Submitted by admin on Friday, 23 January 2009No Comment

Network Solutions is having problems with “all” its name servers, according to their tech support and a recent post on North American Network Operators’ Group (NANOG) mailing list indicates that it has been under very large-scale UDP/53 DDoS attack for the last 48 hour period. As a result, domain names hosted with Network Solutions’ Worldnic have been affected. [CircleID]
