p.s. does anyone know what the dot-quad number is for "www.gnu-pascal.de"? perhaps the server is up but only the name is deleted from the dns database.
Nslookup gives me:
Non-authoritative answer: www.gnu-pascal.de canonical name = tartaglia.dida.physik.uni-essen.de. Name: tartaglia.dida.physik.uni-essen.de Address: 132.252.79.79
