DNS entry gone for www.exxoshost.co.uk?

Post by czietz »

It appears that DNS for www.exxoshost.co.uk is broken. Thus, the forum can only be reached via exxoshost.co.uk (without the "www"). Perhaps someone should have a look:

Code: Select all

$ host exxoshost.co.uk
exxoshost.co.uk has address 81.4.101.12
exxoshost.co.uk mail is handled by 30 mx.exxoshost.co.uk.
exxoshost.co.uk mail is handled by 40 exxoshost.co.uk.
$ host www.exxoshost.co.uk
Host www.exxoshost.co.uk not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
This is not a local problem, same thing happens when querying the authoritative name server:

Code: Select all

$ host -t NS exxoshost.co.uk
exxoshost.co.uk name server ns2.123-reg.co.uk.
exxoshost.co.uk name server ns.123-reg.co.uk.
$ host exxoshost.co.uk ns.123-reg.co.uk
Using domain server:
Name: ns.123-reg.co.uk
Address: 212.67.202.2#53
Aliases:

exxoshost.co.uk has address 81.4.101.12
exxoshost.co.uk mail is handled by 30 mx.exxoshost.co.uk.
exxoshost.co.uk mail is handled by 40 exxoshost.co.uk.
$ host www.exxoshost.co.uk ns.123-reg.co.uk

Name: ns.123-reg.co.uk

Yeah, the change rippled out about 11pm GMT last night.

The biggest problem is that the board redirects internally to the www address.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.
