Hmm, there's that spelling error again :-)

Do you use different ISPs? If the DNS config (/etc/resolv.conf
especially) changes after wwwoffle was started, wwwoffle doesn't "see"
that change and will continue to use the old one.

I recommend something like pdnsd on your local system, which works as a
DNS proxy; /etc/resolv.conf then points to localhost (127.0.0.1) and
never changes. See http://home.t-online.de/home/Moestl/
