I'm having a problem with website access.
| Posted by lulzworthy, 03-07-2008, 03:00 PM |
| I just moved to a new website host yesterday morning. The setup was quick and I had the site up by last night. I was talking to some users on another board, and approximately half said they couldn't reach the site. This was using the site's URL and the site's IP address also, so I don't think propagation is the issue. I can access the site fine and a few other people can also. It is very puzzling. What could it possibly be?

| DNS can take up to 48 hours to fully propogate. If it hasnt been resolved in 48 hours, I would suggest running a dns report at www.dnsstuff.com
Best Regards

| Thanks. But shouldn't they still be able to view the site by typing in the dedicated IP address for it? That is what is so worrisome

| Ok
Is the IP assigned to YOUR account?
Do you have private name servers?
Answer the questions , I will try help.

| Yes, I have a dedicated IP assigned specifically to my account. I do not have private name servers. I can provide the IP address and/or URL of site if it isn't against board rules. Thanks for the help.

| Unfortunately, I am new and don't have permission to use PM yet.
I am going to post the IP address anyway. I really need help with this and the webhost seemed as confused as I am. I hope the mods don't mind.

The site's name is whofailednow.com. Again, thank you for the help.
