It's entirely possible there was an update that screwed something up. Your best bet is to make sure logging is set to verbose, shut down MIS, restart, attempt a connection, then check the logs.

I'm actually trying to connect now, and the port doesn't seem open. Do you have it blocked in your firewall, either in the OS or in your router?
