FYI – There is a very brief maintenance period each night during the backup where the site may be off line for a moment. However last night may have been a bit longer (like more than the usual 30 seconds but less than a few minutes) due to a DOS attack slightly after 4 am around the same time as the nightly backup. Our firewall with Rackspace attempts to block IP’s but in some cases where the IP can not be identified it shuts down the site temporarily to stop the attack.
Live Free!

Subject: [Lnc-business] lp.org down
To those interested, lp.org is currently down.
Unless we're getting DOS-ed, then this would seem to be a fairly significant problem that our DB can't handle our connections.
I've attached a screenshot of the problem; I don't know specifically who to send to.
Thanks.
Kevin
