NS Outage?

[rallan]

Today, my website, and all of x10hosting, were down, I tried doing a DNS Cachecheck on OpenDNS, to discover the name server wasn't working, this downtime lasted 4 hours... And all x10hosting sites were down.

:eek4:

Are you sure it wasn't just your ISP's DNS Servers? x10 has been but all day for me..

I use OpenDNS ( http://www.opendns.org/ ) ,but, for other people it was out as well. (Thats how I found out it was broken, I had a PHP program connecting to a server, and people started getting lookup errors, I did a cachecheck on the site, and it changed to "DOES NOT RESOLVE".

hmm... I use OpenDNS as well...

Yesterday seemed fine to me, but today I've been having odd intermittent problems with getting the forum pages to load up.

Here's the server status page, which isn't always totally accurate, but may help someone interpret what is going on! ;

Yep.. There was an outage.. DNS servers might be going crazy.. One of the staff's servers are offline..
