Strange 2000 Server Problem -- Answer Gets A Date! :)
Hello People, I am setting up a web hosting company using Windows 2000 Server. Right now I'm using 2 PCs: Primary Domain Name Server NS1. NOYEARLYFEES. COM 202. 188. 111. 74 NOYEAR-HST Secondary Domain Name Server NS2.
Hello People,
I am setting up a web hosting company using Windows 2000 Server. Right now I'm using 2 PCs:
Primary Domain Name Server
NS1.NOYEARLYFEES.COM 202.188.111.74
NOYEAR-HST
Secondary Domain Name Server
NS2.NOYEARLYFEES.COM 202.188.111.75
NOYEAR2-HST
The primary DNS server is also the web server.
This is my problem:
I cannot for the life of me get www.noyearlyfees.com to work correctly! As in, if I type it into any other computer here at the office, I get a "HTTP 404 - File not found" error.
If I type it into NS1 or NS2, it works.
And here's the weird part, if I type the IP:
http://202.188.111.74/
It works on ANY computer.
Everything seems correct -- all the zone information, host headers, etc etc etc...
I've spent hours trying to figure this out. I've gone through all the docs, and my Mastering Windows 2000 Server book by Mark Minasi...
I know I'm not insane. I'm currently hosting 4 other sites with no problems at all, but I cannot get the actual domain working! The other 4 sites being:
http://www.mintye.com/ http://www.mintye.com.my/ http://www.voteforthebest.com/ http://www.tradeshowbusiness.com/
Any help you could give me on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Denise

Hi!
Just a test.
When I type the URL in my browser, I go to a blank page with a message saying:
"No web site is configured at this address"
When I type in the IP address, I go straight to your site.
Where are you located? In the US or in Malaysia??

I'm in Malaysia.
It looks as though you have several dns servers competing for that domain name. I tried pinging it once and got 203.106.104.13. I pinged it again and got 202.188.111.74. Then i got 203.106.104.2, 203.106.104.3, 203.106.104.4, etc. The point is, every time i ping it, i'm getting a different ip, and only once did i get the ip that it should be. Does 203.106.104.xxx sound familiar?
Sorry if this doesn't help much, but it is at least something to look into.

I too can get to your website with the ip you provided but when I trace your server with www.noyearlyfees.com I get 203.106.104.11 as you ip address. If I trace the two IP addresses you provided my tracer does not resolve your domain name. Check your settings again. The backbone server your connected too might not beable to resolve you at this time.
