Why not use Google DNS? Seems to be more standards compliant :)

pcforums.co.nz will be working no whether your DNS is working correctly or not as I have setup a redirect from the old server.
Note that this will stop working on Monday, but hopefully everyone's...

Yep that's what happens when you go directly to a shared IP.
The IP has a number of websites hosted on it, and the server requires the hostname (pcforums.co.nz) to display the correct site.
Without...

Yep that's what it should be saying :)

Of course it does, it's a shared IP. You have to use the hostname so the server knows which site to show you.

The following public DNS servers all agree that the IP is what it should be (And is...

23.92.88.67 is the correct address and has been set since about 11:30pm last night.

198.50.154.31 is the old one. I have setup a NAT rule to forward port 80 to stop people whinging, but that...

The issue is broken DNS servers that don't respect the TTLs, as I think was stated above.

Try this service: http://www.kloth.net/services/nslookup.php

I read that with the c and the st around the wrong way :waughh:

Adv editor is stuffed, can't upload files....
Most of the smileys are missing.

Looks like it's really happening! http://www.nbr.co.nz/article/fairfax-talks-staff-possible-closure-computer-titles-140920 (the article was updated today)

First time I've had an outage with this provider in 5 years. That's 99.9999999999999999999999999999999% (I exaggerate but you get the idea)

aaaand it's back.
There was a bit of a billing stuff up on the providers end which has now been rectified.

I have received personal contact details for the CEO and have these available should...

Their service makes it worth it.
What service are you after? ADSL2+ 50GB for $70 (or 300GB for $95)

:+1:

The server pcforums lives on is currently offline. It will be back sometime today.

They're on a snap connection.

You can refresh your "cap" by clicking connect again. I didn't encounter a limit on the number of times you could do that, in the 3 hours I was there last month...
