DNS Woes
I've been quiet today because Charter's DNS has developed a peculiar problem: it fails to resolve the sites of just one server (so far as I can tell): mine. I can access every site I normally do except those I host and provide DNS services too. The server is up and running (confirmed via remote access I have to another computer, my server monitoring tools, as well as the help of Ed and others). While I could access the server via IP, I didn't feel like changing all of my programs so that they'd do the same for what I hope is a short outage.
Right now, I'm back thanks to a suggestion to try using the DNS servers 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 in lieu of Charter's ones that are normally fed to my computer via DHCP, and using those servers I can again access my sites.
It's a revolting development to be the only one unable to access your own site!
