RE: Another little favour please ..(was RE: Site checks please ????)

Thanks Jeff.  =20

The problem was we had the DNS settings wrong.  Some people could see =
the
sites, others got "page not found" or "Server not found" errors.  =
Tonight we
checked the dns servers and found they were incorrectly set up.  We =
fixed
that and it looks like we've solved the problem.

There is a wonderful resource I had no idea was there until yesterday.  =
Have
a look at =
http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=3Dleverage.com.au
and see what it tells you.  There are no FAIL reports on that now, but =
there
were a couple of critical "FAIL"s in there.   Also put in msnbc.com and
Microsoft.com and some of your own sites.  If you're at all typical =
you're
in for a shock to find out how your sites are not as well set up as you
thought.=20

Anyway, thanks everyone for helping me out with this.

I can see them all. I'm curious; what was the problem?

Have a great day!
