Hi,
From around 02:50 for about 1 hour there was an outage of the
authoritative DNS service on a.authns.bitfolk.co.uk. Those of you
making use of the service probably could not fail to notice as you
will have received PROBLEM and then RECOVERY alerts about it for
each domain.
This was simply due to me making a mistake in a firewall rule. :( It
was a bit more complicated than that as it didn't take effect until
hours after some other change I made and even while seeing the
alerts myself it took me some time to work out exactly what had
happened.
Auth. DNS service was still working on {b,c}.authns.bitfolk.com so
this shouldn't have had too bad an effect on actual service.
Somewhat ironically, this happened due to work I was doing to
isolate a.authns to make it safer to make changes! Once that is
completed it should be harder to break it in this fashion.
Apologies for the disruption,
Andy
