Server DNS Error

The news server domain names are returning DNS lookup errors even though the servers are running. This appears to be a problem with my Usenet provider. As a temporary workaround, the nyc, phx and ams subdomains have been updated to point directly to the IP addresses so they should work again in another couple hours or so. If you need to access the news servers before then, you can use the IP addresses directly:

ams: 68.142.88.120
nyc: 69.28.186.125
phx: 69.28.173.186

This same DNS problem is causing the bandwidth usage page to fail. This will be fixed when my provider corrects their DNS records.

The addresses started to work again at around 5 this morning.
