Hey,

My bestest buddy Susie "borrowed" a server from college and we have spent all day trying to setup a website on it and we use this thing called DNS which redirects the domain to the servers IP. We have one setup and need someone to test it for us and see if you can see what the page says, if it doesnt display then we've done something wrong as usual hehe.

If you can see the page here can you tell us what it says pweese so we know it displays properly.

Sorry I turned the server off around the time you posted hehe, sorry. That may have been why but other than that I dont understand it, the server is running now and the image below is being displayed via a IMG link from the server so how come people cant access it i wonder?. If i now turned the server off then the image wouldnt display.

Spliker:

The host relaxo.selfip.com is not reachable on the internet. I did a tracert to it's IP (172.143.83.39) and the request timed out. You might try the same from another computer connected through your ISP. The command is:

Windows: tracert 172.143.83.39 or tracert relaxo.selfip.com
Unix: traceroute 172.143.83.39 or traceroute relaxo.selfip.com

Until you can reach the computer no one else can see your web site.

OK I think perhaps I found the problem, firewall/ant-virus settings were wrong. Could someone try the URL again http://relaxo.selfip.com/ and if you cant see the page can you tell me if you can see the yellow smiley picture on my post above?

Dont forget to tell me what the page says if you get to read it hehe xxxx

Ive been doing this on my own all day, Susie ran out on me.

"The connection has timed out

The server at relaxo.selfip.com is taking too long to respond."

I don't see a smiley face either.

And Bad Susie! for bailing out on ya

Yes shes a b*tch hehe. Maybe port forwarding will help on the router. Please try this: http://relaxo.selfip.com:1010/

If it doesnt work im giving up and going to bed hehe.

You should see a custom 500 internal error page.
