But it does seem that something in the DNS for ravenhome has gotten lost or broken. I'd contact the people at dyndns.org since you are using them and ask what is going on and how you can work together to correct it. They have a rep for being helpful so..... use it. I think it's their glitch not yours. James > > > >
