ICQed it to you.

The IPs work.

No they don't. They do not respond to ping requests or http requests from remote testing facilities.

could you show this :

I will be shutting down this server shortly to take a snapshot, backup, and take a swing at getting it all to work with MySQL 5.1 before posting a How To. I don't expect to be successful as DA mentioned to me a couple months ago that they had not been successful due to a problem with the packages. The only way I've gotten 5.1 to work thus far is by using ports.

Thanks!

They ping fine from here, and the pinging of those addresses has always worked. The vhosts were the only problem. Perhaps localhost can give them a ping and post whether he can ping them or not.

Thanks!

Hi Floyd,

I see the problem! What I sent you is not what I'm using. I accidentally made a mistake typing the message with the IP addresses that I sent you originally. Starting the second message by copying from the original message didn't help matters. My mistake huge. However, you are well aware that I PMed you because I did not want the addresses on a public forum. Thus, the address mistake actually turned out to be unanticipated providence since I learned quite inexpensively that you cannot be trusted with information shared in confidence, an unfortunate fact that you, yourself, have made evident to all by your actions.

First of all domains and ip addresses are NOT confidential information. By their very nature they are public. If you take a few minute and read many of the threads in this forum you will see how we, you know the people who are trying to help YOU, fight against this crap all the time. I can be trusted with confidential information when I am actually given confidential information.

Second, me posting what I did revealed the mistake you made. So it was good that I did post it. Me posting it helped who? YOU. If I had not posted it then we would still be arguing back and forth about whether the ip's work.

Whether you know it or not the very first thing we have to establish is whether the ip's work. Only now we can move on from there except that you are still not willing to give out the information we need to actually help you.

Obscuring dns and domain information is the number one time waster on this forum. It prevents people from actually helping you.

Look at the number of posts I have made throughout the years. Yet I have probably asked less than 10 questions here. There is a reason for that. You should learn to listen to ones who may know more than you. After all that IS why you asked your question here.

You can call me an arrogant know it all if you want. But I am guessing you still do not have it working and you are not willing to listening to ones who could help. And as a courtesy I am deleting the ip's in my previous post. But do not think for a moment that displaying your ip's has anything at all to do with security or anything of the sort.

You've proven otherwise here.

The problem was solved before that. Read the thread. Localhost was the one on this thread who had an idea that surfaced exactly where the problem was. That occurred well before I realized I had type the wrong IP's in the PM.

You are tearing down your own image by making statements like that. This is not a student vs teacher venue. It's common knowledge that one person cannot compete with the knowledge and experience of a group. While not the case here, I and many others often leverage the synergy of a group even when they may have a solution in hand. The multiple viewpoints and experiences of other people most often produce a better solution than any individual idea.

But I am guessing you still do not have it working and you are not willing to listening to ones who could help.

I don't understand why you would make such a statement. It's working fine, and I thanked everyone on this thread when it did.

Everybody has the ability to help other people in some area. I've waded through a lot of threads here over the years. I've learned from some of your posts. However, it has not escaped my attention that you've also pushed a lot of buttons that didn't need pushing. You debase yourself in the minds of others when you do. You won't always have the best solution for every problem and nobody would lay an impossible expectation like that on you or anyone else. Input is appreciated no matter where it comes from. I simply say these things for your own benefit.

This thread has denegrated into an argument between two posters and without indicating which side I'm on, I've decided to close it so as not to waste time of others who may look at it each time it's updated. Please do not restart this discussion on another thread unless you've got a response which will be helpful to the DirectAdmin community at large. Thank you.
