Orablogs still seems to have DNS issues



I saw Ed Stanglers post to his blog last night titled "OraBlogs Cached" and went to have a look. Basically Ed is confirming the worst, that http://www.orablogs.com - (broken link) Orablogs is still unreachable via its domain name. I talked about the problem of Orablogs not being reachable and the problem being DNS related. My post was titled "Orablogs seems to be down - or maybe not!". Brian confirmed the issue was DNS by email and also in a post titled "Hopefully all is well again" where he says he has fixed the DNS and that it should be working. This was five days ago, but it is still not working.

This is a shame as Orablogs is a great resource for anyone interested in news about Oracle, new papers long and short and links to lots of new and old info. I wanted to raise a short post to let people know that Brian's site is still not available via the domain name but can be reached via the IP address as follows:
