Restarting...i saw some packet flooding on the console.

Restarted.

Hi, I am restarting now, but i can also see a lot of mailformed packets arriving the server - which indicates an attack. I see these packets since a few days already.

Fixed. Btw, no need for "ping" or "database down" postings. Down is down...

Hmm...anyone else experiencing this?

Fixed...

Tnx for the hint ,Warlock. The NIC is sometimes going south...which was (again) the case. Fixed it, restarting.

Ok...there was a hard disk failure, so the provider did a hot swap. We restarted all services, shoudl be up and running in a sec...

Hi! We need to wait for Kyp/Admin. Something is wrong i cannot access.

Oki doki, restarted!

Restarting:)

Hmm...since i am trickey, i might have fixed it "some unnatural way".... ?

Exactly, but we need to wait for Kyp..when he drives home from work

Might take a bit...Kyp needs to check one of the dns servers...

On it...

Ya...obv. they got afraid of the new JAVA exploit and patched their service w/o notice.... Check now/again plz:)

Didn't see anything weird but restarted anyway.

Restarting (was crashed).

Today there are windows patches so it takes a bit longer.

Try this on your console: nslookup net-7.org 8.8.8.8 This would check the domain via the Google DNS server. Just to make sure the DNS record has been updated there. Then do a nslookup net-7.org (no 8.8.8.8 at the end) This would show the DNS request from your condigured DNS server (NIC configf), which could be a local DNS cache (bind server Linux gateway?) or the provider DNS itself (slow updates?).

Should be fixed now, DNS updates could take a few tho...

Looks like Kyp forgot to renew the domain...(why isnt it on auto-renewal anyway....) ? So we have to wait until he gets up, recog. the national catastrophe and initiate the emergency protocol...

Restarted!

Tnx..check again plz....

Reachable again, fixing things, then restarting
