DNS for meta.xpilot.org not working

Post by rotunda »

Since there seem to be some problems with the xpilot.org domain, I'm posting just in case the current list of XPilot servers:

Quick and dirty fix if you are using a Unix-like OS and your client cannot connect to the meta server. Add this line at the bottom of your /etc/hosts:

Code: Select all

64.235.48.198   meta.xpilot.org meta2.xpilot.org

UPDATE: the problem doesn't seem to concern the domain itself, but how it is propagated throughout name servers. In some networks the domain is available and in some others not. We hope the situation will come back to normal soon.
