A Denial-of-service attack is basically overloading the processing server with too much data, causing it to crash or lag. In this case, the hacker is trying to overload the PR mumble server, causing us to not get a connection.

As far as I know, not much can be done to prevent it, unless the server host wants to put passwords on servers or block out all traffic.

It's been happening for the past week on a daily basis now, the fact that you're experiencing this is purely bad luck.

I have never experienced this problem two days in a row.

Why would anybody want to crash the mumble server anyway?
