People if you have a backup pool you may want to use it temporarily as aggregate hashing power is way down. Looks like deepbit is having trouble also.

Sad. I had backup on deepbit, but it also under attack, so I use to another pool  |

Sad. I had backup on deepbit, but it also under attack, so I use to another pool Looks like all large pools are being targeted. Go for a small pool or solo mine. The 3 rigs I have on slush I dropped to solo. The two rigs on bitminter (small pool) are unaffected. |

It was large scale DDoS, but pool is back up. IP has been changed, please check that your miners connected correctly. I made one small mistake with fixing website, so it will be up in one hour as well. Edit: As a hotfix, http://api.bitcoin.cz works as website access, too. However SSL certificate is invalid because of different domain, of course. |

BTCguild is having intermittent connection issues as well. Is everyone under attack? |
If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system.

There is still one balancer restart ongoing, but it will be up in less than one minute. So don't panic for few connection errors (it's enough that I'm panicking  |

Yes, looks like it is an attack to all major pools. Personally I don't understand this effort. Except that is fed up some people like me, because reconfiguring pool is stupid and boring job, it has no long term effect on Bitcoin economy. |

My miners still will not connecting to Slush. Using the pull down to select Slush in gui miner. Should I switch it to other and input the ip manually?

Think it went down again, connected after it was up, checked back and it was back at connection problems.

Pool is under attack, I'm working on it. Sorry for downtime . omg, wtf, not @ you slush but the fuckheads doing this. I've lost 5 hours of mining I believe, waste of power.

I'm sorry for 3minute outage on api2.bitcoin.cz and website, it is again working now.
Website is still down. I'm very confident you'll get it all sorted. |

"Hm, attack moved to new location." means - attack moved to new pool instances. |

Sorry but I don't comprehend "means - attack moved to new pool instances". Any better way to describe that in layman terms? Thanks Slush. |

I have a feeling this attack will continue for a while. Slush, is there no way to filter out all other non registered IP connections? Ie allow connections only from pool miners based on their last known IP address - most people don't refresh their IP often.
