It's the job of the webmaster to make access to Stuka as easy as possible.  No one wants to "fiddle" around with software just to access the site.  Once people vacate a site, they are unlikely to return.

Really, guys, it's still there, and the issue is that your domain name server (at the ISP or selected by the ISP) hasn't updated since it was off-line the other day.

Whatever the cause, it resolved itself (or got fixed) in a day or so and was back to normal.

    This is not a problem with your computer. It seems to be that the domain became unregistered for a few hours on Thursday or Friday, and that your ISP's domain name server still has the unregistered message site, not the actual site. It will clear itself up in a few days, I think.

    There are new posts there as of today and another one in a few minutes.

Yo, Tony...bent nose yes, tinfoil hat, no. I was actually jabbing at Sparky a little, because he always says "It's on your end".

Actually, I went to SSW in several different ways, from the link somebody posted, also shortened the url to .com/, and also by Googling for "Stuka Stunt Works". These can lead to some wandering through the site, looking for the link to the forum. Never failed to find the forum, tho.

I expect Brett has it figured out. FWIW, ComCast is my ISP. If your ISP is also ComCast and you can't get on SSW....hmmmm.  D>K Steve

It is a DNS expired lease issue, and the DNS chain of servers hasn't picked up the new refresh yet.

Simple,fix. Bypass your local ISP DNS servers and switch to Google public DNS server.

In your TCPIP settings, you can manually config DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

As per this page. https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/

Stuka stunt will come right up, and you won't be reliant on your ISP's DNS server anymore.

Disclaimer, legal speak and such: Do at your own risk, if you mess with other settings by mistake, you can dissconnect yourself from the internet, but its simple enough to put back if you jot down the original settings before you touch anything.

   Very good, I knew that was the problem but I didn't think of trying to use Google's.

Just did as you suggested and was able to get on. Funny thing is, earlier from work I was able to get on using my iphone. While I was reading your post at home I tried my phone again and no good. Something seriously wrong.


   Not necessarily wrong, just incomplete.

Glad I could help.

The probable reason your Iphone stopped working at home is because your Iphone is likely set to use your home wifi instead of cellular when in proximity to save your cell data plan bytes. So, your home wifi router is also probably set to use your isp dns like your pc was. You can change that too if you know how...  but I really don't like suggesting people start tinkering in their routers unless they are already comfortable doing so. Chances are good that if you turn off wifi in your iphone when home, it will find Stuka Stunt, or, if you know ios, you can set dns there too.

EricV's Reply #82 contained the answer to my difficulty in connecting to Stuka Stunt.  I had lost the ability to connect for as long as this thread has been active.  Based on Eric's comments, I changed my computer's internet settings for the default DNS addresses from "automatic" to the "8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4" values.  After rebooting my computer, Stuka Stunt was again accessible.  By the way, I am running Firefox on a Windows XP Pro system.  Thanks Eric.

Why don 't you guys get the owner / operator of Stuka Stunt to shut it down and join Stunt Hangar?  The time people spend going back and forth between the sites could be spent working on a plane, etc.  All the information you need is here.   

 

There is a pretty extensive archive of old posts from the likes of GMA, and other notables that have passed on still over there... and a lot of still very useful tech content as well, even including how to fix your H*nda, and some great Monty Python quotes. It would be a shame to lose all that. Plus, it is another avenue for retreads to stumble into when doing a web browser search query. I've never thought less was more in a situation like this. I will go further to say that yes, it has been a might slow over there, and if Len ever did decide to shut it down, I hope someone like Sparky can host the old posts in some sort of a locked but searchable archive database for posterity.

Eric, that is exactly what I think.  Stuka Stunt could give Sparky the archives and instead there being rivalry, they work together.   I don't see it as a failure of Stuka Stunt.  Control line is declining.  We are dying off.  Youth are not becoming control line pilots like in the old days. There just does not seem to be enough people to support both sites.   

    I am not sure why you think there is a rivalry, there are two different forums, but it's not a contest.

There are knowledgeable, experienced flyer/builders who, for whatever their reasons, post only on SSW.
They have been very helpful in the past and I value both forums very much.

