On Friday January 29, at 6:30am there will be a 30 minute
outage of the primary DNS (Domain Name Server) server
deadtech.ccs.yorku.ca (IP address 130.63.168.21).

The DNS server is used by internet applications to convert host
names to network IP addresses.

Users who have correctly configured their computers with the
IP addresses of all three DNS servers will likely experience delays
on all internet connections during the server outage.

Users who have configured their computers with 130.63.168.21
(deadtech.ccs.yorku.ca) as their primary and only DNS server
will likely suffer a complete outage on all internet connections.

CCS strongly suggests that York Main Campus users configure
their machines to use the following search sequence for the DNS
servers:

   130.63.168.21 (deadtech.ccs.yorku.ca),
   130.63.237.99 (draco.ccs.yorku.ca),
   132.251.1.2 (ns2.admin.crestech.ca).

The DNS configuration for Glendon users should be:

   130.63.152.14 (colossus.ccs.yorku.ca),
   130.63.168.21 (deadtech.ccs.yorku.ca),
   130.63.237.99 (draco.ccs.yorku.ca).

Questions or concerns about this DNS server outage,
or about DNS services in general, should be directed
to the CCS Helpdesk in the Steacie Science Library Building,
(voice: 736-5800, email: [log in to unmask]).
