Can you get here by using the IP address?

Using just the IP address to http://174.132.193.125 won't work - the web server doesn't know what you want.
If DNS is the problem you can add a line to the etc/hosts file (location depends on your system) like
Code: [Select]
174.132.193.125   www.amiga.org
You'd need to adjust the IP address in case a.org moves elsewhere but otherwise it'll do the trick.


He should be getting a Host Gator page otherwise the IP is blocked.
