Two Domain/hosting Problems

[Mark]

I'd be very grateful if anyone could help with these problems-any ideas would be helpful.

1) I can't access www.dualscene.co.uk without typing the www in-I have no idea why.

2) When I upload stuff to GPM's host, I can't see anything new. I have tried to upload different files, and delete ones that are already there but its as if my host is stuck in the past.

Any ideas?

1 - There is no DNS A record for "dualscene.co.uk"

2 - Who is GPM? sorry don't know what you mean here... but if say you're uploading the files via ftp and they appear there but not on the web it could be a caching / proxy issue... try doing a shift reload or restarting your browser / disabling a proxy. Of course this is only a guess... need more details...

I've sorted the second one out thanks. It was a host server change that affected a few members. It's sorted, now.

The first one is still baffling me though. What exactly do you mean?

http://dualscene.co.uk doesn't exist.

I'm really confused now. Am I simple?

Have you ever accessed www.dualscene.co.uk without typing the www. ?
Or have you accessed it via a bookmark ?.

I've just changed the DNS stuff, so it won't work for a couple of days. I use Mozilla and IE.

Basically, you usually register www.dualscene.co.uk. You might also register e.g. forums.dualscene.co.uk. Well there's also just "dualscene.co.uk" which is called up if you type some random subdomain that isn't registered. It's like the catch-all. You need to register that subdomain.

Oh right, thanks very much. I'll sort that out when I get back from work.
