Hi,
I'm posting of another fellow pilot, koala. He cannot also enter the site. The message below is from him: I've been unable to enter the site for a few days. This only happens from my home internet connection, I can view the site normally from other internet connections. I have observed the following: 1) My ISP's DNS servers hang up when trying to resolve the site name 2) If I switch to public DNS servers, I can resolve the name from my usual connection 3) Once I can resolve the name, I still cannot access the site 4) But if I access the site via it's IP address, I get a message, not the actual site (I suppose the site uses vhosting) If I send manually HTTP requests, the connection seems to lock whenever I supply a Host: header If you want to pursue this further, please contact me via email at koalillo-at-fastmail-fm. If you could set up a different name to point to the site, I believe we could "patch" temporarily the problem The host name need not be a real internet address. If you can setup your web server to vhost the site "youplayittemp", I believe I could access the site by putting that on my hosts file.
Kind regards, A fellow pilot
Hello Pejota and thanks so much for answering. I'm answering in English for others to understand as a matter of respect to the rest.
Do you know if koala uses Telefonica as ISP? My friend does and actually he has tried the cleaning of everything with no luck and noone of his three tries with Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera has been successful. Also do you know if there is someone here using Telefonica's ADSL that can access?
Nick, I have told him too about the vampiring option but with no luck. If it is the ISP, is there a chance that there is a need of some port to contact here that the ISP might have closed for any reason?
Best regards and thanks for your support. |
