Kendy Posted May 3, 2010 Posted May 3, 2010 I have lost a lot of members of my forum since this DDoS happened! I think that there should be a simple HTML, which say that "Sorry for inconvience, we are update server's security. Please come back after 3 days!" or something like that! It will be polite to our guess!
pFullana Posted May 3, 2010 Posted May 3, 2010 It's great to see HelioHost online again. Is there any problem with Rails? I can't see RoR in my cPanel.

It will be polite to our guess! yes I think its a good idea you can access to the Cpanel, you should write an e-mail to your users about that problem,you can copy their e-mail adresses I did the same
Ashoat Posted May 3, 2010 Author Posted May 3, 2010 Once again guys, I can't do that because it would overload our uplink and we'd end up being charged a lot (more than $1000) for the overrage. Read the thread please.
cl58 Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Are user sites back up yet? I have my domain pointing to an alternate server with a down page so I don't want to point it back to HelioHost until I am sure it is up.
Trish Claremont Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 It says "it'll be back by monday". Well... its tuesday. Any more estimates for soon, or should we start to venture off towards more reliable venues?
Wizard Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 It says "it'll be back by monday". Well... its tuesday. Any more estimates for soon, or should we start to venture off towards more reliable venues? Really? We've been online for 5 years now. You either don't understand how hard it is for anyone to deal with a DDoS attack or you just expect too much for something that you're getting for free.
Helladamnleet Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Good to see the host back up. Hopefully the sites will be back up soon too! I bet [bleeped!] near everything on my wordpress needs to be updated lol. It'll be nice to not only have my site back online, but to have freshly updated plugins to play with too lol. I can't get into my cpanel still though, if that is an actual issue right now. My site is http://anonymouswebchronicle.co.cc if my issue is legit and needs to be fixed.
Byron Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 I can't get into my cpanel still though, if that is an actual issue right now. My site is http://anonymouswebchronicle.co.cc if my issue is legit and needs to be fixed. You should be able to login from the heliohost home page. http://heliohost.org
Ashoat Posted May 4, 2010 Author Posted May 4, 2010 Sorry guys, still not up There was an issue in one of the transfer scripts. I'm working on it, and I'll give you an update ASAP.
sheryo Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 Stop complaining, remember that this is a freewebhost and let the admins do their job Thank you and good luck djbob
smiller.sacco Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Don't worry, buddy. We're all in your support. Thank you being such an excellent free hosting provider! I think that we can all agree that, since this is free, we do not need to count on 100% uptime. Hey, for us with no money to start with, it's great to be able to have something free to be able to use!
xroft Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Hello, I have some troubles with update DNS records on my own domain aztec.net.ru into registrator's panel I recieve that message: Вы должны указать по крайней мере два DNS-сервера, находящихся в различных сетях класса 'C' - ОШИБКА! in english: you must enter two DNS-servers that stays in different networks class 'C' - ERROR!

I must write you in PM? sorry for my bad english
electromoth Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Great, HelioHost and HelioNet are back! I am really relieved to see your pages up again. The good news mentioned by djbob in the first post sound pretty cool! By the way, I'd like to mention that although Stevie is (or was) experiencing heavy load, my website had a quick behaviour. Thanks a lot, djbob, and good luck fixing the DDoS attack. electromoth
