Are you possibly locked out at that hosting provider? Ask that they "escalate your ticket" to the highest level you can to rule out system firewall lockouts? How are you accessing these sites? Port 22? VNC? http/https through auth processes? > I know the sites are working because if I plug straight into the modem, I > can > access them.

So, you possibly can't get a new cox IP address but you can request they verify you did not get into one of their traps? Let's look further: 1) Can you traceroute from the command line to the server? If not where does it fail? 2) If you limit icmp, can you netcat trace to that port? http://www.jfranken.de/homepages/johannes/vortraege/netcat.en.html http://www.textfiles.com/hacking/INTERNET/netcat.txt 3) Or nmap the server? # nmap -P0 servername > I've talked with my hosting company and they swear up and down that nothing > has changed and the sites are working as normal. Do you have cookies in place - clear your browser cookies? Try another browser? Netcat, traceroute and nmap will bypass the browser, but just in case... Also did you change your dns server settings in your /etc/resolv.conf? Check to make sure your nslookup is the same. Did you possibly setup a hosts file hack to work on a mock up of the website and forget it on your own box?
