freetype plugin

2000-12-02 Thread Uwe Koloska

Hello,

since the new beta of freetype plugin was announced on
http://www.xach.com/gimp/news/index.html
I tried to reach its homepage at
http://freetype.gimp.org
but never got any response from the server with an error:
Cannot open the HTTP connection to freetype.gimp.org port 80;
  [No route to host].

Anyone with the same problem or a better address?
Uwe

Same problem here. I ran a couple of traceroutes and everything is fine
right up to gig8-1.snr1.CS.Berkeley.EDU (169.229.3.66), after which I
get a No route to host too. Tracing gimp.org also got me to
gig8-1.snr1.CS.Berkeley.EDU, but that one does work, the box behind it
is graft.XCF.Berkeley.EDU (128.32.45.176). Apparently someone at
Berkeley messed up the router config and/or the freetype.gimp.org
webserver and/or the DNS entries.

(that last one sounds plausible, freetype.gimp.org is 128.32.43.176
while gimp.org is 128.32.45.176. I don't see why there would be two
different boxes, it could be a typo).

At any rate, it's not your connection that's at fault here.
