last night at 3:15am US/Central the main SD webserver experienced an outage that was resolved around 8am. This prevented authentication by the data servers. Review of the logs show the primary network interface was removed after AWS failed to renew it.

This appears to be unrelated to the BOT issue, and has never happened before.

Yesterday, we switched to using Cloudfare bot defenses on the forum and it is helping. I've turned the SD forum back on.
