We continue to troubleshoot network issues with our vendor, but do not currently have an estimated time for resolution. Novell file server (U: & S: drives) access is available, as is VPN access from off-campus and Internet connectivity on-campus. At any point during troubleshooting, access to these services could be interrupted.

Access to Banner, DU Self-Service, MyDenison, and the Denison web site  currently remains unavailable.

Update – 2PM:

Network troubleshooting is continuing. Network performance may be erratic and a number of services are unavailable. An update will be posted here as soon as all services are restored.

Update – 12PM:

While Denison network services were restored earlier, a further network issue occurred and they are now currently unavailable while  troubleshooting continues.
