Hackers take down GoDaddy.com with DNS attack!!

[DrGonzo]

Just a heads up to you IT people out there. GoDaddy.com's DNS servers are down due to a DNS attack.

So anyone that has a domain name registered with them, you will not ba able to access your site unless you have a dedicated IP.

I use godaddy for name registration

no DNS issues here so far

[Mitoska]

www.3000GTSUPPY.com is also godaddy

[Alan92RTTT]

Firefox can't find the server at www.3000gtsuppy.com.

[Alan92RTTT]

I bet 3sgto is ok because 3sgto is its own DNS server.

www.3000GTSUPPY.com is also godaddy

Guessing you meant "supply"...which works fine.

LOL missed that.

The clients I have that used GoDaddy as a registrar are still working. They are not hosted with GoDaddy (ew, who would ever do that).

We had a handful of clients report the outage (of 7000+). It was most likely only 1 DNS node they took down seeing how sporadic the outage was. Started at 10am PT and looks to have cleared up 3-4pm PT.

Have any of you guys had much experience with other registrars?

Most of the time I recommend GD for their discounts every now and again, and I've rarely had problems with them as far as registrations go. I am kind of curious about the others though.
