 | View Full Version : nameserver question Barbara 05-18-2002, 01:21 PM If a site can be reached by it's IP address, but not it's domain name, does that indicate a nameserver problem? I've checked the domain to make sure that I hadn't accidentally let it expire and have checked the DNS info to make sure that it's correct. avara 05-18-2002, 01:58 PM Originally posted by Enigmatics If a site can be reached by it's IP address, but not it's domain name, does that indicate a nameserver problem?

If you PM your domain, or share it here, I will look into this for you. :) <<MOD NOTE: Oops!

If so, then it could be your ISP, and not your DNS zone file or nameservers, etc. 4 bones to try: http://nitrous.digex.net/ Barbara 05-18-2002, 02:47 PM Domain: bjlonline.com IP address: 128.241.203.119 The domain did not resolve from my home computer last night.
