Title: Forum down and back up Post by: jfreak53 on June 28, 2012, 11:42:49 PM Is it anyone else or just me but the forum has been off and back on again for the past two days. I just now got access to it after not being able to get on since yesterday morning, it has been out for me all that time.
Now it work's but way tooo slow, plus once I get done posting this it might go out again ha ha I have tried two proxies of my own, one in Chicago and one in Denver, still no go. Just as a head's up, plus it's very slow, has been getting slower for about a week now.

So ya, it's been having issues. Great, so it's being taken care of. Note to self... it's amazing on how efficient we're starting to pass information between each other Title: Re: Forum down and back up Post by: jfreak53 on June 29, 2012, 03:06:01 AM Hmm, thought so, oh well, I'll trying and trying and trying again to get in ha ha
Admins: Well, just so it's out there in the open ;), one of the NOCs we work with quite often, offer's Aegis DDoS Filter's for use with their unit's. So if you want to move off to a VPS unit or a Dedi and would like that type of protection PM me. Title: Re: Forum down and back up Post by: John (John K.) on June 29, 2012, 03:09:06 AM I thought the server has a good anti-ddos service as it's hosted by MTGox's servers?
Title: Re: Forum down and back up Post by: jfreak53 on June 29, 2012, 03:20:27 AM Well if it's not hardware based before the unit or a direct IP filtering mechanism then it won't do much. Aegis is IP filtering and can auto null route and switch IPs out if need be.
MTGox has been taken down by a few DDoS' also, but to be fair, no server is EVER 100% secure from DDoS (with exception of Google's DC's ;)) Title: Re: Forum down and back up Post by: Stephen Gornick on June 29, 2012, 11:44:31 PM I thought the server has a good anti-ddos service as it's hosted by MTGox's servers? Looks like the problem was from within: - http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=90465.msg997344#msg997344 |
