BlazeStigma 4 Posted February 27, 2018 5 minutes ago, Elijah Pyrithea said: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial-of-service_attack Distributed DoS attack. A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attackoccurs when multiple systems flood the bandwidth or resources of a targeted system, usually one or more web servers. Such an attack is often the result of multiple compromised systems (for example, a botnet) flooding the targeted system with traffic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However we're all running traceroutes over here and seeing it fail at level3. Not only that, level3's bgp looking glass service is unreachable for the phoenix site. Either way, LL is not getting hit by a DDoS. Level3 might, but the amount of power that's needed to take down something like a Level3 hop is pretty impressive.

AliciaMarieJames 38 Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) "... and welcome to another exciting edition of SLT. Today's cover story is all about LL and how they have to deal with today's latest possible DDoS. Could it be caused from several butthurt, permabanned rejects? Mining Crypto-currency? Or could it be that LL needs to stop focusing upon Sansar? Our reporters have the latest as we switch over to our reporter who is live outside LL with the latest on this developing story." Joking aside, we know this is going to take time to resolve and no one is a happy camper about it. We're certainly not happy that this problem is becoming an ongoing one, nor is anyone from LL happy about it. The best we can do is hope LL can resolve this problem or problems or they'll need to hire people who know how to resolve these problems.

I joined SL in May, 2014, and the longest I can ever remember login problems occurring before was maybe four hours. But it has now been more than *twenty* hours since the login problems first started yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
West Habercom 14 Posted February 27, 2018 If it is a DDOS attack (and some say it isn't)... it's not easy to resolve and in some cases depending on how bad it is, can take days to resolve. All everyone needs is patience. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

animats 2,237 Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) The login server, or connectivity to it, seems to be the problem. I'm getting timeouts trying to log into the Linden Labs JIRA, as well as SL itself. The JIRA and the SL world use the same login system. "secondlife.marketplace.com" isn't even responding to ping. Edited February 27, 2018 by animats More info.
