Hello all,following is a NOTAM issued by Richard Jenkins which I quote in full length from the VATSIM newsgroup:----snip----Hello All,As many of you have noticed, the VATSIM website has been down for most ofthe day. We are still experiencing technical problems with the server onwhich it is located.As a result of these technical problems, it has become necessary for VATSIMto regenerate all passwords for its members. This will take place over thenext 24 - 48 hours. You will be able to obtain your new password from theVATSIM website by using the lost password function at this link:http://cert.vatsim.net/vatsimnet/statcheck.htmlThe link currently does not work and will not work until the new passwordshave been created and we turn the database back on. You should have noproblem retrieving your password if you have maintained your email withVATSIM. If for some reason you have not kept a valid email with VATSIM, youwill need to email [email protected] and request that your email beupdated. Please do not email the membership department until the above linkis operational.VATSIM apologizes for any inconvenience.Richard JenkinsCommunications BoGVATSIM----snap----Yours,Martin Georg/EDDFVACC-SAG PR & Events Coordinator *** mailto:[email protected]http://images.vacc-sag.org/convention6.jpg
