I'm developing a PHP/MySQL site for a client. He already has a web-host for another domain and would like to re-direct the new domain to a sub-directory within the allotted space of the previous domain. To perform that re-direct, I just started using EVERYDNS.NET.
The Problem: when I attempt to PING the new domain, the PING times-out. In fact, when I directly PING the re-direction server, that also times out. The tech support of the re-direction services states that his system has no problem (what a surprise) and that the problem is on my side (what a surprise !!). I don't care where the problem is, I'm just trying to fix this thing. I've confirmed that the name servers with the domain registrar are correct and point to the re-direction servers. (from WHOIS) Domain servers in listed order: NS1.EVERYDNS.NET 209.75.39.141 NS2.EVERYDNS.NET 209.75.39.142 Here's where I need your help. Would a few of you PING the following and send a message to me with your results. (off-line, so as not to burn-up this list's band-width). If you succeed or fail, it will be an independent test from my system. preferred-pet.com webhop.everydns.net (this is the re-direct server) 209.75.39.144 (this is the re-direct server IP address, to bypass DNS) thanks rick p.s. Yes, I know this is only peripherally related to PHP and databases.
