It was an unplanned outage. I did not find out until The Sheriff texted me this morning. Hopefully the host offers some recompense for the down time. Thanks for your patience and support of the 'Pen.

DNS issues shouldn't happen but still do and even to huge companies. I'd ask for compensation, definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it does happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can assure you our domain did not and will not expire. This was a problem at enom, the folks paid to maintain the domains for a number of hosting companies.

This caused a large chunk of the internet to go down while the routers reconfigured around the break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
