Default my350z doesn't work on other computer?

For some reason when i try to access my350z on my regular computer i still get the page that says:

"My350Zz is being moved to a new data center. This should alleviate the problems we've been seeing lately. It should be done around 4:00pm pdt today (Thursday.)"

what gives? I'm using firefox. i tried accessing through IE also. Cleared cookies and internet files, tried logging in and out. Found out i could access the site from work. Now I'm on the laptop at home. Any one else?

ps: g35driver and all other sister sites are working fine.

Do you have a hard-coded IP address defined on that computer? The new site has a new IP address.

well I mean my computer ip is not hard coded but my350z is possibly modified from long ago when the site had changed awhile back also... I forgot how to change that in firefox. But that wouldnt explain why IE doesn't work :/

^its your dns file.

goto c:windows\system32\drivers\etc\ and change the "hosts" file. Back when my350z.com lost its DNS registration a lot of people had to manually put the ip in their host files. Well, the ip changed but your computer was looking elsewhere.

Open the hosts file with a txt editor, delete the entry for my350z.com, close and save. Close all your browsers, reopen and my350z.com will reload fine.

This was exactly it! Thanks for reminding me! I then realized it was the sticky in this forum! Doh!

On another note.... it took me 5 minutes, 10 attempts to login and finally get this posted.

Hmm.. Does anybody know why I can't click on a direct link in Firefox? In some threads, it'll have a direct link to another thread on my350z.com. Whenever I click on those, I get:

"Not Found

The requested URL /forum/showthread.php was not found on this server.
Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at www.my350z.com Port 80"


How do I fix this? It works fine in Internet Explorer, just not in Firefox.

Is it the difference between www.my350z.com and my350z.com ? I've noticed both used in different places. I know when I had the hardcoded IP address in my hosts file, I had entries for both URLs because it was needed to work properly.

Are you talking to me?

If so, I don't think that's it. All I know is that the people who are putting hyperlinks in their posts, just copy the url from their browser to their post. When I try to click on it, I get that error message I posted in my previous post.

But, I do know what you're talking about, as I had to do that previously for IE when my350z.com went down. I got rid of that recently as it moved servers.

Again, IE works fine. It's just Firefox that won't let me view threads when going through hyperlinks.

I haven't been able to log in from my home office pc for over a year. Only my laptop. When I log in, it goes back to the homepage to log in again. I just figured it was a security issue and just stuck to the laptop.
