Is anyone else having problems using Sheryl's Priceline board at ezboards? I have been unable to access it for two days.

I've been trying since yesterday. I tried a short time ago and it went through but it took a VERY long time. Haven't tried since then.

Ezboard was down for scheduled maintenance but is back up now.

Just got an e-mail on that. I love that board! It has saved me LOTS of money.

Hmmm..... I still can't get through. I tried two different dialups, so I don't think the problem is on my end. I hate bidding in the blind!

It might be a DNS thing, they've changed servers and it might have been a change in IP address and that change has not propogated yet ...

I can't get to it either.... I tried doing a lookup to get the exact IP address (so I could bypass the Domain Name Server), but I couldn't seem to find it.

Anybody know what it is? (it should be something like this: 203.59.384.38 )

This site listed below normally converts DNS to IP, but it doesn't work for me for ************ (it works for others, like microsoft.com )

I did get to the site and it had this message posted on the home page:
ATTENTION: We are currently experiencing network glitches. We appreciate your patience while we investigate the performance problems.

Hope all is back to normal soon.

I can't get the sheryl's board to work, but the survivorsucks.com boards work (also on ezboard). they were down during the ezboard maintenance. I don't know what that means, though! :rolleyes:

The Priceline board is down again. I'm just as anxious for these maintenance issues to be handled as everyone else is. :rolleyes:

I still can't get on.... Was anybody able to get the direct IP address that we can use? (if somebody can get to www.************ (http://www.************), then if you would be so kind and try the link that I have above, it should give you the direct IP address)

Ok, here is the direct IP address....

IP address of ************: 209.247.51.192
IP address of pub4.************: 209.247.51.4

so, for those looking for the board who still can't get to it, this should work:

http://209.247.51.4/bpricelineandexpediabidding.html

YEAH!!!!

Unfortunately, although the above link does work, all the subsequent links on the site still have pub4.************ as the URL. So, when you click on anything, it doesn't work... (and this includes 'logging into ezboard').

So, my suggestion was a good one, but it isn't going to work...
