I have the same trouble of connecting as most other people have. I tried the host file fix, and everything worked... once. Now Im back to the "Cannot find server or DNS Error" as usual. Does anybody know how to get connected regularly ??? Uwe how about a mirror of the GPLRank on a fast NT based server ?? I know the Linux/Windows battle is a religious struggle for those involved, but I just want to be able to access the Rank on a more regular basis. How about RAS sponsoring a www.gplrank.com domaine for Uwe to play with ?? And no, I have no idea how that could be done, I know I can't email Uwe 5$....... Mikkel + 33.xx as far as i remember :)

All you have to do to get there on a regular basis is described here http://ringlord.com/dns.html Works like a charm :-) Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy http://www.theuspits.com http://www.teammirage.com "Mountain climbing, auto racing and bullfighting are the only true sports...all others are games." --Ernest Hemingway--

>> Uwe how about a mirror of the GPLRank on a fast NT based server ?? >> I know the Linux/Windows battle is a religious struggle for those involved, >> but I just want to be able to access the Rank on a more regular basis. implementing your idea will have the opposite effect ;-) . The server has been fine and accessible for weeks, it's the DNS records for ringlord.com that are hosed some of which sadly are not yet under our direct control (digex.net and blackboard disagree about the ip address). Meanwhile, use the "host fix" in order to access gplrank reliably. Thanks for your patience.
