[wellylug] Just discovered server is not serving up pages

[Mark Foster]

What website, Don?

Noone's actually yet said what the URL of the website that doesn't work
should be?

I assume it's not modecideas.com as the DNS for that is quite different:

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;modecideas.com.                        IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
modecideas.com.         3600    IN      A       38.113.1.111

Mark.

Yip, I can see the web site now.  Not sure what the issue is?
