A lot of people just don't type the "www" part, because if you just type the "linux.org" part and it's not found, then the browser automatically prepends "www." and trys again. Also, many sites have the "www.abc.xyz" in DNS point to the same server as "abc.xyz". However, in this case, linux.org returns a valid IP address, there just isn't a web server there, so nothing happens...On Wednesday 19 October 2005 15:42, taharka wrote:Any one here know whats up with their site?
