NY_Skinsfan Needs Help Accessing the Site
NY_Skinsfan (Bob) has requested that I post this message here. He needs help logging on to TheWarpath.net. He hasn't been able for the past few weeks from home. I'm pasting his request below:
"I am unable to get to thewarpath.net. This is the only site I can not get to. My internet connection is fine, I don't have any firewall issues (that I can see). I am unable to ping the site and I tried to run a tracert and came up short there too. I talked to a timewarner guy and he led me to a site called dnsreport.com. When you enter thewarpath.net into the site it gives a long status report list and the site looks fine. One thing the timewarner guy pointed out was the one warning message: Single Point of Failure WARNING: Although you have at least 2 NS records, there is a chance that they may both point to the same server (one of our two tests shows them being different, the other is unsure; it appears that there are one or more firewall(s) that intercept and alter DNS packets (some versions of Linux reportedly have a built-in firewall that does this, too)), which would result in a single point of failure. You are required to have at least 2 nameservers per RFC 1035 section 2.2. The timewarner guy thought this might have something to do with it so we left it at that until I talked with Matty. Matty checked with his server people and they said that everything was fine on their end and that this is an isolated incident. I use Mozilla v.2.0 but it won't work in Internet Explorer either. This just happened about two to three weeks ago. I have intalled anything or made any changed to my computer at all. It's like, when I type in thewarpath.net into the address bar it says it's looking but can't find the site at all. If anyone can help me please email me. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks, NY_Skinsfan amybob@nycap.rr.com"
