IP address question

05-11-2007

Someone in another newsgroup is having difficulty accessing
www.hexrpg.com. I determined that the IP address for this is (supposed
to be) 67.15.230.41. However, entering that IP address yields a
different page. Actually it's a blank page, and the code is merely:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html;
charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

And a few days ago, this IP address yielded a page that contained only
the following cryptic statement:

"Hi, mito, just for fun!"

A WHOIS search result on Network Solutions showed that the registrant is
Domains By Proxy. Is there any way to determine the *real* IP address
for hexrpg.com?!

Also, (for what it's worth) I noticed that the site failed validation
(67 errors):

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...doctype=Inline

Any explanations?

Lots of responses, but none answer my question!

Briefly, if the IP address of this site is 67.15.230.41, then why
doesn't entering http://67.15.230.41/ yield the same result?

I'm guessing this is a DNS issue, but I'm not really sure.

Ping -a -r 9 <both ways> gives the same results
ev1s-67-15-230-41.ev1servers.net:http

One oddity, using TCPview
67.15.230.41 always gets just one connection
hexrpg.com gets three or more connections

I thought we had this settled. hexrpg.com is on a shared web host
server, possibly with a thousand other web sites. They all have the same
IP address. You need to enter the actual domain name to get to the
"Hogwarts Extreme" site.

If your browser does not take you to the site, you may need to flush
your DNS.

There can be more than one website at a given IP.

The website http://www.hexrpg.com is equivaleng to

telnet 67.15.230.41 80
GET / HTTP/1.1
HOST: www.hexrpg.com

The website http://67.15.230.41 is equivalent to

telnet 67.15.230.41 80
GET / HTTP/1.0

or equivalently

GET / HTTP/1.1
HOST: 67.15.230.41

If you want to browse a website named www.whatthefck.ca and either
you can't resolve the address but you know what it should be or the IP
has changed but you want to see the old website which hasn't been
taken down you put a line in your hosts file like

255.254.253.252 www.whatthefck.ca

Your hosts file is in C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in
XP/Vista
It is in C:\windows\hosts in 98/ME
It is in /etc/hosts in Linux

DNS looks at your hosts file before it goes to your ISP's DNS server.
