Venus down?

For the last few days, venus has rejected my previously accepted username/password. Is there something wrong with the server?

My provider is planning various upgrades and they've been messing with venus for a few days. Some of the time they redirected traffic to news2 and some of the time it was down. I might know more on Monday. For now I've reset the free trials so you can get a trial account on the Pro server even if you've had one before. http://www.binaryboy.com/server.php?a=free

Venus is now shut down. The bandwidth limit on news2.binaryboy.com has been doubled to make up the difference. The same newsgroups should still be available.
