That's over an hour of downtime, but there wasn't anything on the Canonical status page.

I can't replicate the problem anymore, but here is the output of several commands during the interruption:

Remote file exists and could contain further links,
but recursion is disabled -- not retrieving.
My questions:
Was this due to Ubuntu server downtime, some kind of transient DNS problem from my ISP, or something else entirely?
In case of future interruptions, how should I distinguish Ubuntu server downtime from a DNS problem?
Is there a place I can go to check the status of a subdomain like
us.archive.ubuntu.com?
