Do you know what DNS stands for? It's Domain Name Server. In other words, it is a server at your ISP that translates nemonic web addresses into IP addresses. For example, you type http://www.dnsexample.com into your address bar and the DNS translates that into something like 192.34.76.2. So if you are getting DNS errors the DNS at your ISP is defective or not getting updates correctly from the network. No. I run my own DNS nameserver, and it does not query the ISP's server (the ISP's server is unreliable). If it cannot find a domain it will go all the way back to the root servers, like most nameservers. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

Again I make my same point...it only seems YOU can't see it for whatever
reason. I doubt cowardice on the Air Force's part has anything to do with it. Mxsmanic wrote: Scott writes: What is YOUR reasoning that the USAF is made up of cowards? They're afraid to let people see their Web sites. |

Who's computer is it then? Maybe they need to have it checked.

Good one. How many French are in any sort of armed conflict (right or
wrong) around the world? I wouldn't consider anyone in the military as being a coward, U.S. or otherwise. Watch the news sometime...or don't they offer those channels in France?

So where do you get updates on domain names from? Without that, your
packets should go to some default server somewhere. Maybe the problem lies with THAT server, wherever it is. Do you have a router running on your system with any sort of firewall? Like I said before, take a trip to your local library or internet cafe and check to see if you can get to the site from there. So far, it doesn't sound like you've done any outside troubleshooting. All you say is "It ain't my stuff that's bad." So until you do, most here won't take your complaint too seriously (myself included)... Mxsmanic wrote: Scott writes: Do you know what DNS stands for?

Good one. I don't consider a loss of civil liberties due to cowardice to be good. How many French are in any sort of armed conflict (right or wrong) around the world? I don't know. How is that relevant? I wouldn't consider anyone in the military as being a coward, U.S. or otherwise.

I'm not sure you're getting what I'm saying...maybe losing it in the
translation somewhere. I can get Army, Marines, Navy AND Air Force sites. None are blocked here. Others in countries outside of the U.S. can get the Air Force site. Why are you the only one that has chimed in and said it can't be seen? Mxsmanic wrote: Scott writes: Again I make my same point...it only seems YOU can't see it for whatever reason.
