Subject:  [VOICENWS] Net: commTalk Forum Site Availability

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++ 

From: mailDESPAM at DESPAMsubsys.de

Since April 4th, 2010 the German discussion forum commtalk.org is not reachable anymore because the domain points to the wrong server.  

Until we can fix this, you can use the following work-around to access commtalk.org.  

On OS/2, eCS:  

You should have this line in your CONFIG.SYS file:  

SET USE_HOSTS_FIRST=1  

Add this line to your \MPTN\ETC\HOSTS file:  

134.102.3.5 commtalk.org www.commtalk.org   

Other OS:  

With Windows, you find the file at C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and with Linux at /etc/host.   

Some users reported the entry in HOSTS-list have to be like this:  

134.102.3.5 www.commtalk.org #commtalk.org  

(entries separated with tabs)  

If you have any problems contact me via at:  

mail(at)subsys.de

Sorry for the inconvenience, we are working on a solution.
