Whither PriusChat?

I just checked; it's up and running.

priuschat.com is still running

How very odd... I've tried Safari and Firefox, and even IE6 via Darwine and get no response. Perhaps my ISP has something against hybrids...

I just tried again, and it's still there, with messages posted as recently as a half hour ago.

I'm using a Mac with OS X 10.5.5 and Safari 3.2.1

Or just a DNS problem.

You are probably right.

Bream, paste the IP address (instead of priuschat.com) in the URL field. It is:

Nope... I still get:

Safari can?t open the page ?http://67.227.135.51/?. The error was: ?Operation could not be completed. (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork error 302.)? (kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork:302) Please choose Report Bugs to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.I'll try a few more things and see if I can find a solution.

Rats. With Windows XX at least, that would rule out a DNS problem.

It's a strange one. I get the same result on two other Macs, neither of which have the same update or plugins that I've got. On the iPod I get the message that the network connection was lost. Even stranger is that I've had the same problem at work... different computer, different ISP, different DNS. I haven't tried it from my Windows box at work yet. I'll try it Monday.

Can you drop to DOS and ping that IP address? I know nothing about Apples.

Try asking at comp.sys.mac.system Maybe someone there can help you figure it out.

Sure there is. Terminal. Then use any UNIX command you like.

Well, they seem to be pretty selective about it. PriusChat is the only web site that I can't seem to contact, either by http or ping. I can ping almost every address I try, but sites such as Amazon or MacDailyNews do not respond to pings, although the web pages work fine.

This discussion has gotten way off-topic for this group. At least it's been confirmed that PriusChat hasn't gone down. I'll figure out my little problem at some point. Thanks to everyone for the help!

That's not the same.

Yes, it is. The OS gives you access to a command line interface.

PriusChat isn't down and it's not a DNS problem. That leaves firewall/router/application security possibilities. Good luck!
