David, I think you have a problem with the DNS on moqui.org domain. I have had to add the www prefix to make it work. See the ping command trace below:
jsoto@jf-01:~$ ping moqui.org PING moqui.org (216.21.239.197) 56(84) bytes of data. ^C --- moqui.org ping statistics --- 15 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 14035ms jsoto@jf-01:~$ ping www.moqui.org PING e2982.c.akamaiedge.net (95.100.124.59) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 95.100.124.59: icmp_seq=1 ttl=57 time=43.8 ms 64 bytes from 95.100.124.59: icmp_seq=2 ttl=57 time=44.0 ms 64 bytes from 95.100.124.59: icmp_seq=3 ttl=57 time=43.8 ms 64 bytes from 95.100.124.59: icmp_seq=4 ttl=57 time=44.1 ms ^C --- e2982.c.akamaiedge.net ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 5712ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 43.814/43.972/44.151/0.291 ms BTW, it's good to see Moqui on road.
