Notice of Service Interruption : On Friday Feb. 26, at 7:00am there will be a
   2 hour
   outage of the secondary DNS (Domain Name Server) server
   draco.ccs.yorku.ca (IP address 130.63.237.99).

   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, in most cases, not notice
   any change in network service levels.

   Users who have configured their computers with 130.63.237.99
   (draco.ccs.yorku.ca) as their primary and only DNS server
   will likely suffer a complete outage on all internet applications.

   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).

   If your DNS search order is the same as the configurations above, you
   should not be affected by this service outage.

   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]).
