I have been trying to access BulkRegister to switch a dns over to a new nameserver. I have not been able to get in all day yesterday or today. Does anyone know what's up? I noticed on their agreement that they are affiliated with Alabanza. When I tried to access http://www.alabanza.com, it also does not come up.

Since Bulk Register is my registrar, I'm obviously concerned.

Both sites appear fine from here at Mon 01/01/01 1:44PM ET/USA.

Maybe somebody got into the punch too much last night.

Actually, there are two of us trying. We do have a DSL set up, so perhaps there is some problem with our ISP dns server. We'll try testing some alternate routes. Thanks!

You can always do a bit of cross-checking at http://www.tracert.com/cgi-bin/trace.pl et al.

It's not all that uncommon for even major ISP's to drop the ball with their DNS records, too.

A month or two back, @Home did this -- you couldn't get to any site, anywhere, unless you typed in the url twice.

Naturally, they insisted for days that the problem didn't exist... lol.

Yes, that's what we did and we got an IP address. It works. Thanks!