Well, I just tried again with no luck. I do not feel comfortable playing with settings so, I will just have to abandon the site for a while. I will check if I can get back in to the site in a couple of weeks. I tried resetting my router, modem, restarted my computer, all with no luck.

I can't access it either, but I haven't changed my settings yet. Neither my PC on Time Warner/Spectrum nor my phone with Verizon (with wifi turned off). I've been typing clstunt.com.

Seems to me that SSW is finished. They let something expire and are doing nothing to fix it. If I knew what to fix, I would do it. But I don't. Bye SSW.

Garf, you did not read all the posts apparantly, there are a good number of people that are able to get on, so the site is still there,, thats kinda like saying your neighbor moved, and then your kids see them walking across the lawn,, lol??

I just Googled for "Stuka Stunt Forum" and went where Google said. Worked fine. Made a post in the thread about making the profile Tucker Special.

I recall having a problem with some ISP's or email systems not allowing an email from one of the email providers I've used...can't recall which...single email to a single address...apparently their opinion was that anybody using that brand of email was a spammer, so I got rejected. What I recall was that I was trying to contact somebody on RCGroups to buy an engine, and he had to contact his ISP or email system and ask them to fix it, which they did, at their end. I don't know if this is the solution in the case of SSW Forum.  :-\ Steve

Why is it that I need to make changes to be able to view a site that I have been viewing for years and others can see. makes no sense to me.

  To first approximation, it's really pretty simple. When you type in a URL or otherwise, your ISP has to map that to an actual address , called the IP address. There's a look-up table selected by your ISP that sees "www.clstunt.com" and translates to an IP address (in this case, 64.27.52.194). These look-up tables are stored on a machine called the Domain Name Server (DNS). These are provided by hosting companies to the individual DNS. You ISP chooses which domain name server to use, or runs one themselves.

   For whatever reason, the DNS entry for SSW was temporarily disabled. It could have been due to service on the DNS, service at 64..., mistakenly considering the domain expired, or any number of other things. That disabled domain entry got into some DNSs, including the one you are using, and hasn't been updated with the corrected information. These are updated periodically, usually in a few days, but apparently once a week for whichever DNS your ISP uses. The suggested workaround is to select a DIFFERENT DNS  - publicly available from Google in this case - with the right address and routing information. I had the same problem, the difference was, my DNS was updated with the correct information within a few hours. Apparently yours wasn't and hasn't yet.  I can get on from here (home) but not from work, at least not as of Monday when I last tried it.

    This has nothing to do with your computer, and almost certainly nothing to do with Leonard Neumann, or anything outside *your* ISP and whichever DNS they have set for your use. If you want to complain to someone, it is at *your* ISP, the DNS that they are using does not contain the correct information. Don't expect anyone at the first line service desk to understand what the issue is, however, it's their issue. I expect it will correct itself pretty soon, and there is certainly something that the DNS host could correct if they were inclined to.

Well after a Windows 10 update I can now view SS works. Is this the first symptom of the US giving up ICCAN name server and control over it? I think this is just the beginning.

 I finally broke down and Emailed Leonard directly, notifying him that many of us were having this issue. I just checked now and all seems good. This was Leonard's explanation...

 It seems It seems the problem was I was using their “outdated (more than 2 years old) nameservers in my domain.”  That’s nice, because this forum has been up for 17 years, and except for changing providers several times, I have never had to “update” for any “old” more than 2 years old) nameservers.

 It seems all should be back to normal now.  H^^

   It doesn't have anything to do with Windows 10.

    I don't know if it has anything to do with giving up ICANN - I doubt it, just because it wasn't broken at the level of ICANN, and basic inertia of the system,  but hard to say.

I got these emails from Leonard:
"I went to name secure but can't find the link they say is there to "fix" the thing.  The people on my host server said they would take care of it if I gave them the information which I did.  I am waiting now to hear from them. The interesting thing is I had no knowledge there was a problem of any kind as I can access the forum just like normal in the same way you do.  It has also been up on the internet for 17 years (the longest running model airplane forum) and I have never faced this "problem" before.  It is new to me.

Leonard Neumann"

and:
"I just got notification that the thing is done.  Just needs a couple of hours to propagate through the internet and all should be well again.

Leonard Neumann"

And I'm happy to see the problem fully resolved.
