@Wash,
dig knec.ac.ke any
shows the domain is hosted by wananchi online. not sure if they are the same guys hosting the knec website though. But I doubt the problem is with the service provider. Even if they dedicated ALL bandwidth to the knec site (as the minister had claimed on TV) the single point failure is likely to be the ka-box itself. I highly doubt it would scale up to meet say 500,000 hits per minute from maybe what it was doing at 100hits per month.
the worst bit is, that this happened last year, and its likely to happen again next year. typical african syndrome - what's the big deal? You will get your results somewhat, someday anyway.. :-(
walu.

Now, with the KNEC website down and the SMS 5052 not even answering a single query, what is the way forward?
Who is hosting the website?
Who is the SMS provider?
Both must be charged with sabotage!
