You mean this is a local issue? I still don't see why the service should be disrupted. The new DNS was started by the new provider and I didn't tell the old to stop. Both point to the same server.
Anyway, it's working for me now (in Sweden), both fenicsproject.org and fenicsproject.com (which is one of a range of new addresses that I have registered just in case). Can people from various locations report whether things are working? Something that's still not working is fenicsproject.org (without the www) but I think that's something we (i.e. Harish) need to configure locally. -- Anders On Wed, Nov 09, 2011 at 07:57:43AM -0600, Andy Ray Terrel wrote: > So usually when changing your DNS records you need to lower the time > out to something small like 2 hours.
