  1. Yeah, I believe the issue has been resolved. Something about members using the server as their own personal mysql or something like that.
  2. I figure the results are because the server for network-tools.com is actually in Dallas, right? So I figured out the command line for doing it from my computer and it shows a 63ms round trip going down to Spokane and over to Seattle and straight back. Doesn't explain the apparent outage though... Load times are improving at this time but still seem slower than usual.
  3. Well, tonight we're suddenly not seeing our website (208.43.165.61) come up quickly and it was unreachable for a little while and no support staff available on chat, and no one answering the phones. So I went to network-tools.com and trace-routed the ping. From N. of Spokane it shows level3 carries it to Dallas, L.A., San Jose, to Seattle. What's going on? Is there a break in Washington State? Here's the trace with my IP "x"ed out: Hop (ms) (ms) (ms) IP Address Host name 1 15 12 20 72.249.xxx.xxx - 2 10 9 7 8.9.232.73 xe-5-3-0.edge3.dallas1.level3.net 3 21 15 17 4.69.145.52 ae-63-60.ebr3.dallas1.level3.net 4 51 47 60 4.69.132.77 ae-3-3.ebr2.losangeles1.level3.net 5 45 45 59 4.69.137.22 ae-72-72.csw2.losangeles1.level3.net 6 48 57 60 4.69.137.37 ae-73-73.ebr3.losangeles1.level3.net 7 104 67 72 4.69.132.9 ae-2-2.ebr3.sanjose1.level3.net 8 75 87 71 4.69.132.50 ae-7-7.ebr1.seattle1.level3.net 9 67 65 66 4.68.105.5 ae-14-51.car4.seattle1.level3.net 10 70 96 84 4.71.152.138 te2-5.bbr01.wb01.sea01.networklayer.com 11 92 98 81 173.192.18.186 po99.bbr01.wb01.sea01.networklayer.com 12 67 69 67 173.192.18.199 po2.cer01.sr01.sea01.networklayer.com 13 86 66 126 67.228.118.134 po1.fcr01.sr01.sea01.networklayer.com 14 71 69 71 208.43.165.61 208.43.165.61-static.reverse.softlayer.com Trace complete
  4. Hi. I was just wondering if attacks are getting worse as time goes by. I've heard of people who have had attackers report their IP to spamhaus or spamcop.net by inserting the target's ip and other identifying info into spam emails. After a week or two of this the target gets shut down by their provider. I'm only learning of this today and I'm not saying it's happening to me, but if it does, please don't proclaim me guilty until proven innocent... I read about it on this blog, http://www.bluehatseo.com/ , and I don't know how much validity there is in it but was wondering if it's a common occurrence around these parts. Scroll down to the part that deals with How to take down a competitor's website...
