Dallas servers unavailable (updates)

Starting at 10:41am, sites are intermittently unavailable – this affects all Dallas based servers.

Update – Virtbiz is working on the problem. The preliminary report is that it appears to be a DOS attack from somewhere in the Czech Republic.

Update 2 -  As of 11:11am things seems to have calmed down and the sites are all online. None of our servers themselves were affected however the connectivity to them was. I will post an update with the news from Virtbiz when I have one.
