Dns problem . Your box is still running .
Web site is up for me . http://www.xirvik.com/
No, it is down, my box is down as well as their sites.
I sent an email, but knowing xirvik it will take 18 hours before I receive a reply...
First time I see this happen.
Heh, as I posted this, everything was back up 2 mins afterwards.
That's a rather crappy way to introduce myself to this forum..lol.
:lol:
Edit. So I emailed them myself . 20 minutes later got a reply .
There's an outgoing attack on our DNS provider .
Not a long time for their undoubtedly busiest day of the year .
No it's not. This is a DNS problem caused by a Denial-of-Service attack on the company that runs our DNS service (Zerigo). It affects all their customers, not just us.Quote:

If you sent an email then it was replied with your server's IP address so you can continue operating normally. Please don't spread misinformation.Quote:

My IP address was looking at me in the account settings, but how many of us would have taken much notice until today?
BTW, Xirvik took about 6 hours to get back to me, but in the circumstances I think it was quite understandable/acceptable. However, I think they have learned from this by keeping their twitter page up to date.
It's a bit like being stuck in a traffic jam - things arn't so bad once you have information as to what is going on.
I contacted the MSN support for mine, got answer straight away :)
