Well, called and chatted with the IT Director. They shut down the server because he thinks it is a security hole. That is just dumb. Personally do not think a public list server is a security hole. Especially if that list server only accepts connections from members of the discussion list that must be added manually and the administration login is only allowed from a specific IP. The server isn't even on or have access to our private network. i was not a typical IT idiot when I set it up.

Think it is even dummer to close down the discussion list server BEFORE setting up the teams site you are replacing it with.

Kinda weird he told met I was doing a great job?
Think it is because we had a security audit last week and none of the things I setup or have been working on have been a risk despite what the other server admin said.
I had even suggested some things that were NOT done that the secrity audit guys recommended.

What do I know anyway. I have only been doing this stuff for 28 years.
