Swebits Blocking IPs?

[bananaca]

Hi,

For the past few days I've been unable to access swebits. Firefox just sits in "waiting..." and then returns "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.". I can't even access the site through my workplace vpn.

I am able to access the frontpage through a proxy (won't try to login though ).

Does anyone know if swebits started blocking non-swedish/nordic IPs?

MASS-PM: Tekniska problem
DETTA PM GÅR UT TILL SAMTLIGA MEDLEMMAR

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Som ni märkt har Swebits, sedan igår, varit nere pga. problem med databasservern. Först trodde vi att servern bara hade säckat ihop, och att en omstart av servern skulle räcka för att vi skulle komma online igen. Efter att vi fick vår omstart kunde felsökandet påbörjas, och tyvärr hade databasen blivit nästan helt förstörd. Nyaste backupen vi har är 19 dagar gammal, och vi tvingas nu använda den.

Med andra ord, allting som har hänt på sidan efter 7 mars kl. 14:00 är förlorat. Torrents, foruminlägg, uppladdat, nerladdat, varningar, befodringar, konton. Endast dupen överlevde databaskraschen.

Vi ber er att inte fråga om ni kan få tillbaka det ni laddat upp, vi kommer inte att ändra på någons upload pga. det här.

Inga konton kommer att tas bort direkt pga. dålig ratio eller inaktivitet, fredag 28/03 00:00 kör vi igång våra automatiska script igen.

Vi beklagar det inträffade.

Exactly, as if I give a fuck like.

Coming here and bitching solves nothing, go & find out what the tracker suggests you do in times of strife.

I know for sure that some countries are blocked though i doubt it if its nordic IPs only since i've been able to login from a non-nordic proxy.

And yes, what you are describing is exactly the symptom, you get the "unable to access..." page!

I'll say your best shot is to try and use a proxy but i am afraid that you might have the same problems with the tracker itself...

Best of luck!
