    I have purchased a directory http://www.za7.org but it seems I cant access it from Here ( Germany ). I ve been told thats it works in asia and USA but it doesnt open me end. I ve tried accessing it thru a proxy...sometime it works...most times it doesnt though.

    Would really appreciate some help here if help is possible. My host tells me the site isnt available and that the server is probably down.

    Any theories?


    thnx:confused:

    Hi. :)
    You can have to wait up to 48 hours if you have changed nameservers. Normally it takes only a few hours.

    yeah...i know. I purchaes the directory on thursday last week and it went offline after I registered it. Somehow though, I could access it this morning for approx. 3 hours after which I couldnt access it again. Its quite frustrating to see that the rest of the world can access my own site and I cant.

    i would check your dns for the domain name as it is not resolving do you have access to the ds settings or you will need to ask who ever looks after that domain

    thanks

    I can get to your site very quickly.

    Oh, and I tried to submit, but got an error (nothing to do with your problem though)

    this is weird. If everyone but me ( in Germany ) can access the site there must still be something fishy going on

    Damn....what do I have to do to be able to access it.

    FzX5vo was kind enough to edite the name servers for me for which I am truely thankfull. My only problem is that I cant bring the site up on my screen

    This is so weird
