oc6iD - did you register and receive an email from our board yesterday so that you were able to download it, or had you previously been registered?

Table: phpbb_posts_author_change` 
  `post_id` 
  `original_author_id` 
  `new_author_id` 
  `post_time_original` 
  `post_time_new`

Hi Tom could you ask our forum to resend your username and password. There appears to have been a fault in the DNS setting of the mail server as the PTR record was not repling with the correct address - hopefully fixed now

I have just checked the links they all appear to be working - could you be a little bit more specific as to which link is not working - thanks.

=cipher= is a student in Canada who was keen to do some programming for us but he has now moved and is on holiday at the moment....... programming never got started .

FAIL: You have one or more missing (stealth) nameservers. The following nameserver(s) are listed (at your nameservers) as nameservers for your domain, but are not listed at the the parent nameservers (therefore, they may or may not get used, depending on whether your DNS servers return them in the authority section for other requests, per RFC2181 5.4.1). You need to make sure that these stealth nameservers are working; if they are not responding, you may have serious problems! The DNS Report will not query these servers, so you need to be very careful that they are working properly.

ns.triplentry.com.
This is listed as an ERROR because there are some cases where nasty problems can occur (if the TTLs vary from the NS records at the root servers and the NS records point to your own domain, for example).
