Ooooo, soap opera! Can't wait for the next chapter in the tale of
"forensics.pivx", the mail server that was! :D

I didn't get it... Now you have no mail server and use the open maillist for
corporate correspondence? We are waiting impatiently for detailed report how
this server was compromised.

Mark, your story is convenient. It also does not match the statements of
others at PivX who also claim to be involved in responding to this incident.
According to an e-mail that I received earlier today, "The
forensics.pivx.com mail server was trashed."
PivX corporate counsel contacted me with the following query:
"Why did you change the password on our server?"
Then I received a follow-up from PivX counsel after I denied doing any such
thing:
"Our forensics server had the password changed so I figured it was you!"
The conclusion was thus:
"Don't worry about the server. It is being re-imaged."
This makes me go Hmmm...
Sincerely,
Jason Coombs

All,
This box was not taken down by any hacker, or owned, it was taken down by my
sys admins at PivX for maintenance. Forensics is a division of PivX and we
manage that server. There's patching that needs to happen, so we took it
down.
Sorry for any chatter about this today. Obviously, there's some
mis-communication here. Hopefully this clears it all up.

And whomever it was that just owned the forensics.PivX.com
linux box, that wasn't a very nice thing to do...
You should apologize.
Cheers,
