404 is Page Not Found being returned from the *SERVER*, so it appears to me that the DNS entry is not at fault. htdig is getting TO the server, but it is getting back a not-so-good answer. >From the *same machine* that htdig runs on, try this: 1. Enter command: telnet www.domain.com 80 2. After the line "Escape character is ^]" type in: GET / See what the output from the server is. A better solution (in my opinion) is to use a command-line URL fetcher like "wget" or "curl": wget -Sv http://www.domain.com/ Hope this helps, greg_fenton. ===== Greg Fenton [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
