the patch command, e.g. patch -cl -p1 --dry-run < phpBB-2.0.3_to_2.0.11.patch. This will prevent any permanent changes being made to your installation. If you experience numerous (literally dozens and dozens) of hunk failed messages this applies to you.

To correct this problem go to your phpBB root directory, copy the fixfiles.sh to this location, chmod u+x fixfiles.sh and type ./fixfiles.sh. This will strip windows style carriage returns present in the 2.0.3 source.

It might be time to transfer.
Does BBJ even play at all anymore? I know Skull stops by once in a while
(usually just to kill me) but I havent seen BBJ in a long time.

Besides I can't figure out how to kick people out of the Lyran forums over there, or get rid of some
of the more "questionable" posts in the Lyran forums.
Here I could assume complete control...

If you are having password problems, email me or leave a PM and I will reset the password. The email system hasn't been working for months. We have been looking at moving the forums for awhile now, the issues that have remained unresolved so far include not being able to archive, let alone port the old forum database to a new place, and getting the old website back. It was decided we would make a new website for SFC2.net, since we have the domain name back again, however, as it stands at the moment, moving the forums will mean losing the old ones (perhaps they casn be left up as an archive). We are considering all options. If you think you can convert a MS SQL forum db for phpbb (whichever version the forums are using to), to the same software that d.net uses, please let me know.

   I think FireSoul has the answer for you if he or Bonk can update it to a phpbb 2.0.11 which is the newer version.

Make sure the given mail server entry works before you start rolling out the guillotine for Bozobits forums.
