Topic awaiting preservation: The Asylum Outage

OK...I'm not too sure what's been happening over the last 4 hours or so, but I know I and several other people haven't been able to access the asylum.

Fro mthe fact that other dreamhosted pages either didn't work or have loaded very, very slowly (as the asylum is doing for me now) I'm guessing that dreamhost is having some difficulties. Would one of the asylumites who actually has a line to dreamhost tech support care to shed some light on the subject?

well, my site thespacebetweenus (which is also on dreamhost) doesn't work either. also not elysiumart. the asylum didn't appear at all for me....right now its working.....but it is extremly slow, like you described. seems like dreamhost has some hard problems.

Would appear all is back to normal.

Things are still really slow (or were just prior to my posting this ).

ah finally! everything seems to be working again!

that was the problem:

We are currently experiencing severe network degradation on one of our routers. Access to all
services is currently sporadic and slow. Basic diagnostics and maintenance have not improved
the situation. One of our network engineers is working on the problem at this moment. We will
have full network access restored as soon as possible.

It's been crappy all day (a bunch of my stuff is hosted at DH). Thanks for the answer, I couldn't reach Dreamhost at all.

well... one post on webhostingtalk is apperantly a copy of a dreamhost mail claiming that it was a ddos. Mas?

chances are, the old grail beta at coonabibba won't be around next time the asylum has such a downtime...
