A favour please folks
 

I've been unable to reach groklaw.net OR ibiblio.org for my daily dose of laughs about SCO's court case against IBM and the world.

This is very odd, they've occasionally been down for a few hours, but two days is very unlikely - these are big & busy sites. I'm inclined to think it's a DNS lookup problem with the root servers 'cos I can't reach 'em on my Limux machines either.

Would some of you be so kind as to try and access these sites and let me know where you can reach them or not from other locations?

Many thanks,

Mac :ok:

Fine for me in Europe Mac

Latest major groklaw topic regards Novell and is dated yesterday morning.

I can reach it, try 152.2.210.81

http://groklaw.net/ is working fine here .....

http://www.ibiblio.org/ and this one too .....

Thanks guys at least I know the site is up.

Seems I'm not the only one having problems, see http://cialug.org/pipermail/cialug/2...er/004300.html et seq.

Strange indeed - I suspected it was down to the DNS servers, but can't even access it on 152.2.210.81 (I'd tried that, thanks anyway)

Something odd happeing with the entire University of Noth Carolina netblock I think.

Netcraft says Groklaw is up so gotta presume it's one of those wierd net happenings that occur from time to time.

Eeeek, I've realised I'm a Groklaw addict!:{ :{ :{

Back this morning. Ahhhhh.......:p

Thanks for checking all!

Gotta presume it was some misconfigured DNS server.

:ok:

Sorry Mac - saw your request and tried last night and again a few mins ago to confirm. Everything working OK at this end.
