[LUAU] problems with RoadRunner?

2010-12-02 Thread Dwight Victor (Gmail)

Hi Folks,

Seems like RoadRunner is having some issues; anybody know what's up?  
Can't resolve any of their hostnames; even using Google or RoadRunner's 
own DNS servers.  Their customer service line is busy and their web chat 
thing showed a queue of over 200 users.  Still got connectivity, just no 
RoadRunner hosted services (i.e., mail, DNS, etc.).

It was constant problems with Road Runner that send me over to Lavanet.
At least most Linux users know how to point to different DNS servers.

Perhaps you might try OpenDNS.  You still have to deal with problems 
with other RR servers of course:

http://www.opendns.com/

I like how they list the main servers at the bottom of the front page:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Aloha,

Yeah, I'm not having trouble resolving anything as I have my own caching 
DNS server with Google's DNS as my primary nameservers.  My issue is 
that my RoadRunner email is hosed.  Even with OpenDNS' servers I can't 
resolve smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com...something is royally screwed.


-bash-3.00# dig @208.67.222.222 smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com

;  DiG 9.6.1-P1  @208.67.222.222 smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

-bash-3.00# dig @208.67.220.220 smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com

;  DiG 9.6.1-P1  @208.67.220.220 smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com
; (1 server found)

Give it time; it will come back eventually. If it's down more than 12
hours, I would demand a credit.
