Expected Results:
Expected to reach the site :)

Additional Information:
I tried this from two different points:
1. from Bellsouth's ADSL network, as above
2. from Interpath's SDSL network
same results.
Also sent a message to interpath this afternoon, no response.

FYI I would be happy to provide mirror space and bandwidth, free for the
asking.  It really hurts that I cannot get to the online documentation for
interchange.

Comment 1 Josh Wyatt 2001-08-08 04:59:33 UTC
Could someone please at least contact the Akopia folks and see what the deal is?
Thanks again in advance,
Josh


Comment 2 Tom Lancaster 2001-08-08 19:15:00 UTC
Cameron, can you look at this ?

Comment 3 Jay Turner 2001-08-08 19:26:32 UTC
There are problems with PSINet in Reston . . . pretty sure this is related to
the issues that we are seeing.  In addition, Cameron is not getting email as a
result of this problem, so he's not going to get this bug notice til the network
is fixed again.

Comment 4 Josh Wyatt 2001-08-08 19:43:55 UTC
Actually, they should be able to receive mail to anything @akopia.com.  The MX
record for akopia.com is mail.akopia.com (207.235.6.207), which is *not* in the
same netblock.

In fact, telnet'ing to port 25 of mail.akopia.com show's that they should be
able to receive mail:
[jdwyatt@ice jdwyatt]$ date
Wed Aug  8 15:51:31 EDT 2001
[jdwyatt@ice jdwyatt]$ telnet mail.akopia.com 25
Trying 207.235.6.207...
Connected to akopia.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 www.akopia.com ESMTP ready
quit
221 www.akopia.com closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.

Interestingly the mail server identifies itself as www.akopia.com, but
connecting to port 80 there gives a 301 (moved permanently) error.

Thanks,
Josh


Comment 5 Jay Turner 2001-08-08 20:09:05 UTC
OK, I'll put it in different terms.  By Cameron's own admission, he has not been
reading mail all day.  Hence my previous comment.

Comment 6 Josh Wyatt 2001-08-08 20:12:15 UTC
Sorry for jumping to conclusions; too much Bawls and Kosmic Kola I s'pose.
Thanks,
josh


Comment 7 Josh Wyatt 2001-08-09 17:06:20 UTC
Looks like the sites are back up and available as of 1:00pm EST, 9 Aug 2001.
Thanks for all the help guys.
Thanks,
Josh
