The hosting company changed IP addresses on Thursday. Unfortunately, I
haven't been able to log in to the domain registrar to update the DNS
records for talkorigins.org. Thanks to Douglas Theobald, though, we now
have the pages accessible via a new domain name:

http://toarchive.org

This is expected to be a temporary re-assignment of domain name, and once I
can establish communication with the talkorigins.org domain registrar, it
will shift back to talkorigins.org. Please pardon the inconvenience.

I don't think we have the Constitutional power to pardon you.

Wesley,

Did they change addresses for their own domain name servers? If so then you
should not have to do anything because the talk origins domain should still
resolve once those dns servers propagate. When I just checked a dig on
talkorigins.org resolved to 3 dns servers at joker.com. Is that correct?

If on the other hand they changed the range of IPs they serve you would
have to change the IP of the Darwin server. Dig resolves TO to
209.200.243.184, but an nslookup on darwin.talkorigins.org does not
resolve.

Something about the domain name joker.com troubles me, is that the
legitimate dns host for talkorigins.org?

This alternative has stopped working for me.

The talkorigins.org domain is once again working for the Archive.

Both talkorigins.org and toarchive.org currently point to the Archive's
pages.
