the Ip address of this forum is
the Ip address of this forum is 209.183.226.152
on my internet connection it tacks longer to do the DNS lookup
than it tacks to load the page so I'm replacing the names of
some of my book marks with the dot decmal addresses of the web
sites the command to do this is nslookup linux and windows both
have this command

here is the down side to doing this
if the site is moved to another host this stops working

So if you do this make a backup copy of your bookmark file

You really need to use a public DNS server if you're seeing significant delays.
