90103 2002-10-17 05:48:00 I'm having trouble getting to a website. RadiativeNZ (http://www.radiativenz.com). I used to be able to get to it. But now it's as if its in the hosts file. But I've looked and looked and it's not in there.

I've asked other people and they can access. It's not IE related as I can't get their in any browsers and can't nslookup, ping or tracert either.

Any other ideas as to where it may be.

90104 2002-10-17 06:43:00 JM I can't get to it either - quite strange, but it doesn't even bother looking for it, it just comes up with "Page cannot be displayed" almost as soon as I click on the link.

Must be something to do with the HOSTS is all I can think of.

Mike.

90105 2002-10-17 07:06:00 i get cannot locate remote server.... loser (538)
90106 2002-10-17 07:49:00 No luck with me either. Even with my Hosts file disabled I still get the Page cannot be displayed error. It tries for a fraction of a second but just won't do it. Susan B (19)
90107 2002-10-17 07:54:00 Certainly looks like a DNS problem. You can try and force your way in here (webhost0.inspire.net.nz) :D wuppo (41)
90108 2002-10-17 08:04:00 Now how did you know how to do that wuppo? That worked a treat! :D Susan B (19)
90109 2002-10-17 08:12:00 Come on Susan - if the front door is locked: try the back! ;\

No seriously, I tried an NSlookup on my default DNS and got no reply. Looked up the DNS sever for radiative and returned the IP from an NSlookup on that. Tried the IP which returned a default hosting page (so shared IP hosting). Took a punt at the account name and presto!

90110 2002-10-17 08:25:00 I'd got someone to give me the IP and had tried /radiativenz.

THanks wuppo :)
