Image/JS hoster down or unreachable

Apparently (at least) 2 of the servers responsible for serving the static images and the JavaScript are down or otherwise unreachable. Affected are www.unix.com and www.unix.com, while www.unix.com is still up. A check on this website confirmed it. Checked as of 2010-06-16 08:11 UTC.

Thanks!

Its a CDN issue (SimpleCDN) problem.

I've just moved all off the CDN and back on the main server for now. Should be OK within a hour (based on DNS TTLs).

Amazingly enough, the problem turns out to be this:

SimpleCDN simply deleted our account, without notice, warning, email, nothing....

It was quite a bizarre experience!

I found it interesting when they deleted our account after we complained about it not being fixed, 10 months after we first reported it!

Now that's really interesting customer service !!
