Thanks Graham.After I sent the email yesterday when I attempted again to visit the www.dimsuum.dk <http://www.dimsuum.dk/> from the browser I could access the site all right. Also when I try to reach the site using curl -L -H Host:www.dimsum.dk <http://www.dimsum.uk/> http://139.162.163.35 <http://139.162.163.35/> I can reach the site from the terminal as well.
