Re: Good job, Navindra!

I've not tried pinging it, but Netscape/Mozilla/IE all say "Connecting to" (or the equivalent) but fail to say "Downloading data" (or the equivalent). And since it does that not only on multiple browsers on the same machine, but multiple machines, and I can access other sites, I take that as dot.kde.org as being unreachable (at least, unreachable to me as far as downloading content via HTTP)

Does this happen every day, or just when we happen to be slashdotted? :-)

We made a technical gaff the day we were slashdotted but I think we should hold up better next time.

    Finally! It let me get on. I didn't know when the dot would be back up, so I sent you an e-mail w/ the results of my ping, since I was unable to read what you had said when you replied (I knew you replied because of the e-mail notification).

    Anyway... maybe that answers you question: it happens everyday, any time of day/night. It normally only lasts for about 5-10 minutes, but it has gone on for hours/days before.

      Truly strange, because in the meanwhile I was accessing the dot just fine. If this happens again, please send me the results of "tracert 193.103.254.20".

      Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this.

      Cheers,
      Navin.

      Ditto.

      I have the same problem at least once a day where I can't access the dot. The browser eventually times out. Give it 15 mins and usually things are back up again. I will make a note of the times this happens. Hopefully this can be sorted out..
