This is Super Odd

August 21st, 2008 by Justin Leave a reply »

One of my home machines (Ubuntu AMD64 8.04 Desktop) can’t get to this website anymore.

The name resolves.
I don’t have an override in /etc/hosts.
I can ping it.
But I can’t access it through any browser or FTP to it. Firefox, Konqueror, and lynx all fail. So do ‘ftp’ and ‘netcat’ clients from the command line.

This is annoying, and I’ve run out of ideas. I already killed my ‘tor’ server on it, thinking that maybe it was trying to proxy all my requests for me, as a stab in the dark, but that didn’t work. Obviously.

Anybody have any ideas? I’m kinda stumped.

    ipchains, iptables?
    netstat results there for the socket connection?
