[HH#826469] Unable to connect

[HelioHost]

Username: thesage1, Server: Johnny, Main domain: thesage1.heliohost.org

 

=E2=80=8BMy HelioHost name is thesage1 on Johnny and I have a domain that w=

hen I go to

it, it says, "Unable to connect". I can ping my domain, I can ftp to the

server, and I can login to HelioHost, so what could be wrong?

 

Thanks,

Andrew

What is wrong is Johnny is currently under a ddos attack. I have moved you to a different ip address on Johnny that should work a little better, but the best option is to switch servers completely.

So how do I switch to a different server?

 

Also, do you have any details for why the DDOS attack is occurring?

The site should start working again on its own.

 

We have no idea on why we're being attacked, but one possible reason is that it's a phisher retaliating for us banning him, who forgot to stop his attack. Usually these only last a few days, this one's been going on for weeks. The attacks started coming right around the time we mass-banned a pile of phishing domains that were being registered in the new free .ooo TLD.
