Quote - @Cage, as I know, most of your stuff are hosted there. Do you have backup?
My entire site is hosted there. I do have the files backed up, but if I were to re-post anywhere I'd have to rebuild the site structure (haphazard though it may be).
I haven't heard from Mike in a couple of months, so I currently can't access the server myself to update my site at all. But then I've also had a rough time during this period and haven't been very involved with Poser or the community. Hoping to get back to it.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
It has to be something to do with the IPv6 transistion. I can still get on the site, have been able too the whole time that others have not.
Might be worth looking at your isp's home page and see if they have any info posted on the IPv6 transistion.
Most companies said that the transistion would go smoothly, but we all know better than that.
"To err is human, to really foul up requires a computer" Not sure who said that, but it is all too true.

Is Mike one of those MIAs who are assumed to be working on top secret SM projects? Has anyone contected him about this? Or at least tried?

I use Poser 13 and win 10
The problem with the IPv6 theory is that it would surely affect a lot more than one site for Internet power users....

Quote - The problem with the IPv6 theory is that it would surely affect a lot more than one site for Internet power users....
It will affect everything on the affected server based on how the DNS tables update, and if it works on the servers it is pointing too. If a server gets dropped from your DNS list, you can't find it with a browser. If it has an IPv6 address, but that doesn't work, it will time out long before it even tries the IPv4 address.
Like I said earlier, I can get on the site, have been able to the whole time. My internet connection uses both IPv4 and IPv6
The nightmere has only just gotten started with IPv6.
Here are some quotes from a recent article about all the problems that are occuring even thou people have not seen much of it, yet.
"On networks that need to support anything other than a Windows Vista/7 monoculture, it's infeasible to turn off stateless autoconfig, because then some systems simply wouldn't get an IPv6 address. Worse, the information that stateless autoconfig is not in use must be multicast by routers. Just one rogue router that says otherwise can make all hosts create those unpredictable temporary addresses.... "
Another problem...
"If something goes wrong with IPv6, nine out of ten times, nobody even notices: most communication is over IPv4 anyway. And if a session is initiated over IPv6 but then fails, it's usually retried over IPv4 automatically. This may happen after a significant delay, or within a fraction of a second. If users complain, it's not unheard of that IPv6 issues get very low priority. For instance, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard has a serious bug in its DNS code that makes it ignore IPv6 in the DNS when there is a CNAME record involved, a case which is not uncommon. One year and four point updates later, the bug is still there."
Problem gets worse, because what they said no one would notice, is getting noticed. Servers that use IPv6 and pipelining will see problems with the ipv6 router refusing to allow the TCP session to stay open as well.
Another quote:
"An example of the "can't get there from here" problem is the issue with hosts that think they have IPv6, but in reality it doesn't work. Even though we know how to run IPv4 and we know how to run IPv6, we find ourselves in a world where both protocols exist side-by-side, and interact in unexpected ways. Hosts that think they have IPv6 connectivity will try to connect to servers that have an IPv6 address in the DNS over IPv6. But if the IPv6 connectivity then doesn't work, nothing happens for a while until the application times out"
Which equates to "page not found" in a browser.

I can get in quite easily, so it's down to investigating whats going on at your end.
All the best.

So actually that site is a lie as I can get into it, but if I put in the url on that site it says it is down.

Well, the problem is not at Poser Place. It's whatever is between you and it.

Afraid not. If people from various parts of the world cannot get in, it's not simply "their problem." Now, it may not be a Poser Place problem either; it could be that some very key routing in between can't get there.

Someone at runtimedna posted a suggestion that helped him get it. I tried it and it helped me too. I don't know if it will help anyone else but I thought I'd share just in case. Here's the link. http://forum.runtimedna.com/showthread.php?69088-M4-Weight-Mapped-NEXT./page2 It's post #25. Good Luck!

Where there is a problem with url propagation, you should be able to use the DNS number to get to the site. Maybe someone could post the site's DNS number?

This worked for me as well
I used a proxy server that makes it appear that I am in UK.
Site works fine for me that way.
If you want to use such a service, there is list of free servers at :

Quote - Installed the IPv6 protocol on my Windows XP computer, following the advice on thw Microsoft support site.
No avail.
B.
I'd mess something up for sure. So I'm not even going to try it. Besides. I don't even know what a "DNS" is. And given a response at the RDNA forum where someone said "I'm not going to use Google DNS", I'm hesitant too. Google is becoming like a virus these days, and I don't want to give it anymore access to my computer than it already has with me using it as a browser.

Quote - I added 8.8.4.4 after the two DNS numbers that already were in my list. That worked for me.
Where do you find these "DNS numbers?" to add the 8.8.4.4 too?

I followed the instructions here:
https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using
A post above here points to a post at RDNA and that post mentions this page.
The difference is that I didn't put Google's DNS server first but last instead as I felt that it might be safer that way. I'm using a Mac and those instructions were exact, don't know about Windows and Linux, sorry.
Quote - I have used proxy servers from various countries to get to poserplace forum.
If you don't want to use a proxy server, change your DNS to one that knows about Poserplace.
The picture above shows steps to add Google DNS to Windows type system.
Thank you for the picture tutorial! I learn much better from simple pictures.
I followed your instructions, but I still can't get to the PoserPlace site. I still get that the server isn't found.

Not sure why it doesn't connect, the properties panel does caution you to restart connection so new DNS takes. You will also have to close all instances of whatever browser you are using. It seems to hang on to the old DNS until restarted
I'm traveling and can't coneect to Poser Place, nor Cage's freebies using the ISP here...

I just entered the google numbers in dns in my router config and left the computer set for automatic. Worked fine.
Cox won't work at all for poserplace, neither will any of my 3 web servers, which are in 3 separate datacenters- 2 in Houston and 1 in Dallas.
Don't think it's IPV6, the ns records seem to indicate IPV4
It doesn't make sense that the google nameservers would work and the others won't (but google does work), unless google is more forgiving.
I'm thinking the phantom3d dns is screwed up somehow, I did notice some anomolies while digging for the nameserver records but didn't analyze them or anything.
Quote - Here is an image of my set-up.
I just added it to the internet Protocol for IP.V4 as it won't let me change IP version 6.
Fixed it for me! :wub:
