Yesterday (7 Jan 2008) at approximately  4:00pm Malaysian Time, The DNS server of TM Net has lost its uplink and therefore served the catchall DNS entries of all known web site with a timeout of 7 days in cache to its default DNS Not found page causing a lot of confusions and panic to websites owners all over the nation. Though no official news from TM Net has been released on this matter, things has got slightly out of hand at the press room when the press web site seems to be offline all over the nation. Their web site www.streamyx.com.my is still affected from certain connection in Kuching and a lot of .gov.my site is still not accessible from the town of Tawau. This problem will persist until the DNS cache has timed out or the modem been switched off.

There were nothing official from TM regarding the problem which could have been caused by a human error.
