Hi all,

The UK academic network (JANET) is currently experiencing major issues due to a large scale distributed denial of service attack. Although this does not affect services on-site at YNiC it does affect users on-site trying to access services off-site and users off-site trying to access YNiC services on-site (such as VPN, remote desktop, wiki etc).

Jisc (who maintain JANET) are publishing occasional updates to their twitter feed here:

Unfortunately they have no ETA on a resolution at this time.

Thanks, Paul.
