    Seems the reseller I use has been affected, at least that's as far as I can gather. My sites are completely unreachable. Hopefully they can get this sorted ASAP.

    Hey, stuff like that happens. You can't really be mad at the hosting company as they are doing their best to fix the problem.

    I had some sites hosted there in 2003 :eek: Hurricane Rita almost took out the Planet in 2005.

    I'm wondering if any of the servers have been damaged?

    My sites are completely out of commission.

    I was able to change DNS on some sites through godaddy to point to a new temporary host where I can keep some services and notices running but waiting on propagation is killing me.... and, with my luck, about the time they propagate to the new temp server, my original server at the planet will probably come back online and I'll have to wait for dns propagation all over again.

    Yep all my sites were effected as well, I have a whole 2 sites running out of 30+ at the moment.

    I actually bought new hosting and moved one of my sites over, idea was to move half to the new service... problem is I didn't take copies of the MySQL DB's so I'm stuck waiting like a lot of others.

    Will your new host resolve such a huge problem as quickly as theplanet.com is trying to?
