Sometime last night, before our regular GhostCast maintenance cycle executed, the Ghost Configuration Server encountered an exception. It spit a backtrace at the screen and, ever since, every GhostCast I've tried (be it executing a task or just loading the GhostCast server) has absolutely refused to accept connections from the hosts. Ghost is running on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise box with only ports 25, 6666, 6667, 6668 and 6669 blocked.
While I'm interested in finding the cause, my main concern at the moment is that we can no longer restore any images, so our maintenance is completely gone.
The backtrace is as follows:
