Dedicated Server problem?

Discussion in 'Site & Server Administration' started by digital29, Feb 19, 2010.

    I have a site hosted on a friend`s dedicated server (which costs around 200$ per month) and I have some issues. Actually, I don`t know if there is a problem with the server or a DNS problem, that`s why I posted..I need some ideas.
    I uploaded my site on the server a month ago...and there are people who can`t access the site, they get a "Server not found" error and in the same time it works for me and others. Can you give me some ideas, please? The site is www.conceptsnews.com (hope I am not breaking any rules by posting it)

    If you are able to get the people who cannot access the server to ping it, then you should be able to see if they are going to the correct server. Another thing to look at would be a firewall on the server may be blocking them. Check to ensure that the person's IP address is not blocked at the server level.

    I think that the you should contact the support for your dedicated server, if you are sure that you have setup dns correctly.

    It could be possible that this few people that cant access to your server are behind firewall (company restrictions) and becouse local restrictions cant access your server.

    ... That's an inconsistent error. I guess there might be some problem with either their browser/connection or with the settings on the server side. Since I'm interested into dedicated servers as well, keep us posted here. I like your site as well.
