Perhaps you're having a DNS problem i.e. your DNS server is giving out the wrong answer to queries about your InterMapper server. This could be because the IP address of your iMac has changed for some reason (DHCP?), or because someone's been monkeying with the DNS server.
Try accessing it by its current IP address instead of by name.
