Poor server resolution of "www."

longbowe · 08-05-2008, 04:53 PM

Okay, this is getting a little annoying. Every link in the forums seems to be missing the "www." prefix; either that or the web server is failing to resolve it by automatically adding the prefix. It works for a couple of the bigger forums, but every time I click on a link, or want to reply, quote, edit, etc., I would get a response saying that the server isn't found, but which I can fix by adding "www." in the address bar. But that's seriously getting old. What's being done to get this--pardon the pun--resolved?

I didn't get www in this reply, but it worked fine.

^Same here, maybe the problem is with your ISP

Mine works with or without the "www."

It should work with/without the "www"

What browser are you using by chance?

its probably your DNS. Do you have your ISP's DNS hardcoded into the router, or computer?
