• I won't help for Epic beer. You wanna change the brand? So how do you connect to the server, whats the domainname and to what does it resolve? Is it the external IP? Did you do some tracerting?

• Server is on the same switch as PC, domainname is www.spudooli.com and I have that along with it's private IP address in my hosts file. Never throught to do a traceroute. Both devices are on my internal network

• I suggest you comment the entry in your hosts file, flush the dns on your pc and see what happens. Good luck! How do you rate Epic beer, mate?

• Two stupid questions that you've possibly already tried: 1. It's very easy for people who think about software all day to entirely forget about hardware. Have you checked the switchport and cable to your internal PC and its NIC? 2. Have you turned up the loglevel to debug in apache to see what is happening at a low level when you request a page internally? Oh, and a third question: You clearly have excellent taste in beer (it seems Epic is going almost mainstream now, good on it, couldn't happen to a nicer beer) - have you considered joining SOBA? I'd post a link but your blog might think I'm a spammer rather than a passionate beer advocate. ;) www dot soba dot org dot nz. You know you want to.

• Make sure reverse DNS lookup either (a) works, or (b) is turned off in the Apache config. Docs: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#hostnamelookups

• apt-get install mtr mtr your-pc-hostname then try route it will be your dns resolv setup broke, cat /etc/resolv.conf

• stop hosting that stuff AT HOME and move it to somewhere we can really take care of it. That will solve your problems. That'll be one case of epic, thanks.

• Given that none of the comments above solve your problem and are clearly not beer worthy, I suggest you get a geek in. I'll collect my Epic on Sunday thanks.

• hey, wild guess here you never know you may have gone over the limit (internet download wise) and you may have been "punished" back down to dial up speed. this wouldn't affect your lan ( your pc and server) but anything outside this would be affected whether uploading or downloading. in which case you would have to wait till your isp takes your limiter off, or contact your isp and explain your situation. as i say.. just a guess as i recently had some problems of this sort. Hope it helps

• Alright, I'll take a crack. I assume you're trying to access your server with www.spudooli.com. Create an entry in your windows hosts file which points www.spudooli.com to the internal IP address of your server. Once you've made the change, completely quit your browser, reopen and try browsing to www.spudooli.com. cheers
