slackware.com server down?


Sorry if this was repeated somewhere already. Since last night I haven't been able to connect to the slackware.com server @ 64.57.102.34. Is the server down by any chance or is there anything else going on (i.e. server install update)?

Thanks!

Hehe, it's funny. Every time the main site goes down, there will be a post here about it.

Yeah it's down for me too, but I'm sure they're probably working on it. And if not, they'll read this post and get to it.

I noticed the website was down this morning. The ftp site is still up though. Nothing in the change log, so no need to visit it today anyway.

They are probably doing maintenance on the server. No big deal.

Seems to me, last time it went down, it came back up with a new release inside it -- not to get anyones hopes up

Is the chanting helping?
My throat's getting sore, and the neighbours are complaining.

I'd sacrifice a virgin, but there aren't any left in Oldham.
