IIS or DNS problem?

Hello! Currently I feel like I am

I was hoping this great community might be able to offer me some ideas...

I currently have a DNS Only account with EASYDNS, and so far it’s been great! However, for some reason my domain name has stopped forwarding to the right IP (or any IP!)

When I type in the IP directly I get my current home-page (not setup, but I know it’s mine as I can access my sub-directories on it).

81.86.103.175

However, when I type in my Domain name, I get a ‘cannot be displayed’ error

w w w . house-arrest.co.uk

I was hoping you might be able to enlighten me as to why this is happening. Have I set the DNS records up wrong? My MX records are fine, as my mail server is working correctly.

However, my DNS appears to have spontaneously stopped working. I was doing some server work this weekend, however if my server or Firewall was at fault, surely it wouldn’t work when the IP is typed in directly?

When I perform a DNS lookup at DNSstuff.com I get my IP, so I am truly frustrated.

Any advice you can offer to narrow down this fault would be very much appreciated.

Welcome to Dev Shed.

I can view the site fine from outside your network.

The only thing I noticed was that 1 of your nameservers is not listed at the parent server (domain registrar). ns6.easydns.com .. You may want to add it to the domain registrar and retry...
