Question Where are you moving to ?

[Moriath]

Something to do with the issues a while ago about ip addresses and such ?

 

[Edmond]

I cant access FH on the work lappy running Vista and IE 9, I get a http 500 error

Could this help?

 

[Bigmac]

Might be because you are running Vista AND IE.

Weird, the old server has the holding page up returning a 503 error in the headers. Can you try again today, also, open a command prompt and type in ping forums.freddyshouse.com and tell me the IP address it returns please.

Ok, no worries, let me know when you can.

I don't get any IP address come back. The request just times out.

Just checked it in IE on windows 7. Works fine here, although did get a couple of timeouts at first, which is a bit odd.

That is correct, ICMP is blocked by the firewall. It still resolves and presents an IP address

nslookup forums.freddyshouse.com is your friend, I get:

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: forums.freddyshouse.com
Address: 178.251.235.187

That's correct, does it now work on the work laptop?

don't know, i'm home now

So you have been at work all week and not once used the lappy that gave a 500 error ? In that case I will mark this as fixed

 

[Edmond]

No I have not been in the office most of the week, I pinged it yesterday and got that ip address which I posted from my phone, I have not tried it today as I have not had time

@Deebs - I'm a bit sad that Netscape isn't a fully supported browser

That was my favourite browser many moons ago. I was sad to see it die.
