All clients which were previously connected are in whitelist now.

I am still unable to connect, (using pull down in gui to slect Slush, so not sure if I need to put in dif server for you) coming from a 98.70.*.* Block(s)

edit; tried again 2 minutes after posting and now it is in. >.<

Yay, first block since DDoS started. It was almost 17 hour round, insane. Initally thanks to bad luck and then thanks to DDoS (another kind of bad luck).

I found one issue so even you connect, you'll probably will see a lot of rejecteds. I'm working on it, will be solved in few minutes.

my guess is that those attacks are supposed to lower the difficulty as much as possible for the next round ... so maybe they stop in 75 or so blocks ...
(still just a guess though)

Pool is up again. Note that all website traffic is routing thru 3rd party DDoS mitigation service, so SSL isn't working at this moment. But it is only temporary and as all important changes on profiles must be confirmed by email, it's not so big issue.

If all the big mining pools are taken down, perhans they can quickly redirect their zombies to hashing and screw up the block chain. Is that too conspiratory or would it be realistic? As of now they have effectively halved the network computation speed: http://bitcoin.sipa.be/

Looks like them DDoS'ing sons of bitches are persistent - attack is still ongoing. I've had to move my miners elsewhere for the time being. Hope you come back online soon slush.

Best of luck to us all!

hchc: I'm in contact with company for doing ddos mitigation, however it's taking some time - it is 6am here.

Thanks for the update, Slush.

Yes, thank you! And, when do you sleep? Tongue

I assume all this action is gonna slow you down on getting the accounting done for NMC?

Isn't that kinda like asking your neighbor is he is going to return your powertools while his house is on fire?

isnt that how bitcoin works?
(my observation anyway)

Please point your miners to api3.bitcoin.cz. I'll update DNS of api.bitcoin.cz and api2.bitcoin.cz when attack will be over.

This is down now.

sadpandatech: this is large scale attack, where normal tools won't work at all. Even enterprise level firewalls are failing when DDoS come into the game (remember paypal?).
