2013 - October

Some users are reporting they are unable to access TRP, receiving either DNS error messages or 404 Page Not Found messages.

Updated by Admin Martin on Monday 28 October at 17h50GMT/12h50EST

Our systems admin, Barry, has confirmed that the TRP server is running normally, although it was crawled by an unknown bot yesterday (28 Oct 2013), which generated a huge amount of network traffic (well huge for TRP anyway).

However, it remains the case that for some users, the web is unable to resolve our domain name TheReevesProject.org to an IP Address, rendering the site inaccessible for those users.  Investigation continues...

Following changes to DNS entries, which globally propagated overnight (UK time) 29/30 October, normal service has been resumed. After a few quick spot checks, the status reflected here was updated at 06h50GMT
