Title: Nameserver problems
Post by: Rick on Nov 17, 2007, 18:14:47
The folks who look after the OAS domain and emails have been having a few problems today.

Symptoms include emails being delayed, and the websites not being found.

You can (with luck) get their latest status information here (https://www.123-reg.co.uk/status.pl).

Now I know why I have been able to get on the forum but not on the website all day long.

It was a really bizarre mix of failures. Half the domain information was accessible, and the other half was reporting all sorts of negative stuff. :evil: I suppose that might have been down to DNS caches variously holding and forgetting stuff... :roll:
