Re: punbb hacked
Apparently this forum was hacked way back in July.
Shall we go and wake up the admin?

We need a MOD send notification email to admin when the site is hacked 
If your people come crazy, you will not need to your mind any more.

Know what?
I really like your Do something! approach.... 
Anyway, I think first we'd have to know if the latest hack of Rod's board was due to a missing update or not.
If the latter we have a problem.
If not then it just means that everybody should update.
Does anybody has an answer to this?

lol, it's not that hard, if you have cron jobs
Just run a script every 10 minutes that checks that you still have admin

if your doing that why not just edit punbb so you can't be made not admin (and maybe lock down the forum if someone tries)

Or we can all do what you do and actually make an effort to find any outstanding vulnerabilities

Seriously, I'd like to but f.e. I still don't know if the hack reported by Rod was really due to an unclean update or a vulnerability of 1.2.6 - and if the latter, whalt exactly happened

Re: punbb hacked
I believe Rickard said in the thread that he was missing one of the patches for 1.2.6 (the one where you needed register_globals on)
Re: punbb hacked
Yes?
Must have overlooked that. Sorry.
And that surely was it?
Don't want to bug anybody, I'm just a bit nervous since my machine got hacked some month ago (because I gave space to friends and never bothered what they did there. So they went out and got phpBB ... )
