[SLL] Web site semi-inaccessable

[Ski Kacoroski]

Hmm, I can get to it fine directly from a browser when I enter the
site name (I am in Dallas for a conference).  However, I get the same
error when using the IP you list, even though that is when I get when I
ping it.  My best guess is that the web server is set up to only
respond by folks accessing it by name, not by IP (e.g. a virtual named
server setup).  I am not sure if this helps or not.

cheers,

ski
