Per my previous note the #USWST node has been unavailable for
a full day now. Per the service provider they were hit with a
combination DDOS and unauthorized intruder attack. Apparently
when steps were taken to restart some of the VPS systems the
intruder had not yet been removed and "got angry" at the
recovery attempts and proceded to wiped a bunch of the VPS
systems which included the chat hub...
The VPS service provider has been working to restore all of
the wiped systems and although there is no specific ETA for
#USWST:WA3WLH-15 they have indicated that all impacted VPS
systems should be restored sometime today.
Stay tuned and I will follow up with a status after I am
able to access the system again.
