DNS problem

on: August 18, 2006, 12:57:18 PM

I have two connections, this works fine but the other cannot take me to
tekforums I get to 7 soft instead.
Can I flush DNS in any way ?

That is the correct IP. Are you trying www.tekforums.co.uk or tekforums.co.uk ? The latter will not work.

Did not work with www at first but when I remembered I had the old IP 88.208.200.117 for www.tekforums in the hosts file so I changed to present IP and it worked
