[SAS~Storebror]

Hi gents,

You might have noticed already that SAS was seemingly "down" for a couple of hours.
There's been a wave of fake domain registrations launched against our hoster who implemented countermeasures accordingly, but unfortunately one of them ran wild a bit and caused the DNS service to crash and subsequently fail to restart.
As a result, worldwide ISPs failed to resolve the name "sas1946.com" to our server's IP address and you consequently couldn't reach our website anymore.

The issue has been solved meanwhile, and everything should be back up and running.
In case you come back late and wonder why it took you another 1 or 2 hours to reach us: DNS propagations isn't an instantaneous thing, it can take a while to reach the far ends of the globe.

... THX for the explanation, Mike ... 

... in fact early this morning I mailed my friend Epervier about the issue, and he told me the site was maybe under maintenance, but in that case we usually get a message, so I thought the issue probably was with the hoster, in which case there was nothing that we could do, except cross our fingers ...

That's reassuring.

Thanks for the explanation.
