Help, cant connect to IRC server

[Question]

i cant connect to the IRC server the enworld chan is on. Specifically : chat.psionics.net

I was in the channel, then BAM, "software caused connection abort", and now everytime i try to reconnect it says connection refused. Whats going on?

Neither can I. The server has probably crashed, for reasons unknown to me. We had a crash last night, too, but got over it pretty fast.

Perhaps Bynw could shed light on the subject...

Not sure why it went down (Bynw may have more information later), but we are up now.

Ok gang. X says we are up and he is correct in that.
Sorry for the problems but here is what happened.

Yesterday, there was an outage with our primary backbone provider which was causing the time outs when attempting to connect. That has been fixed!

Today, we had a dll go out on us unexpectedly which caused the server software to crash and needed a manual restart. I work for a living and have no remote access at work. So that had to wait until I was home to fix. I will be looking into what cased the dll to crash.
