Well, Tom, I am not very knowledgable at all on this subject, therefore, I would do better by describing to you what I could find out after I read your last comment. In general, it seems to me that some IPs or IP ranges are being blocked from reaching your source.schooltool.org site, perhaps at your ISP level or somewhere else in the way. Here are some facts: 1. We cannot access source.schooltool.org from our school. 2. I cannot access source.schooltool.org from home (different ISP). 3. A ping from both places shows what appears to be the correct dns translation (195.182.77.65). 4. I asked my son to try it through a browser from his office in Miami, and he got through to source.schooltool.org without a problem. 5. I asked two other contacts in Panama City, Panama, to try it, and one worked (different ISP). The other did not (same ISP). 6. During all morning of Tuesday 9th, I could not get proper DNS resolution for source.schooltool.org through www.dnsstuff.com. The message received was something like "The site's DNS Server might be down". 7. After 4 p.m. it started working well (the dns lookup from dnsstuff). It translates to 195.182.77.65 (fridge.pov.lt). 8. I tried http://195.182.77.65 from the school and from home, only to get the same "page not available" answer, which makes me think either our ISP (Cable & Wireless) has a traffic problem or its provider has traffic problems or is blocked out. In conclusion, fortunately, it does not seem to be a server down problem, but, unfortunately, now I don't know how to get to source.schooltool.org inasmuch as we only have one ISP at the school. Suggestions are very welcome. Frank _______________________________________________ Schooltool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schooltool.org/mailman/listinfo/schooltool
