Excuse me, sir, but where do you think this message originated? (o_O)

I had confirmed that (at least I) people can access PiBBS from port 23 on
pibbs.sytes.net before replying to you previously! The web service on port 80
is (still broken) offline, which is why the http access isn't working. It's
not technically a DNS error, that may just be what your particular browser
calls it.

I invite you to check my work to be sure, but I suspect you will find telnet
on port 23 is still active. I didn't even know that there was a problem with
the http server, until it was pointed out to me, so I am always happy to have
independent verification!

Enjoy your day!
