The other site
« on: December 07, 2007, 01:50:39 AM »
invelos.com ... I got a NetworkSolutions page with this message:

"Coming Soon!
This site is under construction"

Hmmm...  :shrug:  :hmmmm:

Is it just me?

Is that down to the missiles someone was talking about (in my dim recall)?  :weirdo:  :devil:

Their server or the datacenter where it's hosted is probably down so you're automagically redirected to a temporary page instead of getting a "not found" page.

Actually, it's a change in DNS server. It will just take some time for the change to propagate through the internet. Usually 24-48 hours.

Quoting Ken Cole:

We've initiated a DNS transfer which may cause a temporary failure to resolve invelos.com correctly.  To temporarily correct the issue,  edit your hosts file to point to the correct IP.  Add the following lines to your host file:

74.53.166.114 invelos.com
74.53.166.114 www.invelos.com
74.53.166.114 static.invelos.com

Your "hosts" file is usually at c:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc

The domain resolution switch is occurring now, so it should resolve correctly soon.  Until then, these changes will bridge the problem.

I tried it and it worked for me.  :fingerchew:
