Website Resolution


We just moved several websites from one office to another, i.e. all the ip numbers changed from 208.xxxxx to 216.xxxxxx.

We are running RH 7.3 on an HP server.

With our firewall turned off we can open the default website with http://216.xxxxx but the domain name will not resolve.

Obviously, our sysadmin has changed the db.xxxx records and another file "conf" and, of course looked and looked through everything for the old 208.xxxx,....but still no name resolution.

The default website is http://www.health-science.com.

Is there an obvious configuration we are missing???

Thanks,

David

Why do you have to turn off the firewall? did you mean to say that you can't hit the said IP with the firewall ON.

I'm no expert at this, AFAIK it takes some time for the global DNS servers to update the records. Maybe you could do a nslookup and check the IP to which http://www.health-science.com is mapped?

correct. we have two issues to resolve, but the name resolution is most important.

It is now closed, since it is a double post. Please respond to the same identical thread in the Networking forum.
