[coinotron]

what is nvc port,i really cant do it,plz help me,3ks

Port: 9322 or 8322

In order to mine NVC on GPU you should use cgminer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.0

Seems more like the server is completely offline.... 

[modcom]

Any news on when you'll be back up??   

[hanzac]

It seems that NVC is striking weapon at least. This attack will make me believe that it has much interest in it!

[coinotron]

Coinotron is still under DDOS attack.

[Zedster]

Pay the NVC ransom?

[crazy_rabbit]

Shame. Coinotron has nothing to do with it. 

[12gaFacelift]

and 3 people say to me we dont need new pool for the  Alternate cryptocurrencies ........

[Negcreep]

So BTC-e is back up. Says something about they destroyed a bunch of novacoins.

So what? I just want to mine LTC on a decent pool again!

Any news on when coinotron will be back up?

this attack is stupid, COINOTRON is neutral, great in supporting every altcoin, and the only one in most cases.
It has a superb support and high quality service. its NOT pushing or promoting or favorizing novacoin in any way. coinotron also quickly adapted trc and frc. you are hurting safety and diversification of all coins by atacking such a great part of our comunity as coinotron. ddos nvc checkpoint nodes or smth but leave coinotron alone.

Often times those that DDOS aren't exactly too high up on the IQ food chain.  They're more reactionaries.  Sure, there is a time and a place for a DDOS attack, but this certainly isn't one of them.

So is anything being done about this attack? I havent mine TRC in more than a day....

To be honest the only solution is to wait. Attackers paid for certain amount of "ddosing time". We have to wait until they run out of money. Otherwise we have to buy ddos protection which would cost us much more that attackers paid. It is sad but it is true.
PS
ISP doesn't help a lot. They are periodically disconnecting our server from internet because they are "protecting" their network.

I'm completely ignorant on how much this kind of stuff costs.  How much would you "wild ballpark guess" that a DDOS like this would cost, and how much would the DDOS protection cost? And who would you pay the DDOS protection cost to?  Your server hosting company?
