Your plan is already upgraded to Gold.

my account still has not been upgraded according to my WHM panel
I have the starter package reseller account.
I was expecting the Standard package.

I lost 14 domains due to crash, I still haven't bothered in putting them back up.
I was waiting to see if you were going to honor the upgrade.
Before I put all that work in restoring them.

I noticed you installed Fantasico, Thanks for that. I've been wanting that
for a while I almost paid for it.

thanks guys - DM

main domain: mcmurtrey.us

Thanks for all your hard work!

The server my site is on has been down a lot in the last 24 hours or so. Could you please let me know what the situation is? Not sure about the actual server (I started my account about three weeks ago).

I don't mean to whinge but I'm doing a lot of development & keep getting interrupted.

Thanks,

Libby

Your site works for me and it is visible:

We didn't have any issues with your server recently

I am just wondering if I qualifies for this compensation as well. My domain is gothookups.net

Thanks.
Stanly
No, your account is located at the server 16

Ive been having a lot of downtime the last week or 2. For instance, for the last hour, from http://dnsstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=d...lder.org&type=A I get

same thing for my other domain, computingasyoulikeit.com

are there some problems I need to know about ?

(It's up *most* of the time, but when it goes down, it seems to have problems for 1/2 hr to an hour at a time)
dingfelder
ouch. I found a tool that grades the reliability of the site.

http://www.dnsstuff.com/ gives me a F grade sad.gif


I tried with another domain (www.pittsburgband.com) and it was so poor, it could not even give an F.

Sorry, I could not continue.
dragonfli
yeah all my domains got f grades as well; perhaps
you should have alec or somebody look into dns problems, most notably my secondary dns server kept timing out. I will have to submit a second trouble ticket over that nameserver because the ip address change they recomended only worked for a short time
and the timouts are back again.
I have faith in you to fix everything tho!
Alexandre
No, we have not problems with server 20.
All works fine.
It was a planned reboot for system purposes.
We did fschk - file system checking.
Sorry for caused inconveniences.
dragonfli
I'm glad server 20 is fine, dns problems remain (maybe just branded, I don't know)

cyberarts.us. A IN 14400 207.44.244.81 cyberarts.us. NS IN 14400 ns1.dragonflihost.net. cyberarts.us. NS IN 14400 ns2.dragonflihost.net. ns1.dragonflihost.net. A IN 14400 207.44.245.187 ns2.dragonflihost.net. A IN 14400 64.74.112.92

Looking up at NS1.DRAGONFLIHOST.NET.... [Had to look up A record for ns1.dragonflihost.net; assume +200ms]...Reports 1 A record(s). 237ms.
Looking up at NS2.DRAGONFLIHOST.NET.... [Had to look up A record for ns2.dragonflihost.net; assume +200ms]...Timed out.


Average of all 2 nameservers: 1719ms (plus 399ms overhead).

Score: F

Took off 8 points for ".us" TLD (extra lookups likely will be necessary to find the parent servers).
Took off 8 points for having no glue at a parent server [adds 2 extra packets to lookup].
Took off 6 points for having no glue for ns1.dragonflihost.net [adds 2 extra packets to lookup].
Took off 2 points since ns1.dragonflihost.net allows recursive lookups (if lots of people are using the server, it can slow down).
Took off 6 points for having no glue for ns2.dragonflihost.net [adds 2 extra packets to lookup].
Took off 15 points for a nameserver timeout at ns2.dragonflihost.net (causes lengthy delays and extra packets).
Took off 2 points since ns2.dragonflihost.net allows recursive lookups (if lots of people are using the server, it can slow down).
Took off 25 points for >700ms average response time.

This is the wrong place for this I realize
I just thought the gentleman's problem may have had more to do with dns than server, so I commented.
Alexandre
As for me all is okay
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/tracert.ch?ip=cyberarts.us
dragonfli
I agree!
as long as the secondary nameserver is just needed for show (since it doesn't work)
that's why it's not a critical issue for me.
If the primary nameserver goes down, all will not be well
but what are the chances of my ever needing the secondary nameserver?
Like I said it's not critical, just sloppy dns
the webs full of that sort of thing.
Vanya
Please open a ticket on this.
We'll correct dns issue you have.
It can realy in some cases turn into a problem.

All my domains were completely inaccessable for over 2 hours.

I hope you are not saying a reboot takes everything down for hours.

Please tell me that something else was going on
magicmycote
One of my domains, voteava.com, was on one of the affected servers but it has not been upgraded/compensated. Can someone please look into this? Thx.
phobos
Dear magicmycote please open new trouble ticket about this question.
