According to a posting in the German ixHash forum, generic.ixhash.net was deprecated since end of 2014 (it still answered, but was not updated any more), so maybe it went completely offline now. [2] also lists hosteurope.ixhash.net and ixhash.spameatingmonkey.net. as being shut down, which leaves ix.dnsbl.manitu.net as the only remaining ixhash source (I know of). It is operated by the German hosting company manitu, which is not a big player, but reputable, known as reliable and exists for more than 20 years, and they have partners[3] to run it (no, I'm not affiliated with them in any way). The whole ixhash stuff looks a little abandoned, but the stats in [4] still look kind of okay, so I'll keep using it for now.
