sharth@mini-sharth:~$ host suse.com
suse.com has address 195.135.220.3
sharth@mini-sharth:~$ host portal.suse.com
portal.suse.com is an alias for walhalla.suse.de.
walhalla.suse.de has address 195.135.220.11
sharth@mini-sharth:~$ host store.suse.com
store.suse.com is an alias for store.wip.suse.com.
store.wip.suse.com has address 209.87.178.142
sharth@mini-sharth:~$ host suse.de
suse.de has address 195.135.220.3

seems that 195.135.220.3 is down.

Looks to me like the server has been hacked (although I'm not a network guru) cause if you try to connect to 195.135.220.11, you get an error for a bad certificate. Could it be that the wm made a fatal mistake? Or is the server being dos'ed? Or is it just a freak thing???

Still trying to become a guru at something...... ;)

The security certificate is not bad, it's just linked to the dns name of portal.suse.com, not the ip address.

It looks like the site just went down for maitanace or whatever... Or a router nearby died...
