OK folks here is what is going on.
There was an outage of most of wplug's IT resources yesterday
This includes:
All mailing lists
The website, www.wplug.org and erie.wplug.org
The wiki, wplug.ece.cmu.edu
email service for the @wplug.org domain
Not effected:
The irc channel #wplug on irc.freenode.net
The docs mirror ldp.wplug.org
In response to this outage, I decided that we need to switch to another
DNS provider ASAP. In my haste, made a mistake when migrating the DNS to
joker.com. I failed to save the name records therefore some users this
morning saw a generic site from joker.com and not our website. I
apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
To be perfectly clear, wplug.org is not now or has it ever been
"hijacked." The ip address of www.wplug.org is 128.2.194.8 as it has been
for years. Joker.com has been our domain registrar for several years as
well. The only thing that has changed since Thursday is that the DNS
servers for wplug.org are now with joker.com.
Thanks,
Beth Lynn Eicher
