podil Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I have not permission to reply to admin message in the Network and Server Status forum, so I am writing here. Ddos [02/05/2010] Mars came under a large distributed denial of service attack around 10:00AM EST - we mitigated it within a few minutes. There may have been a brief period of slowness or service outage as a result. We're currently monitoring the service and working with data center technicians to fully mitigate the attack. We'll leave this ticket open for 24 hours until we can confirm service is full restored and back to normal. __________________ Cody Robertson Chief Technical Officer Do you mean that 1-hour uptime when http, ftp and mail server don't work is a brief period of slowness or service outage??? After I have opened a support ticket, they just closed my ticket without any explanations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 The ticket forwarded you to the thread I imagine and it was closed. The DDOS was causing random service interruptions as the attackers attempted to flood the server out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
