Dear customer,

We regret to inform you that MHS will definitely close.

We suffer for a few days now, attacks "ddos" which prevents us from providing a good service. Unfortunately there is no real protection against this type of attack.
I think you see, we're not the only ones to be attacked.

It was very difficult to make this decision, but we have no choice.

So from today, there will be no new customers or renewal.

For existing customers, nothing changes, it will remain at MHS until the end of their contracts and there will be no refund.

We are sincerely sorry for this bad new.

An attached file to show you the attacks we have.

Thank you all for your understanding.
Sam

Sad to see that some stupid persons are ruining other's projects by ddosing and thinking that so they will become something in their live.

Wait for them to get out of their bedroom and they will smash their face into the door.

Good luck with everything , you really deserve it.

Another ddos attack, if your server is not online,
thank you to stop it 2 min then restart.

Sorry for this inconvenience!
Sam

Sorry to hear this as trying to find a well run hosting company to supply me with my 2 servers, as you are doing, is getting harder.

Until my servers do run out of contract, many thanks for the quick and easy way you set up my servers and for fixing them when I made silly changes that crashed the servers, and for the no hassle support you've given me.

Next month I am going to install a hardware firewall and if I find the solution to counter his attacks, I would open again MHS.

"fingers crossed"

We hope u find the solution!

Hello all,

After many messages of support, we have decided to reopen MHS.
It is true that it was stupid to close MHS just for ddos attacks.

Now we not want to pleasure the person who makes his attacks.
We ordered a cisco firewall, which should be functional for the next month.

Now the site is accessible again and you can either renew or either take a new servers
mhservers.net

Thank you all for your messages of support

I understand where his attacks come, I begin to gather evidence..

Well, I talk to the owner of the IP concerned and he got hacked.
So we can not prove anything..

I don't think a baby Cisco ASA firewall would help against a DDOS, to be honest.

I know this is not the best solution, but it's better than nothing.

If I won a lot of money I could get a server with 10 GB of bandwidth and a large hard drive ssd, but this is not the case.
and standard firewalls: like D-Guard are useless.

So if I could protect from small attack, it will be good.

Hello everyone,

We inform you that we will have a more powerful server.
This is why between 5th May and 6th May 2013, we will move all MHS customers on the new server.

This development aims to provide you a best quality server.

The duration of this maintenance should not exceed one hour per server.

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused
MHS

Little information on the server change,
it is possible that you do not have access to the control panel for a short duration. about 20 minutes
Thank you for your understanding!

All server have been moved and started, and you have also received an email with the login.

exactly

"For the record" (it has been clarified meanwhile via PM), I was asking about an existing "demo" server that I could connect to, in order to see how it "moves" (lag/ping mainly).

Both my servers (Sin'rs and Sin'rs too) have been missing from LFS Master Server List for last couple of days.

Also, at the same time, I have been unable to access the MHServers login panel, nor have I been able to connect to servers via ftp.

This another DoS attack or something else?
