Thanks for reminding me about hosts file … Been trying for hours to login ,but IE wud not connect … Then found cud get in with iPad , saw this post , # blocked the refs to Wbb , and now no probs … .? Wud it be worth put a ref on the Blog to the remove the lines from hosts ?
Tnx 4 all the sweat and tears to make the site changes.
Yes, as soon as I removed the line from the hosts file I was able to load the site. Will we ever need to add it back again or is this how it will work from now on without it?
The entry in the hosts file will direct you to the old server..Remove the entry and it’s all well..
No need for the hosts file entry as there is no DNS problems with the new server..
The forum being slow have no relation to the hosts file..
the hosts file is useful to those members that live in a country such as india, and others that attempt to block certain sites by DNS blocking. I’ve read many posts about members from certain countries having that problem, which the hosts file fixed..
Yes, all seems to be good with DNS servers..
Should there be any blocking problems, you can use this in the Hosts file.
