britmaveric Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 (edited) I was wondering that myself. Perhaps Howard could shed some light on this? Doesn't exist if you look-up the domain via nslookup, not a good sign. Edited February 15, 2007 by britmaveric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chang_paarp Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 This will stop the flow of bad news stories that Libya posts in the news section more efficiently than any complaint or other method.

britmaveric Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Well read on another forum, problem with domain name, sent payment and some reason another they thought fraud was involved.

Meg_2003 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) If you dont want to read the news, then simply dont go in the news forum Just because you dont like to read bad news, doesnt mean others dont. Afterall, if there was no news reported, we wouldnt be able to take notice of whats going on around Pattaya and therefore wouldnt protect ourselves.

hm1973 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Hi Guys, Sorry for the extended downtime of the site. I have just sorted the problem out but will now have to upload the whole website again which is a mammoth task even with a 1mb connection. I anticipate, assuming there are no further problems, that the site should be back in its former glory including a full update of news which will include the days we were down, by Monday....but don't quote me on that!!!! Howard. ps. I would appreciate notification of any broken links. There will be plenty over the next few days as the site re-uploads. But if you find any on Monday please email me and I will fix the problems. [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libya's current events posts are the most interesting part of the Pattaya forum. I am only an occasional resident at my condo in Jomtien as I live in Bangkok most of the time and I appreciate the updates he provides. Sometimes--in fact a lot of the time--his posts are humourous and I often forward them to people who don't even have a clue that a place called Pattaya exists! Thanks Libya.

hm1973 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Hi Guys, This is wierd, others have told me that they have had connection problems in Thailand. I have checked my daily stats and they are now back to normal after the outage last week. I am baffled. Are there any web experts out there that can shed some light on this problem. Thanks Howard Pattaya City News Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I'm on Maxnet and can't access the site. Definitely some dns problems, the name simply doesn't resolve! When I ping using network-tools.com it resolves to this 75.126.140.216 IP address, which indicates you're hosted on WEBHOSTINGBUZZ.COM.... When I try to ping on my machine, Maxnet's dns servers simply don't return any IP address... Strange, since, when I had to change over dns servers once, I found that the info propagated very quickly, I was expecting a day or more, but it started resolving to the correct IP within a few hours! When testing with my GPRS (AIS) backup it resolves just fine! FYI, I sent an e-mail to TT&T maxnet asking them to reset/update their DNS servers...
