Is that "gator1434.hostgator.com" correct?
I forgot the command to show the routing through the dns servers.

Very helpful w00die. Thank you.

Got back in touch with my provider and luckily they could replicate the issue (I couldn't from my end). They think they've spotted and issue and fixed it. Please let me know if it's fixed for you.

Thanks for you help and patience.

Ian.

Working fine at the moment. I'll let you know if it happens again.

[Ian]

Thank you sir. The change has not yet replicated through all the DNS servers globally but finger's crossed the problem will not return

The site wasn't working last night from my home pc but seems ok just now from my work pc.

[Ian]

Sigh. Time to get back in touch with them once again

Thanks for reporting it.

Ian.

Back home again and God is calling me again! Very worrying as I'm not in the slightest religious. Maybe it's a sign! Linux is hell for me at the moment lol.

[Ian]

I agree, maybe it's a sign!

Have you tried running an

Code: Select all

ipconfig /flushdns

in a Command Prompt? Or tried hitting Ctrl-F5 in your browser?

[parsy]

I'll try that when I get home.

I'm at work and it's ok and it's also ok on my iphone using 3G.
