Anyone else had problems with Duats today?

[Fearless Tower]

Filed IFR leaving ABQ for PHX this morning via Duats. Even got the confirmation email confirming that I filed the correct day/time but when I called ABQ clearance, they couldn't find it and they also couldn't find anything for another 135 guy who was trying to depart at the same time.

They were able to refile for me, but what was weird is that even then, my flight never showed up on FlightAware.

Has the govt shutdown somehow affected the computer system?

Obummer told em to "make it as painful as possible" so quite likely.

It took longer than normal this morning for a WxBrief. Other than that, no.
