goDaddy dns down ?

I had some of my domains at goDaddy. They host my DNS and also the web server. So usually I don't have any problems sleeping.. because I know that is always up and running without problems.
Today I have tried to access one of my sites and I had the surprise to see that is down. I tried a few times and after that I started investigating. The default configuration for my domains is to delegate NS1.SECURESERVER.NET and NS2.SECURESERVER.NET as name servers. I have tried to ping them and everything is OK So I made a dig on that servers and ....nothing ....

#dig ns NS1.SECURESERVER.NET @NS1.SECURESERVER.NET
;; Truncated, retrying in TCP mode.

; <<>> DiG 9.3.4 <<>> ns NS1.SECURESERVER.NET @NS1.SECURESERVER.NET
; (1 server found)
;; global options: printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached


I checked the rest of the name servers NS5.SECURESERVER.NET and NS6.SECURESERVER.NET and they re working just fine. I checked my configuration for the DNS servers NS1.SECURESERVER.NET and NS2.SECURESERVER.NET are no longer the "" and I have to change them manually to NS5 and 6.

Also I checked some other sites that I also know that are hosted at goDaddy and seem to be down also.

Am I crazy or godaddy name servers are down ?


If you have your domain with goDaddy I highly recommend you to check also and see if evrything is OK.

Hello,
I'm also down in two Godaddy different domains. Has anyone made any change to make it work again?
