Sorry Owen! I don't get why you are still going to thew old site. I'll contact the old owner and have him delete the previous website. Maybe if the DNS doesn't have an option, it will send you directly to ww2talk.

Otto, I can see why people like you can earn lots of money knowing about the internet and computers in general unlike plebs like me who have to be told what to do and then still can't get a result.

As I have been to the new version and posted on it today surely I must can't be the ISP anymore?
My caches are cleaned many times over, I just don't get it?
Biazzare, eh?

Otto · #53 (**permalink**) September 4th, 2007, 10:24 PM

It's not your fault Owen. When you access the internet, your computer sends out a general request for information to another server somewhere out in the wild, (in this case ww2talk). Your request will take "hops" through several computers along the way, for example it takes me exactly 10 "hops" to get from my parent's home in Toronto to the ww2f.com server. Every DNS computer along the way must know where to send the data you gave them. When a server is changed, all the computers should me updated, and they usually are updated with the new DNS info. In this situation it seems that at least one of the DNS computers along the way has the old information, and your request is being sent to the old website. Most likely, the problem is with one of the early DNS servers your request will hit, such as your own ISP.

This is of course very simplified, but you get the idea. The fact that you got through for a short time is actually a good, it means that things are getting corrected, as slow as it might be happening.

Just have a little patience, and know that once the issue is corrected, you won't have to worry about it ever again.

Can someone send me a link to one of my posts from yesterday.
From my Lorne Marr ASH Can thread or my What to see at Bruneval thread.

If I was able to post there yesterday surely I should be able to get there via same post or not???

I've been there by Proxy today and posted but that is not ideal.

This is really bugging me.

Owen, I don't know about you, but if it were me I'd be getting a little paranoid. I know I would!

Wessex Wyvern · #57 (**permalink**) September 5th, 2007, 10:15 AM
