    Thank you very much for bringing back the forum! I noticed that IP address of orchidsforum.com was pointing to a wrong server (in Domain Name Servers). Was it a malicious attempt (like DNS hijacking)?

    We still don't know what the problem was, but very happy it is working now.

    Hmmm, that is mysterious. So it got fixed without any changes by Brent?

    I was upset because Orchidboard was also down for a day.

    I may not post much but I appreciate everyone's orchid pics and info.
