Is that going to help? Won't it just take you to the "lunarpages" site?

It works because the host is using "name based" virtual hosts. If you get to the IP address directly, it sends you to the default host. If you get there by asking for a domain name, the server uses that information to choose the appropriate host.

Hey, everybody... just got back from a short vacation, to find my announcement on the front page, and all these great comments... thanks to everybody, and to everybody, enjoy the book!
Dirk, I'm sorry your ISP hadn't updated their IPs sooner... and I thought Comcast took forever! Every ISP will tell you that their IPs should be updated in 24-48 hours, but as we've all learned, that isn't always the case. The problems I've had with ISPs over the years could... say... they could fill a book! Anyway, glad you could finally get through. (And yass... you gotta love PayPal instant delivery!) Again, I can't thank MobileRead enough for their kind words and support, for me, for e-books, and for guys like Dirk! ![]() |

(Heh... I just started working onsite at an office with their own servers, and I've discovered that they haven't updated their IPs yet either!)
![]() And before you try to help me fix it, let me assure you that I have no access to any internal PC settings to "punch through" to the address... ![]() |
