    Distrowatch

    Anyone else having problems accessing Distrowatch today?

    I get some hosting page instead.

    Looks like they forgot to renew the domain registration.

    Earlier today, the .com domain was showing it had expired on 3 July.

    Now, it's listed as renewed. If that's all that was going on, "distrowatch.com" should be available once the DNS percolates around the net.

    The site's been available off and on here via the .org domain.

    .org is working here, .com is not, it shows the registrar's (or whatever) page still.

    Re: Distrowatch

    how can you "forget"? what kind of host is that?

    i start getting emails to renew a month before expiration then two weeks, a week, a couple of days and then a day before ... anyway plenty of emails on this topic when it's time to renew. they make sure i do not "forget" and stay with them.
    Read the easy to understand, lots of pics Ubuntu manual.
    Do i need antivirus/firewall in linux?
