Both the Buddhist DharmaWheel and the DammaWheel sites appear to be down today. Both of them are giving me an "access denied" error when I try to go to them.

At least the DharmaWheel site was working about 24 hours ago, I logged in then.

Today neither one seems to be working.

Anyone have any information on what's happening?

Hoping we don't have a repeat of the e-sangha site hacking problems of a few years ago.

UPDATE

I just found this notice on another Buddhist site.

Good news, Dhammawheel/Dharmawheel and the other web sites have not been hacked.

According to Dhammawheel's Facebook page

All the dhamma.com associated sites are down! Here's the problem:

We got too big!!

We are receiving tens of thousands of hits per day to sites such as Dhamma Wheel, Dharma Wheel, and Dhamma Wiki.

I am currently in conversation with the web hosting company and will be upgrading to a private server or possibly a dedicated server, which should solve everything and put us back online. Sorry for the inconvenience.
