Are all of these Rainbow websites down?

[solaraxi]

Hi,
I tried to click one the weblinks from http://nyrainbow.org/ but can't access any of them. I also tried using links from other websites around the net, but they all seem to be down or something. As far as I know these sites are on different servers. Just wondering if anyone knows what's up? Could this be a problem with my ISP or something? These are the links I tried but they didn"t work:

i couldn't get any of those sites up either, from the nyrainbow site links or separately. hopefully its temporary.

ok..that is odd..i know he mirrors are seperste servers, but are set up to automaticaly duplicate the content on the main server.. however that should not cause connections to be refusedon all servers..i'm guessing it must be an attack by hackers or something..thats the only thing i csan think of that would target several remote servrs on different networks,
i'lll look into it & update soon as i find anything

Just tried it... welcomehome.org worked, both by clicking on the primary site link and mirror site links on the welcomehome.org page. However, the mirror sites as linked to in your post did not work.

Also, the nyrainbow link posted above worked as well...

Might have been a problem with their sites, might have been routine maintenance....

they were down just a few hours..all seem to be working fine again..proby the agr archives were being restored or something..i know the site is several gigs because he (they) also host the archives of every post to agr which is a very very active newsgroup
