What the FUCK is going on with Directnic????
 

Im with them since 4 years... never had a single problem until today.

All my URL redirections ceased to work. I asked and they responded they were under a DOS attack. Asked when it will be resolved or if i can be moved to another server (they work for some people) and no response...

Does anyone know ICQ or MSN from someone at directnic?

Thanks in advance.

lol

You posted 2 topics right ?

I have redirection for one of my site and it works well

and that means... ? :321GFY

mine are still redirecting fine. i'm sure they'll get around to fixing it.

must've missed the last thread. they're under a denial of service attack at the moment. some of the redirecting DNS servers are out.. all of mine, however (28 domains), are still functioning 100%.

their tech staff is aware of the problem and they're workin to fix it, so there's nothin you can really do but sit back and wait. :Oh crap

yes, it seems some servers are up... so thats why i asked to move my things over there but no response.

This is what i got:


Thank you for using the directNIC.com Trouble Ticket System. The following
response is from a qualified directNIC customer support team member:

Hello,
We are currently experiencing a DOS attack on that server. We expect to have the sites resolving properly again shortly.

Still no response from directnic.

Will bump until someone from there reply.

Wasn't one of the recent virii set to attack today or tomorrow?

Don't know about that... although im hearing lots of sites are having DOS problems today.

The only thing i know is that all my domains are down, DIRECTNIC IS NOT RESPONDING TO MY SUPPORT TICKETS and the weekend is coming! :mad:

They're probably busy trying to fix the problem with all their resources. If more than one server and customer is being affected, you can't really expect them to drop trying to resolve the problem for EVERYBODY so they can make a quick fix for YOU.

If moving those redirections to another server is in fact the fastest way to fix the problem, you can be assured they'll be doing that. Now let them alone to work on this, and I'm sure it'll be fixed shortly.

Heh. You seems to think Directnic is a small operation and/or they read this board.

There's not an ICQ for Directnic because they have a whole support team, not one dude handling it all. Just have to wait for your ticket to be answered. I bet they have 1,000 tickets in the system about this.

umm yeah because a GFY member is part owner in Directnic. That's why he believes they read this board.

mine works.:thumbsup

Stop wasting your time and mine with pure speculation posts... i told you i work with Directnic since 4 years ago so im very aware who they are and the quality of their service.

Also, i posted here cause i do know one of the owners is always around... so i was expecting help from HIM.

BTW, some directnic reps DO post here as well... just do a search.

mine are workin

Sorry. I have been away from a computer all day today ( moving is a bitch).

Spoke to Sig. One of our free hosting servers is being DOS attacked. It has been going on for over 7 hours. We have our techs working on it.

We have the server back up, and it is working, it is justa little slwoer then normal.

We will continue to work until the problem is solved.

I am in favor of the death penalty for people who do shit like this!

you run directnic?

Mike,

Im checking my domains and sometimes they load sometimes they dont. So, it seems either they are still on the same server which is currently attacked or there's a problem with the backup.

Let me know.

Thanks!

Oracle: Mike AI is one of the owners of Directnic.

laugh out loud

mine are wroking fine.

I guess you'll have to break open the piggy bank to get your supersized delight this weekend huh?'
