Update on LK Domain Registry

 Update 1

 

An issue with the .LK Domain Registration System arose early in the morning of Saturday, 6th February, which affected a few domains registered in .LK. This issue was attended to expeditiously, and the matter was resolved by approx. 8.30 a.m.

The .LK DNS system is now functioning normally. However, some names may be cached in systems outside the registry, and may appear until the cache expires.

We are currently investigating the issue, and will report as soon as concrete information is available. If you need any further information or assistance, please contact us on our hotline +94 114 216061 or e-mail hostmaster@nic.lk .

Further to our 1st Report (reproduced below), we have made further investigations on the affected system, and have not found any evidence of any additional domains (other than those initially identified) being affected by this issue.

We have also not found any evidence of any affect to any .LK website, or any information being stolen from any .LK website. However, we are continuing our investigations, and will issue further updates as needed.
