Http protocol
Why would the www in front of my client's domainname suddenly not work.
example:
http :// www . not a real domain name.com
did work
now only works if typed in as
http :// not a real domain name.com
I am sure it is a simple fix so Thank you for any help!____________________
Thanks,

WWW FAIL WWW Category ERROR: I couldn't find any A records for www.freedomewireless.com. If you want a website at www.freedomewireless.com, you will need an A record for www.freedomewireless.com. If you do not want a website at www.freedomewireless.com, you can ignore this error.

you need to add 'A' record for www to point to the same IP of freedomewireless.com or CNAME to freedomewireless.com
from DNS management under WHM just edit the domain freedomewireless.com and add it there.
might need a refresh to sync with other nameservers.Bashar Al-Abdulhadi - KuwaitNET Internet Services Serving customers since 1997

the funny thing is that there is another account on the ip with the same exact dns info(except for the domain name of course) and it pulls up with www.

what is the domain let me check, could be just cached unresolved entry at your ISPs nameservers and just need little time to refresh globally.

thanks for all your help.
All the settings were correct in my whm.
That was my biggest confusion, and main reason for seaking help
and the reason i found my way to this AWSOME bb.
And my host fixed whatever the problem was.
I have asked them to please explain to me how it was fixed, so I will let you know what comes of it.

hey bashar,
I am sorry it took so long to respond to your last message. I rarely ever see my old boss. But i did find out that in the early and up to the mid 80's he was over the computers in all the banks in Kuwait. His name was Gerald. A very tall stout man. His wife is name Nancy.She too was over the computer systems there.____________________
