Interesting game the I.T. big boys are playing

Wondered why my no-ip hostnames have stopped working till I found this.

I think it is a case of my d!$% is bigger than your d!$%. Have to go back to using IP's until it is resolved (pun intended)

Yeah my servebeer.com hostnames have become active again in the last 1/2 hour. I had to go searching for my IP's, had no idea what they were without logging in to no-ip.com. Just shows how lazy we become.
