Upon my creation with the forums, I noticed that I got a little info box almost at the top, telling me my credit value towards obtaining the free default package hosting.

Upon reading this I noticed that the last paragraph with "computer hosting" the link to there site is not working. Clicked it a few times just to make sure it wasn't my connection. Unfortunately it isn't.

I just thought I could help out with that, as its not exactly working, and I am some what interested in it. ^.^

Thank you and take care. smile.gif

Well, the link from here is fine and all. As you have said it's the destination site which appears to be at fault...

Nameserver trace for www.computing-web-hosting.com:

* Looking for who is responsible for root zone and followed c.root-servers.net.
* Looking for who is responsible for com and followed d.gtld-servers.net.
* Looking for who is responsible for computing-web-hosting.com and followed ns2.computing-web-hosting.com.

* ns1.computing-web-hosting.com returned (SERVFAIL)
* ns2.computing-web-hosting.com returned (SERVFAIL)

Hi,

You can try the following procedure to see if the target host is down or it is available on the web:

1- If you use Windows XP Professional or Windows NT 4.0 go to Start > Run and then type cmd to open the command prompt.

2- Type
CODE
ping [servername]
. Type the command without braces.

3- Firstly if you saw this:
CODE
Ping request could not find host www.computing-web-hosting.com. Please check the
name and try again.
then try the same command for some known on-line server like for www.google.com, if you saw a different message containing information about the host then the first server is down:

Example for a running website using the ping command:

CODE
C:\Documents and Settings\CyrusX>ping www.google.com

Pinging www.l.google.com [209.85.135.104] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 209.85.135.104: bytes=32 time=226ms TTL=238
Reply from 209.85.135.104: bytes=32 time=224ms TTL=238
Reply from 209.85.135.104: bytes=32 time=224ms TTL=238
Reply from 209.85.135.104: bytes=32 time=219ms TTL=238

Ping statistics for 209.85.135.104:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 219ms, Maximum = 226ms, Average = 223ms


So there should be nothing wrong with your connection. Secondly, nobody will blame you for a broken link!

You can also try
CODE
nslookup [servername]
command to see if the server is up and running.

Hes happy with T17, hes saying that the text by the credit read out saying

the link to computing host is wrong, it links to http://www.computing-web-hosting.com/ instead of computinghost.com

If you let opaque know he can correct it. otherwise CH wont get so many clicks! Good find HellaTruvios, and welcome to the forums smile.gif
