Ah yes. One of my personal web sites was refusing to resolve (change to a different server, and it still worked...) and I found out (since the hosting was through a friend) that my friend had managed to let one of his domains expire, and somebody else bought it up. That's fine, he wasn't really using it for much. Except that was the domain that I had my pointers set to, and by changing servers, I was just moving to those who kept the address around longer till nobody did. Not a happy camper. But it's a friend. So I have to worry about pissing him off. Too much that is... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] List archive http://marc.info/?l=jaxlug-list&r=1&w=2 RSS http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.xml
