Are they down? If not, nothing is up with them.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

exodus was one of the original battle.net servers used when they were hosted with AT&T, I thought it was disabled but maybe not.

Each of the servers were given a unique dns named after StarCraft characters long ago...  You just found out about this now?  lol.

No, I found out years ago, I just now brought it up.

EDIT -
Wait, Exodus was a StarCraft character?

Those are oldschool server names from the Days Longe Past.  They used to use those many moons ago, before they got into the geographic distinctions.  I believe they kept them around for backwards-compatibility.

I remember on Diablo 1 the servers being |Modem LAN 1| Modem LAN 2|Modem LAN 3, and you had an account number underneath your charectars name, anyone remember that?

I remember account numbers, but they were trashed.  A good idea, but it didn't work out :)

I thought that they were still hosted by AT&T? Every time I connect it says "Welcome to Battle.net! This server is hosted by AT&T. We have blahblah number of people playing blahblah number of games at this time."

They are. However B.net needs to update that message considering Cingular (sp?) now owns AT&T.

I believe that Cingular only owns AT&T Wireless.
