Hi Gary

oldsmobile dot what?

[Fedz]

Sorry just realised it's the servers friendly name Ha!

oldsmobile.hostgator.com (67.18.54.2) resolves to gator.hostgator.com

For me it's up and working:

oldsmobile.hostgator.com (67.18.54.2) 4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
Host reachable, average round-trip time: 31.732 ms

Have you considered using Host-Tracker to 3rd party monitor your site(s) from multiple locations around the world? It's free

Hope this helps

thanks for checking fedz,
looks like it was a local dns problem which is sorted now.
I'll certainly check out host-tracker - sounds like a useful tool, and I always enjoy free!

cheers
Gary
