 heh. we fixed it. er, boze did actually. i think he owns me.
now I no longer have a legitimate use for having root FTP access in iBoze anymore. bah.

 Mmmmh.... speaking of spam, boze :: I figured out why the iBoze inbox file keeps filling up and overquota-ing the server... it's got something to do with RWL's "turn.php" file.

The file contains several million messages, and they all read as such:

/bin/sh: /boze/public_html/warlords/turns.php: No such file or directory

unfortunatly, I don't know how this would be fixed, as I checked, and there most certainly is a turns.php file in that directory. since I haven't/don't actually play Warlords (yet), I don't know if this error is causing any problems with the game. I'm assuming that it sends one of these messages every time someone takes a turn, but like I said, as a nonparticipant I can't really say what it does.

however, it should be fairly safe for you to re-make that crontab job you were talking about to auto-del it, as it doesn't contain a single piece of the mail heading to your email or my email. that way, we won't have to go in and delete it every week.

 wow. even forums with purposes have post problems. it's like the iBoze forums all over again!
