No luck here either, even with the correct spelling. $ ping tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au PING tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au (134.148.236.121) 56(84) bytes of data. --- tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au ping statistics --- 14 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 13002ms $ ping tolstoi.newcastle.edu.au ping: unknown host tolstoi.newcastle.edu.au Seems to be a problem with that machine.
