So this morning I had problems getting to TypeKey. I got an IM from Les that he was unable to get to SEB — but I was.
After about 20-30 minutes, I had TypeKey back, and all seemed well.
Then, about 15 minutes ago (as I write this), I lost contact with hill-kleerup.org. Plus average-bear.com. Heck, with hyperion.hmdnsgroup.com, the real server behind both of us. Nor could I get to SEB any more. On the other hand, HM’s status page showed Hyperion doing just fine. And I could get to plenty of other sites.
My thought: Katrina’s power outages and telcomm disruptions are having more far-reaching effects than just the storm-affected areas. (And if that’s the only inconvenience I suffer from Katrina, I count myself blessed …)

Actually a double shot of DoS, but good on you for not even noticing.
Huh, weird. Esp. since I’m not on Medea, and I had at times at least one other non-HM site that I had problems getting to.
I did go into the Nagios site and look at the servers at the morning problem, and didn’t see any difficulties with Hyperion. I *think* I did so again this afternoon when I couldn’t get to me, and again didn’t see any warnings.
That said, if that’s what was causing the problem, kudos as usual to the HM folks who made it all better again.
