The problem then when it came back online is that the filtering rules at the firewall don't persist across a reboot (something I'm going to fix tomorrow) and the spam harvester bots that have been attacking us started getting through. Once I was able to reset the filtering rules we were back in business. (The harness has a feature to automatically detect bad spider behavior and turn on filtering by ip at the firewall, there are currently 175 ip addresses being blocked. We've seen bad behavior from 245 different addresses so far...) Peter
