I normally log onto this site from my home computer, but since last week, i have been unable to log on, and i keep getting the following error message when i try to go to www.my350z.com

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apache/1.3.27 Server at www.my350z.com Port 80



It know i did not do anything to warrent an IP block, and i can't find any contact info for the site moderators, I tried PMing Mike, but he hasn't gottne back to me as of yet..
Please contact me Via E-MAIL , if anyone can help me out, beacues i can't check this post from home (im on a computer at my college right now)
I checked all my connection and it is only my350z that i can't get on, all my other message boards work, and it effects all the computers on my home network, so i know its not a setting somewhere.

My email is Marksix59k@hotmail.com, any help in fixing this matter would be great.

 

nbdy gets around to answering his PMs fairly quickly. Hope that helps...

 

Just PMed him and Mike, hopefully one of them will get back to me. THanks nismo kid

 

ares is online and he's a moderator, too.

 

I am unaware of any recent IP ban. I will place a copy of your post in the Moderator Forum for review. Mike will see it there. It is probably just a glitch in the system.

Sorry for the inconvience.

BTW I tried to email you and this is what happened.

An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'IP Ban', Account: 'rraymond@womenshlthcare.com', Server: 'mail.klphosting.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0B

Norel350Z,

You have not been banned.I have polled the other mods and there has been no such action against your account.

You still show up as a regular member. We are continuing to investigate. Obviously there is a glitch. Hopefully it will be corrected shortly.

Ok, so that "403 - can't access /" is definitely an apache error. That means that this server is, for some reason, treating his IP differently from anyone else. When I looked it up on the apache site, it says it can be the result of a mal-formed Files section of the apache config file. There's a bug in Red Hat's linuxconf that creates such a malformed section. Just one possibility.

 

thanks for looking that up nbdy, i was trying to find info on apache severs, but i couldn't find anyhthing on their error messages. I really appreciate all the help you guys are putting into it.

On a side note, I belive my problem started after the site was down about 3 weeks ago, so maybe in the process of the site crashing, something got messed up, that result in this block.

The only catch is, its not just one IP address, ive tried it from 3 diffrent computers on my home network, and its still not working. Therefore, it makes me think that this could be releated to some with my DNS suffix, or some other Non-IP distinguisher. When I try to log on at my buddies house who uses the same ISP as me (Cablevision's Optimum Online cable modem) i can get on no problem, and here i sit as school (Hofstra University) typing, and im able to log on without incident. So im quite confused as to what the problem could be.

Ill do my best to check the forums from school or my buddies house, as to how the situation progresses, but your best bet to reach me is still my Email. Not sure why Rainman had a problem, if you need my Email again its

Marksix59k@hotmail.com
or
BrendanNarell@hotmail.com

Thanks again for all your help.
