hi there since yesterday evening GMT ( about 3 or 4pm Pacific time ? ) the DNS lookup for these sites does not work from where I am at (Ireland!). Perhaps this is to do with the recent maintenance. note: the same happened with www.Winhost.com and forum.Winhost.com but the DNS routing seems to have updated itself ok. could you please tell me the IP addresses for these sites ? cp.Winhost.com s02.Winhost.com many thanks! sean
answer - use online hostname lookup if anyone has same problem: you can use this site to get the IP address of a hostname: http://www.paulsadowski.com/lookup.asp
Even a more easier way is to simply ping it.
