    Default Trouble logging onto CWS

    I have been trying to log onto the Carols Woodcraft Supplies form the ad link for a couple of days. Is it just me or are others having the same problem.

    Looks like Jim has a DNS problem, his site can't be found from anywhere.

    It's not you, looks like someone made a boo-boo with the link as it is incorrect , I will notify Admin to correct that.

    In the meantime try this one
    Cheers

    The link is correct www.cws.au.com it is supposed to be .au.com not .com.au. The fault is with Carroll's server. It's being worked on but by the sounds of things could be a while before it's back up. Major blackout there last night seems to have caused the problem.

    I'm suer Jim will let you know in here when their back on again.

    Cheers - Neil

    PS we also had 2 outages of around 15 minutes each yesterday and in the wee small hrs this-morning.

    We are back with minimal service and something has corrupted our dns server so they are busily working on it.

    Some body tried to put 3 phase into one and it did not work.

    It took 12 hours to repair the power hopefully this glitch will be fixed quicker.

    Default More than an electrical problem!

    My son works in the IT security industry and he tells me that there is a really bad problem out there... very technical but what is happening is that people have worked out ways to hijack DNS servers... (that is what tells a user's computer where to go to connect to various sites...(typically at the isp level or in bigger businesses) it is not part of a users compter but all the servers out there). If a server has not been patched correctly then it is vulnerable and then can be used to infiltrate other servers and even if patched, they can still get some access via port forwarding. I sort of understood while he was explaining it to me but it is hard to explain to someone else!

    If you are still having problems with the www.cws.au.com site try this one http://cws-store.yahoostore.com.au/
