GoDaddy (Domain Control Panel) down?

[bulga]

Is it just me or is everyone else also not able to access the Domain Control Panel on GoDaddy?

https://dcc.godaddy.com

seems to forward to

https://idp.godaddy.com

which is down!

It's curious how this happens on the same day NameCheap has its promo of $3.98 transfers for up to 50 domains...

Yes, it's forwarding to idp.godaddy.com, but I'm logging in without a problem. No delay. Could be regional; I'm in New England.

Edit: Looks like idp is just the authentication server. Once I log in, I'm back on dcc. Try logging in elsewhere, then going to dcc.

nevermind... it's UP again!
though it had been down for at least half an hour

I'm not seeing any significant reports of internet attacks right now. Biggest is ~50 Gbps, staying within the US.

Never mind, the internet just got really busy. Looks like you may have noticed the early signs of a large DDoS attack.

Depending on where the server is located, the horrendous weather in the U.S. may be affecting much of the nation. Some of Go Daddy's servers may be located in these areas.

We had an inch of ice on our car and sidewalk, and normal life in our Pennsylvania city has pretty much stopped.
