Re: Dynadot down
Someone should register dynadotstatus.com (It's FREE) and offer it to Dynadot to keep us updated next time! (Dreamhoststatus.com alike)

Re: Dynadot down
Near 200 recently transferred domains of mine were missing following the outage. Sent them an email yesterday about the issue. Today all the domains are back.
None of mine were too close to expiration though. It may take them a while to get to all the problems. Hopefully they will.

Re: Dynadot down
I was very lucky in this instance.
Because I'm away from mission control for this week, I did all my renewals, etc at Dynadot prior to leaving so didn't get hit by doing things within or just prior to the "lost days".
Well, I'm pretty sure that's the case. I can't really tell for sure until I get back.

They will trust your word on it? Take for instance transfer, if there's no money involved and records are missing...
Anyway instead of dynadotstatus.com they went for dynadot.info

Re: Dynadot down
So the outward facing webserver _AND_ the database server went down to a hardware failure??? That implies that they were on the same machine! 
No problem for joe average website but really, incredibly, horribly bad strategy for a registrar! I've been splitting my domains between dynadot and moniker, but my confidence has truly been shaken. Paying a little bit more doesn't really sound so bad...

Re: Dynadot down
With Dynadot like this and Domainsite prices, its a sad think to do, but I think I'll be going back to GoDaddy.

Re: Dynadot down
I think this has been a nice wake-up call to them and they'll be making some serious changes.

No matter how cheap Godaddy are, I just cannot stand their new interface/control panel. Half the time I cannot even access my control panel - I get a PAGE NOT FOUND message. I dont know what made them decide to have a page that has 18 million pieces of javascript and other BS that does nothing but to bloat the page and screw things up.
I have a few hundred domains at Godaddy ( 99.9% Ascii ) that I am going to start transfering over to Dynadot.
The only disappointing thing for me with this Dynadot episode was their lack of communication. Luckily for me, I was away from my pc the entire time the crash happened, so was not affected at all by it.

I just cannot bring myself to have what I consider professional valuable domain names at a registrar that sounds like it was named after some porn movie

Spend some quality time with Jose and Alpha next time you go to a domain conference. They'll happily give you a demo.

Re: Dynadot down
ITS NOT FAIR! The difference between Bulk and SuperBulk pricing is now much bigger!
