[Mark Pennell]

Dear All
Please be aware that the BTS members web site will be down for a day or so while we move hosts.

The main web site and forum will follow shortly after...

Please be patient while this changes take place.

Sorry its your ISP, you'll have to wait to they clear there cache. Works fine for me at home but not from work's Internet.

Also try clearing your cache locally in you browser.

I get....


"www.britishtarantulasociety.co.uk could not be found. Please check the name and try again."

Am I being really blonde and there's a way to access BTS members area other than from the little link on the home page?

I need to learn the art of patience!

Works fine for me from home. Just checked on work via SSH, and it's there too. Both on different ISPs, by the way.

If you're still having trouble try hitting the windows Start button, and in the command box command type in ipconfig /flushdns. That should clear your local DNS resolver client cache

No, there is no other way by the looks of it. As Mark says, it is your ISP most likely. They have not updated their DNS servers yet to take account of the site move. It can take up to 48 hours to update in some instances.

Phil is quite right, our work internet connection all works now, its just wait and let you ISP update the DNS...
