The Circvs is down?

I tried to access the Circvs, but it looks like it's down. What the heck is wrong?

It's renewed. The "automatic safe renew" feature appears to have not automatically, safely renewed it. I had to go do it manually. Should be fine; maybe some propogation issues?

Now it will just take time for DNS servers to stop caching the old info and all should be well....

For people that still can't get there due to cached entries on their DNS server, you can add the following to your hosts file to get there in the interim:

Code:
65.127.163.19   www.circvsmaximvs.com

Good. At least it wasn't something horrible like the server crashing or something.

Whew

As of 2058 hrs (8:57pm) Eastern Standard Time it was down. Any idea as to when Circvs will be up?

Also 65.127.163.19 is an IP address....I just have no idea what to do with it except ping it.

reveal pointed out it is only a temp fix. If the IP address ever changes you will have to remove the line from your HOSTS file. Find your HOSTS file. I don't know which OS you're using. Open it in a text editor and copy the IP address and URL above into it. Make sure there is at least one space in between.

Huh, I've had no problems getting there all day long. Guess it just likes me better than it does you, TS.

Your DNS refreshed like many others. TS's has not. Mine hasn't either. I'm using the HOSTS fix for now.

Bizarrely I managed to get on to CM last night, but today it's back to the register.com page.
